Liberia: Eight Senators Plan to Withdraw from Impeachment Trial of Justice Ja’neh

Clockwise: Senators Armah Jallah (Gbarpolu), Oscar Cooper (Margibi), Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence (Grand Bassa), Dr. Henrique Tokpa (Bong), Daniel Naathan (Gbarpolu), Sando Johnson (Bomi), Conmany Wesseh (River Gee) and Steve Zargo (Lofa)

MONROVIA – Eight members of the Senate are likely to hold a press conference later today to disassociate themselves from the ongoing impeachment trial of Associate Justice Kabineh M. Ja’neh.

The Senate is expected to, through a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ vote, either concur with the House of Representatives on the impeachment of the embattled Supreme Court Justice or deny the impeachment.

Justice Ja’neh is accused of theft of property, illegal acquisition of property constituting abuse of power and misconduct by granting a petition that stopped government from accessing its revenue through the Road Fund from petroleum dealers.

The Senators include Dr. Henrique Tokpah (Ind. Bong County), Oscar Cooper (Ind. Margibi County), Armah Jallah (NPP, Gbarpolu), Conmany Wesseh (UP, River Gee), Daniel Naathan (ANC, Gbarpolu), Steve Zargo (LP, Lofa) and Sando Johnson (NPP, Bomi) and Nyounblee Karnga-Lawrence (LP, Grand Bassa).
