In a communication congratulating President George Weah and Vice President Jewel Howard Taylor, Mr. Cummings said their ascendancy to the nation’s highest seats should be in the good interest of Liberians.
“As they work for the good of Liberia and its people, let us all remain steadfast in our collective pursuit of peace and prosperity for our country.
“May God grant them wisdom and courage in the days ahead as they lead our nation.
“God bless President George Manneh Weah and Vice President Jewel Howard Taylor, and may God bless The Republic of Liberia,” Cumming said.
The ANC Political leader was one of those very vocal on Weah’s competence for the presidency, challenging him at one point in time to show up for a presidential debate to defend his policies outlined during the campaign period.
Though Cummings was uncompromising in his presidential quest to ensure that Liberia becomes better during the 2017 presidential polls, he was amongst the first batch of presidential hopeful to congratulate President Weah following result from the second round of the presidential poll.
During that congratulatory message, Cummings urged that the Weah-led administration gives more priority to freedom of speech and association as well as other tenets of democracy.
