-As members mandate PUL leadership to boycott meeting with President Weah
At a mass meeting in Monrovia on Friday, the general membership of the Press Union of Liberia (PUL) has unanimously voted to suspend their Vice President Octavin Williams for time indefinite.
The PUL members have therefore mandated him to face the National Media Council to answer to charges of disrespect to the general membership which represents congress.
The action was taken after PUL Vice President Williams refused to attend the mass meeting of the PUL and publicly expressed support for Minister Nagbe’s characterization of the union as a “useless” body.
The general membership of the Press Union of Liberia (PUL) has also upheld the suspension of Information Minister Lenn Eugene Nagbe for branding the PUL as a“useless” organization.
The decision was taken at a well-attended mass meeting of the membership at the PUL headquarters on Friday, December 28, 2018.
Meanwhile, the PUL membership also mandated the PUL leadership to stay away from a meeting scheduled by Liberia’s President George M. Weah with media executives on Friday, December 28, 2018.
The Liberian leader called the meeting at his office in Monrovia, in the wake of the increasing attacks on the media by officials of the CDC government.
