Report by Lennart Dodoo, [email protected]Joint resolution signed by the Legislature on April 17 which clearly stated that the state of emergency was effective as of April 10, 2020. I just read a Frontpage Africa news quoting Justice Minister Musa Dean as saying the State of Emergency ends on 21st June. This means, the State of Emergency ceases to exit starting at 11:59 on June 9 WITHOUT a legislative renewal. That the State of Emergency is approved for a period of up to sixty (60) days from its effective date of April 10, 2020. Accordingly, the Minister of Justice hereby also clarifies that, unless otherwise extended by a Joint Resolution of the Legislature and approved by President Weah, the State Of Emergency shall expire on the 21st day of June 2020.”
