Nimba County — Nimba County District One Representative-Elect, Samuel Brown endorses the re-election bid of President George Weah in the 14 November Runoff election.

Rep. Brown told his supporters in Ganta, Nimba County that his decision to support President Weah is based on the level of transformation and development being undertaken across the country by the Weah administration.

He notes that Liberia is one of the oldest African countries, but lacks infrastructural development mainly roads and it's under the administration of President Weah that citizens are boasting of road connectivity.

"Since 1847, it's under this administration which is the CDC government that citizens are and can now boast about many development activities across the country", he notes.

Rep. Brown describes the CDC-led government as the best and only hope Liberians now have and can boast of, compared to past administrations.

The district number one representative Samuel Brown then vowed to be involved in campaign activities in other districts including district number two toward the rest of the districts in the County.

Nimba County campaign chairman for ruling CDC, Reginald Mehn, and defeated candidate Roland Duo vow to encourage more Nimbaians to vote for the President.
