Following empty promises and an unsuccessful first term as president, it's time for Weah to go. A poor economy and unchecked corruption remain Liberia's primary concerns six years later, and Weah has only shown that he's not adept at finding solutions to these problems. As the threat of military coups continues to loom over many West African states, Liberia must use its democratic autonomy to vote for positive change instead of the status quo.
Though Weah's first term in office may not have been exceptional, he succeeded in maintaining both the country's political and macroeconomic stability. He has also improved security with little to no external support, contributed to regional peace, and consistently passed the Millennium Challenge Corporation scorecards. Additionally, he's the only candidate who has the strength and energy to heal the nation from polarization.
