News trending in the political corridors has it that below are a few names of the presumptive first batch of the Boakai-Koung's appointees ahead of January 22nd, 2024:

US$650k Set For Boakai’s- Koung Inauguration As Compared To Weah-Jewel US$900K Setting the first, differences as compared to out-going President, George M. Weah, a total of US$650,000 has been approved for the inauguration of President-elect Amb. Joseph Nyumah Boakai and his deputy, Sen. Jeremiah Koung which is due on 22 January 2024.

Cllr. Dean Faces Senate Confirmation

President Weah’s nominee for the Supreme Court Bench faces an uphill battle as he appear before the Senate’s Judiciary, Human Rights, Claims and Petition Committee this week headed by veteran Lawyer, Cllr. Senator Varney Sherman.

Cllr. Fank Musah Dean, was last week nominated by outgoing President George M. Weah to fill-in a vacancy on the High Court Bench created as the result of an early retirement (request) by Justice Joseph N. Nagbe who has acknowledged his inability to perform based on prolonged illness.

The nomination which seems “controversial” has led to mix reactions within the public, with many criticizing the outgoing President on the timing of the nomination, while others believed that said nomination contradicts his own Executive Order issued recently.

Amidst diverse views with respect to Cllr. Dean’s nomination, People’s TV looks at the legality, qualifications, performance as Justice Minister as well as the nominee suitability to serve as a Supreme Court Justice.

Legality

With a deep sense of respect for opinions on the timing of the nomination, firstly President George M. Weah still possesses all authorities provided for within the 1986 constitution of Liberia until after 12 noon, January 22, 2024.

Article 54 of the Constitution evidently describes the President’s power to nominate individuals to top positions within the Executive, as well as the Judiciary Branches of the Liberian Government.

The Constitution at the same time defines the Senate’s role in scrutinizing, vetting through public hearings and subsequently provide advice and consent.

To end on the views of legality, President Weah nomination of Dean’s to the High Court Bench is supported by the Constitution, the Liberian Senate now bears the responsibility to vet the nominee on the basis of his qualification, legal expertise, suitability, records, and performance as Justice Minister.

QUALIFICATIONS OF Cllr DEAN!!!!!!

With respect to his

An application to grant the start of Doctoral Degree programs in Education and Public Health at the University of Liberia (UL) has been submitted to the National Commission on Higher Education (NCHE) by UL authorities on the Capitol Hill Campus.

The move followed an extended period of intensive consultations, curriculum formulation, content gathering, and design, with participation from educational stakeholders in the sector.

The William V.S. Tubman College of Education and the College of Health Sciences at the UL spearheaded the effort that culminated in a formal submission to the NCHE on December 18, 2023.

Once approved by the commission, the Doctoral Program in Education will offer PhD in Educational Administration, Measurement and Evaluation, Curriculum Study, and Instruction.

Similarly, for the Doctoral Program in Public Health, a Ph.D. will be offered in specialized areas of study including Biomedical Sciences, Epidemiology, and Biostatistics.

According to the UL Vice President for Graduate Education and Research, Dr. Jonathan C. Taylor, there are plans for the Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB) School of International Relations to also launch another doctoral program in Public and International Affairs in 2024.

Dr. Taylor also disclosed a similar plan that is being concluded by the Amos C. Sawyer College of Social Sciences and Humanities to also offer Ph.D. in specialized disciplines.

He expressed the UL Graduate Schools’ readiness to further improve the human resource capacity of Liberians through the provision of terminal degrees in specialized disciplines through research.

“The role of human resource development through research and the advancement of higher education cannot be separated from national development,” Dr. Taylor emphasized.

He further pointed out that Liberia’s demand is for national development and it has therefore become imperative that institutions of higher lear

The US government’s decision to target these individuals and their families is a strong signal that corruption and abuse of public office will not be tolerated. This move follows the previous sanctions imposed on six other high-ranking officials during the George Weah administration for similar offenses, including acts of corruption, abuse of power, and human rights abuses.

They include former Minister of State for Presidential Affairs (President George Weah’s Chief of Office Staff), Nathaniel McGill; Nimba County Senator Prince Y. Johnson; Grand Cape Mount County Senator Varney Sherman; former National Port Authority (NPA) Managing Director Bill Twehway; former Solicitor General Syrenius Cephus; and Monrovia City Mayor Jefferson Koijee were put under US sanctions.

In its press statement last week, CENTAL expressed deep concern regarding the alleged involvement of those high-profile government officials in corruption and human rights abuses, while commending the US for the move.

“We appreciate the strong commitment of the U.S. Government and other development partners in supporting efforts to uphold democracy, fight corruption, and address other crimes and abuses in Liberia,” CENTAL, the national chapter of Transparency International (TI), a global corruption watchdog, said. “We want to urge our development partners to continue taking decisive actions against individuals believed to have violated human rights, engaged in corruption, and undermined the country’s democracy.”

The organization calls on all well-meaning Liberians to join efforts in demanding that the Liberian Government promptly and credibly prosecute individuals accused of corruption in the country.

The sanctions imposed by the U.S. underscore its commitment to holding individuals accountable for corrupt practices and human rights abuses worldwide. Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen stated that these sanctions reaffirm the United States’ dedication to promoting respect for human rights and

A WISE MAN ONCE SAID

1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to;

2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the person that borrowed you remember or ask for it. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes.

3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is giving you a lunch/dinner.

4. Don’t ask awkward questions like ‘Oh so you aren’t married yet?’ Or ‘Don’t you have kids’ or ‘Why didn’t you buy a house?’ Or why don't you buy a car? For God’s sake it isn’t your problem;

5. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It doesn’t matter if it is a guy or a girl, senior or junior. You don’t grow small by treating someone well in public;

6. If you take a taxi with a friend and he/she pays now, try paying next time;

7. Respect different shades of opinions. Remember what's 6 to you will appear 9 to someone facing you. Besides, second opinion is good for an alternative;

8. Never interrupt people talking. Allow them to pour it out. As they say, hear them all and filter them all;

9. If you tease someone, and they don’t seem to enjoy it, stop it and never do it again. It encourages one to do more and it shows how appreciative you're;

10. Say “thank you” when someone is helping you.

11. Praise publicly. Criticize privately;

12. There’s almost never a reason to comment on someone’s weight. Just say, “You look fantastic.” If they want to talk about losing weight, they will;

13. When someone shows you a photo on their phone, don’t swipe left or right. You never know what’s next;

14. If a colleague tells you they have a doctors' appointment, don’t ask what it’s for, just say "I hope you’re okay". Don’t put them in the uncomfortable position of having to tell you their personal illness. If they want you to know, they'll do so without your inquisitiveness;

15. Treat the cleaner with the same respect
