Liberia’s House Probes Leak of Ex-President’s Wealth Declaration: Corruption Scandal Unveiled

Liberia’s House of Representatives is investigating the leak of former President George Weah’s asset declaration documents.

The country requires all senior government officials, including presidents, to declare their wealth before the Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission (LACC) to avoid conflicts of interest and illicit wealth accumulation.

Local legislator Frank Saah Foko has called for a probe, arguing that publishing Weah’s documents without his consent is illegal.

The leak remains unclear, but legislators have summoned senior LACC officials to appear. Weah’s presidency was marked by corruption accusations.
