The ALM, also unveiled its 2023 Magazine, with Liberia’s Deputy Speaker on the cover in his honor, with a bold inscription, Legislative Excellence.
“A very distinguished lawmaker has become a beacon of hope to the seemingly voiceless sections of the (Liberian) people since he began to challenge old-age norms and traditions that are injurious to the populace. Among several other milestone achievements, he is known to be at the forefront of increasing women’s representation in Liberia,” the ALM wrote on the cover.
