In West Africa, Liberia's President George Weah has reached out to his challenger in the presidential race, Joseph Boakai, to extend his congratulations on Boakai's victory. In an address to the nation, President Weah stated that "the Liberian people have spoken, and their voices have been heard." Boakai, the opposition candidate, holds an insurmountable lead of 28,000 votes, with nearly all ballots counted.
A former football star, Weah has been in power since 2018 and is set to step down in January. He initially won the election against Boakai by a significant margin, riding a wave of enthusiasm, particularly from younger voters. However, during his tenure, there has been a perception that he failed to effectively address issues such as corruption, rising prices, and ongoing economic difficulties, which has affected his public image.
