In the midst of mysterious death and assassination attacks against prominent citizens in Liberia, the Montserrado Senator, Abraham Darius Dillon, alarms threats against his life, notified the Justice Ministry, the Liberian Senate as well as the diplomatic missions accredited near Monrovia just in case.
On Sunday March 12, Senator Dillon took on his Facebook Social media stating that an individual only identified as, Otis Simeon Gorgor has accused him with other opposition Lawmakers for financial supporting the University of Liberia students to act violently against the ruling Coalition for Democratic Change government officials at their campuses and planning to attack his home, the home of Grand Bassa Sen. Nyomblee Karnga Lawrence and Montserrado district #10 Lawmaker Yekeh Kolubah on Tuesday March 14 this year.
“Someone sent me a screenshot of one “Otis Simeon Gorgor” alleging that I, along with Sen. Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence and Rep. Yekeh Kolubah met with members of the Student Unification Party (SUP) and “paid” them to instigate violence on the main campuses of the University of Liberia.
At first, I laughed it off because it is not true and saw it funny as even the very SUP declared the UL Campuses a “No-Go Zone” for me nearly two years now for a view I expressed against the “Progressives” regarding the infamous 1979 “Rice Riot”. So, how it is being alleged that we met and sat with SUP functionaries to “plan violence” is very laughable tho”! Sen. Dillon explains on his Facebook account.
According to him, friends, supporters and family members, home and abroad have forwarded several of the screenshots from different Posters conveying the same messages and expressing concerns and fears about his safety and well-being. “We are convinced that this is being well-coordinated, engineered and spread around by the very folks behind this concoction and devilish act”.
The Montserrado Senator however maintained that it’s not surprising that the Liberia National Police under Patrick Sudue watch will simply play a “blind eye” to these public threats being posted against them even though it’s the Police responsibility to protect every life and property within the territory boundary of the Country.
