Present Political Scenario in Liberia
The illegitimate elimination of the speaker of the fifty fifth National Legislature, Chairman, Cllr. Jonathan Fonati Koffa isn’t according to our nation’s (LIBERIA) Constitution. Despite what the structure stipulates relating to the process of how any speaker may be changed or impeached by the bulk in a bit of the House of Representatives legally. A vote of forty-nine have to be certificated as acknowledged by Article 43 of the structure of Liberia’s Governing Law, the Constitution.

The Supreme Court of Liberia clearly decided to permit Cllr. Jonathan Fonati Koffa to be the legit speaker of the House of Representative of Liberia as a consequence of constitutional election amongst his friends. To impeach him, can’t be imposed by the Executive Branch of the Government of Liberia or the president of Liberia (Hon. Joseph Nyumah Boakai). The ruling of the Supreme Court of Liberia have to be acknowledged as the ultimate chapter about this subject/episode with out interfering with any authorities official.
During the procedural elimination of the speaker of the House of Representatives, the structure of the Government of Liberia mandates {that a} quorum have to be offered and a presiding officer chair the session. The present presiding officer is the chairman: Cllr. Jonathan Fonati Koffa. Finally, through the absence of the speaker, the deputy speaker legally assumed the function of the speaker. Why is it so obscure this portion of the structure of the Republic of Liberia?
The majority group of the legislators didn’t meet the requirement of the legal guidelines accordingly. Therefore, their actions about impeaching the Chairman (Cllr. Jonathan Fonati Koffa) violated the structure of Liberia execution correctly.
The residents of Liberia have to be apprehensive about how our present authorities of Liberia and the Unity Party led Government is being proof against understanding and interpretation of the structure of Liberia, leaving ambiguous concern within the thoughts of the residents of Liberia.
