Monrovia - Senator Steve Zargo of Liberty Party and Lofa County has disclosed that he will be contesting for the seat of the Senate Pro-Tempore post in the pending election to elect a new Pro-tempore. The new Pro-Tempore will replace Senator Armah Z. Jallah of Gbarpolu County. Sen. Jallah, who has not shown interest to contest, was ending the tenure of former Grand Bassa County Senator Gbezhongar Findley, who was not re-elected during the 2014 Senatorial by-election. Sen. Zargo said his pursuit is to provide the leadership that will work selflessly with the new government in answering to the calls of the Liberian people. Prior to his Monday declaration, the Lofa County lawmaker, on December 5th, 2017, addressed a communication to Senate Pro-temp Jallah expressing his intent to contest for the position of the Senate Pro-Tempore in the event Senator George Weah wins the runoff election.
