The candidate for the 2019 Montserrado County Senatorial By-Election for the four Collaborating Political Parties, Mr. Abraham Darius Dillon officially launched his campaign at the Liberty Party’s headquarters in Congo Town yesterday. Mr. Dillon expressed his disenchantment over what he termed as ‘campaign violence and misbehavior’ that is ongoing in District #15 of Montserrado County; citing the destruction of campaign materials belonging to Telia Urey who is a representative candidate in the ensuing by-elections.
He condemned the act in the district and said it is uncivilized and pointed out that those responsible for the ruthlessness belong to the camp of the ruling establishment, the Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC) and called on the National Elections Commission (NEC) and the Liberia National Police (LNP) to swiftly intervene and bring the perpetrators to justice in order to avoid its recurrence.
