In a move that suggests a desire to unite the country after the recent presidential run-off election, the president-elect of Liberia, George Weah has asked his opponent to suggest capable candidates for appointment into his government.

The former football star who won a landslide in the December 26, 2017 run-off election, visited his opponent in the election and the outgoing vice president, Joseph Boakai.

Mr. Weah wrote in his Facebook page that he visited Mr Boakai on New Year’s Day as “a sign of solidarity and good will”, saying the election was over and that Liberia was the true winner.

“I informed him that Liberia is the true winner, and that we must all work collectively in the best interest of our Country,” he wrote.

“I further intimated that he’s a man of impeccable character and experience, and that his expertise will be needed in order to move our Country forward. I further assured him that he will be granted due courtesy according to the law as a statesman and outgoing VP.

“Finally, I did suggest to him to put forth his people that he believes are capable of helping us move Liberia forward. Happy new year to you all,” he wrote.

Mr Boakai conceded defeat to Mr Weah even before the final results of the election was announced. He explained that he did so because he wanted to prevent bloodshed.

“I reject any temptation of imposing pain, hardship, agony, and uncertainty upon our people. My name will not be used as an excuse for one drop of human blood to be spilled in this country,” he said.

“Earlier today, I paid a courtesy visit to the Honorable Vice President, Hon. Joseph Nyumah Boakai as a sign of solidarity and good will; and to wish him happy new year. I expressed to him that the elections are over now, and that there’s no winner here.

“I informed him that Liberia is the true winner, and that we must all work collectively in the best interest of our Country. I further intimated that he’s a man of impeccable character and experience, and that his expertise will be needed in order to move our Country forward. I further assured him that he will be granted due courtesy according to the law as a statesman and outgoing VP.

“Finally, I did suggest to him to put forth his people that he believes are capable of helping us move Liberia forward. Happy new year to you all.

“May God bless you.”

Our own president will rather appoint dead men than let this happen

Mynd44 lalasticlala please come and help us appoint dead men for George Weah.

we need dese kind of leaders in nigeria who will look above differences (gender, political affiliations, region and ethnicity and especially religion)
but seriously, can we rest from news about weah...lets focus on our own kwantry

Another African Hero in the making.

Over here we look for our old uncles to appoint COS...
Our sisters to make commissioner for happiness and ovulations.
Dead and buried party fellows as board members.


No wonder our amiable, patriotic, gentle, loving, project oriented, ever smiling and the best president Nigeria EVER produced took out time to baptized you with encomium.


Mr George u'r indeed the future of African democracy after Mr GEJ.




Oh I forget..... initials starts with G.

Leadership is a call to service but here in Nigeria, it's a call to be served (and that's if we even truly have leaders nd not rulers).
Still waiting for this to happen between APC and PDP.

Good one Weah
