President George M. Weah delivered his farewell address to the nation at 8 pm on January 21, 2024, marking the conclusion of his term.
This sets the stage for the inauguration of President-elect Joseph Nyumah Boakai, scheduled for 8:00 AM today at the Capitol Building in Monrovia.
Despite securing a significant mandate from the Liberian people in 2017, President Weah faced a political shift and was defeated by former Vice President Boakai in the second round of the 2023 presidential election on November 14, 2023.
President Weah’s farewell speech primarily focused on the transition to the incoming Boakai-led government, addressing key national concerns.
Reflecting on the achievements and challenges of his tenure, he bid farewell to the citizens and residents of Liberia.
The inauguration of President-elect Boakai marks a new chapter for Liberia, with the nation anticipating the policies and vision that will shape its future under the Boakai administration.
The historic event will take place at the Capitol Building in Monrovia, commencing at 8:00 AM on January 22, 2024.
As Liberia undergoes this peaceful transfer of power, the nation hopes for a seamless handover and a continued commitment to the prosperity and well-being of its people.
