Action by the President will also serve to protect the image of the Government and the dignity of the Office of the Vice President. From a country which produced the first democratically elected female president in Africa, much more respect and recognition of women is expected by Liberian women and women globally. The Liberia Women Leaders Network (LWLN) renews its appeal to President Weah to take urgent action to restore normalcy to the functioning of the Office of the Vice President, by authorizing the needed multisectoral support so that the Office of the Vice President may become more wholesome and functional. About the Liberia Women Leaders Network: The Liberia Women leaders Network is one of 10 chapters of the African Women’s Leaders Network, an action-oriented initiative formed in 2017 by the African Union and UN Women to enhance the leadership of African women in bringing transformative changes, focusing on peace, security and development.
