According to what we are hearing, gas provided for the buses was misused by people in charge,” an ordinary worker at the legislature told this newspaper. FrontPageAfrica called Representative Marvin Cole of Bong County, who Co-chairs the Rules, Order and Administration Committee to ask why the buses are parked. It was reported that Rep. Cole had allegedly reduced the quantity of coupons for some lawmakers and diverted same to his personal use. The Montserrado County’s lawmaker, widely known as a ‘no nonsense’ man, immediately, forcefully confiscated Cole’s mobile phone, in demand of his remaining coupons. According to him, someone in the leadership had attempted taking about US$13,000 intended for coupons for personal use.
