In all honesty, the Liberian public should not be surprised at these divisive developments in the ruling party. Some time ago, for reasons no one could understand, President Sirleaf started playing a game of political dribble. This is despite the President’s public declaration earlier that she was supporting Vice President Boakai’s presidential bid. But given the gravity of the commotion that has rocked UP, the party has publicly demonstrated anything but unity, cohesiveness and maturity. Should UP not win, it will go out not as the Unity Party, but as the shamefully and woefully Divided Party.
