The Ministry of Justice has ban the pending mass protest demonstration planned by the Council of Patriots, headed by Henry Costa, on December 30th intended for the protesters to remain in the streets until their demand is met for President George Weah to step down.
The Ministry of Justice says “it has received a number of requests from individuals, associations and organizations for permits and security protection to stage protests, counter-protests, demonstrations and peaceful assemblies in Monrovia.”
According to the Justice Ministry released today said, “Some of the requests contain words not found in the Constitution, viz, “protest”, “counter-protest” and “demonstration”, while others, in their pronouncements, are advocating a “Weah Step Down” campaign, though not contained in their formal requests.”
