President of Liberia, George Weah has announced that
he will be contesting for re-election.
In his annual state of the nation address, Mr Weah
said he would be calling on Liberians to renew for a second time the mandate
they gave him six years ago.
Liberia's general elections are scheduled for October this year.
Meanwhile, Mr Weah has been accused of economic
mismanagement during his time in office.
Last year, the United States imposed sanctions on a
number of senior Liberian officials over corruption allegations, including Mr
Weah’s chief of staff.
