Fears of a return to the nation’s bloody past appears to be awakening in face of what most agree is a sharp decline in respect for the rule of law. And this is happening under the George Weah administration.
Just why President Weah does not seem to understand the dangers implicit in a decline of the rule of the law is troubling. Under his watch, several mysterious deaths/murders of government functionaries have gone unsolved. State security or their hirelings have been linked to most of these unsolved murder cases.
But most troubling is the impunity associated with these acts. For instance, most acts of violence perpetrated against civilians by Police officers have gone unpunished. In some instances even Police officers have fallen victim to such violence, which have of course gone with impunity.
