McGill beeping with smiles received his certificated yesterday, Monday, July 3, 2023 bragged of his quest to robustly campaign aimed capturing the Margibi County Senatorial seat.
Speaking recently with a local daily, McGill says after his sanction by the United States Government, he inquired from a U.S. Congressional Delegation that visited Liberia and honored him for his outstanding leadership in Liberia on February 12, 2022, about the sanction and they expressed dismay that it was not possible that he would become a victim of U.S. sanction.
According to Mr. McGill, now a senatorial aspirant for Margibi County, the congressional people told him that before coming to honor him in Liberia, the U.S national security gave them a clearance to honor him for his outstanding leadership, indicating that they did not see the possibility of a sanction.
