By Benson Matic Mokko, Margibi County Correspondent Margibi Co.: Pastor Morris Fahn has made a commitment to educate the citizens of Liberia about the procedure of impeachment set forth in the Liberian Constitution and other bodies of law.

Grand Gedeh County Senator Zoe Emmanuel Pennue is calling on the Liberian Senate to focus on the issue of disadvantaged youth, commonly known as “Zogoes”. According to Senator Pennue, the alarming rate of zogoes in Monrovia and the various Counties should be taken as a national emergency.

Boakai was leading Weah 1.16 percent when the latter placed a call…
