Montserrado County District #10 Representative, Hon. Yekeh Kolubah, has made a powerful declaration of his unwavering support for House Speaker J. Fonati Koffa. His passionate words emphasized his commitment to the speaker, the Liberian people, and the rule of law, while also issuing a cautionary note about the potential consequences of disregarding legal frameworks.
Kolubah, known for his outspokenness and fiery rhetoric, stated,
“If I, Hon. Yekeh Kolubah, ever betrayed the Speaker, may God take away my life. I will remain with the Speaker to the last. I am on the side of the Liberian people and the law to the fullest.”
These words underscore a profound sense of loyalty to Speaker Koffa and a dedication to upholding the principles of justice and governance.
However, his statement also carried a stern warning. Kolubah lamented the current lack of respect for the law, cautioning that such disregard could have dire consequences in the future.
“If the law can’t be respected now, in 2029 we will not listen to the court because that time we will be looking at numbers, not the law anymore,”
he warned. This comment reflects growing frustrations among some Liberians over perceived inconsistencies in the enforcement and application of justice, hinting at a potential tipping point if these issues persist.
His remarks come at a critical time in Liberia’s political landscape, where questions about governance, transparency, and accountability dominate public discourse. By aligning himself firmly with Speaker Koffa, he signals a united front within the legislature, particularly in addressing challenges facing the nation.
As Liberia continues to navigate its democratic journey, voices like Yekeh Kolubah’s serve as both a rallying cry for justice and a reminder of the delicate balance required to sustain the rule of law. His call for respect for legal institutions is one that resonates deeply, especially in a country where political stability and the rule of law are pivotal to progress.
While his choice of words may spark debate, one thing is clear: Hon. Yekeh Kolubah’s passion for the Liberian people and his vision for a just society remain central to his mission. The question now is whether his bold statements will inspire action or further fuel the ongoing political conversations shaping the nation’s future.
For Liberia to move forward, respect for the rule of law and unity among leaders must remain non-negotiable. Kolubah’s loyalty to Speaker Koffa is a testament to the strength of collaboration, but it is also a challenge to all Liberians to ensure that the law is respected—not just in words, but in practice.
