Liberia’s House Majority Bloc Suspends Representative Yekeh Kolubah for 30 Days

The House Majority Bloc in Liberia has suspended Representative Yekeh Kolubah for 30 session days due to accusations of rude behavior towards House leadership. The decision followed a report from James Kolleh and saw majority support, with a few lawmakers voting against it.

In Monrovia, the House Majority Bloc has officially voted to suspend Yekeh Kolubah, a Representative from Montserrado County, for a duration of 30 session days. The resolution was passed following the presentation of a report by James Kolleh, a lawmaker from Bong County, representing the House Committee on Rules, Order, and Administration.

The suspension arises from a complaint made by River Gee County Representative Johnson Williams, who accused Mr. Kolubah of displaying disrespectful behavior towards the current leadership of the House. A significant majority of lawmakers endorsed the suspension, although Representatives Matthew Joe, Emmanuel Dahn, and Sumo Mulbah expressed their dissenting votes against the measure.

The House Majority Bloc’s decision to suspend Representative Yekeh Kolubah underscores the importance of decorum and respect within legislative proceedings. Despite some opposition to the suspension, the majority voted in favor, demonstrating a strong stance against behaviors deemed inappropriate by the House leadership. This incident highlights ongoing tensions within the legislative body and the need for adherence to established standards of conduct.
