Sheikh Al Moustapha Kouyateh, senatorial hopeful of Montserrado CountyMonrovia – Sheikh Al Moustapha Kouyateh, a senatorial hopeful of Montserrado County in the pending special election, has frowned at “self-glorification” by some members of the Liberian Senate. Kouyateh is amongst few names popping up to compete for the Montserrado County seat, which is currently being occupied by Senator Abraham Darius Dillon of the Liberty Party. Kouyateh contested the 2014 senatorial elections that brought President George Weah to the upper house but he earned some of the least votes. At the same time, Kouyateh has backed calls for the establishment of a War Crimes Court in Liberia. The Montserrado County Senatorial hopeful said the establishment of a War Crimes Court in Liberia will erase the memories from the minds of those who were victimized during the Liberian civil crisis.
