Liberia faces demands to cancel major immigration digitization contract
What happened
The National Polit-Bureau of Liberia called for the complete cancellation of the Resident Permit Digitization Agreement between the Government of Liberia and Contec Global Liberia Limited. The organization criticized the administration of former President George Manneh Weah for signing the deal, which reportedly involves a revenue-sharing arrangement where the Liberian government receives 40 percent of proceeds and Contec Global retains 60 percent. The NPBL urged the government to publish the original signed agreement.
