Deputy Director of Legal Affairs for the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Baba Jamal says the final ruling given by the seven Justices of the Supreme Court on the 2020 election petition does not come as a surprise.
According to the former Member of Parliament for Akwatia Constituency in the Eastern Region, the judgment given by the Supreme Court is not something new as the legal team of the petitioner has seen several of the rulings of the court which did not go in their favour.
Speaking on
Okay FM’s Ade Akye Abia Morning Show, Baba Jamal maintained that the final ruling of the 2020 election petition was just an icing on the cake, looking at the way proceedings went during the hearing.

Senator-Elect Brownie J. Samukai of Lofa County
In Liberia’s democratic form of governance, the Constitution is the supreme and fundamental law of the country and its provisions are binding, have force, and effect on all authorities and persons throughout the Republic. What’s concerning is the institution, Justice Ministry, assigned the obligation to ensure truth, justice, and integrity is found in violation with an impunity-a case in point is the pickle of The Liberian Senate, Justice Ministry, and Samukai’s Senatorial win.
The recent midterm Senatorial election under the presidency of George Weah, held on the 8th of December, 2020, has revealed some fundamental issues of governance involving actors within the three branches of government over Lofa County Senator-elect Brownie J Samukai: the Justice Minister and Solicitor General’s communications to the National Elections Commissioners, and the Liberian Senate’s exercise of oversight into the matter.
