Press Statement for Immediate Release

Office of Hon Munah E. Pelham-Youngblood
Representative, District #: 9 Montserrado County
Email: [email protected] Tel: +231 777638617

Attn:
Media Practitioners, Residents of District #: 9, Followers of News outlets (Traditional and Social Media) and the General Public

February 24, 2020: The Office of Rep Munah E. Pelham-Youngblood, representative of electoral district 9, Montserrado County has refuted the claim that Hon Pelham-Youngblood instructed some of her supporters to brutalize resident(s) of the district who was attending the district Town Hall Meeting intended for the lawmaker to present her annual report. This alleged claim has been reported on social media and other traditional media (radio & newspapers) without independently verifying it.

Hon Pelham-Youngblood’s office further clarifies that the gathering was peaceful from start to end and that there was no report of violence, neither an act of lawlessness reported; nor brought to the attention of the lawmaker. The office marvels on why people will be parading on social media accusing the district lawmaker of being the mastermind of said allegation. The office calls on individuals residing in the district to focus on vices that will bring development and promote peace and reconciliation rather than venturing on an unachievable propaganda with selfish political interest. The release states that the claim has no iota of truth as those making said allegation cannot disclose the name of the victim nor the perpetrator in such an unwarranted situation.

Additionally, the release is quoted that the Honorable remains a peaceful person as the representative of the district and will not support any act of hooliganism that has the propensity to endanger the safety of other peaceful citizens, and as such the office is willing to assist a genuine/sincere investigation to establishing the validity of the assertion been made—although the allegation is still treated as been unsubstantiated as those making the allegation have not presented pieces of evidence to substantiate such claim.
