Liberia: Weah, Cummings, Three Others Sign Opposition Pact Against Boakai
[Liberian Investigator] Former President George Weah and Alexander Cummings, a founder of the opposition coalition built to unseat him, joined three other opposition leaders Sunday in a pact to confront President Joseph Nyuma Boakai's government. They deliberately left open the question that destroyed that coalition: who leads the ticket.
Former President George Weah and Alexander Cummings, along with three other opposition leaders, have signed a pact to hold President Joseph Nyuma Boakai's government accountable. The five leaders signed a joint communique at Sinkor Palace, pledging to address national concerns rather than electoral calculations. They accuse the Boakai government of losing territory to Guinea, running a selective fight against corruption and drugs, defying the Supreme Court, and using a new cybercrime law against critics.
However, the leaders refused to discuss the 2029 presidential election, stating that the arrangement may become an electoral alliance in the future. The communique emphasizes that each party retains its identity and organization, with no merger or shared leadership structure.
