Liberia: Hor Cites Justice Ministry, Police and County Authorities Over Missing Grebo Citizens in Grand Gedeh

What the report says

Liberia’s House of Representatives has summoned officials from the Ministry of Justice, the Liberia National Police, the Grand Gedeh County Attorney and the county police commander to provide an update on the case of missing citizens in Grand Gedeh County. The request came after a communication from River Gee County District Two Representative Isaac B. Choloplay Wuo, who asked the legislature to intervene over the reported disappearance of two Grebo citizens in May 2026.

According to the report published by The New Republic and distributed by AllAfrica, Wuo also raised concerns about the death of Grebo elder Sam Geekor, whose body was reportedly found on October 23, 2026, as well as demonstrations that followed in Zwedru. He urged the authorities to explain the status of investigations and outline security measures meant to protect residents, reduce tensions and prevent further violence.

The lawmaker said the appeal was not meant to assign blame before the investigations are complete. The House’s action is aimed at securing official briefings on the missing persons case, the reported death and efforts to preserve peace in the county. The report also says Wuo and another representative are expected to visit Grand Gedeh to help organize a town hall meeting with the affected family and local residents.
