In a powerful call to action, Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission (LACC) Executive Chairperson, Cllr. Alexandra K. Zoe, has emphasized the urgent need for an Anti-Corruption Court in Liberia. Her remarks, made on March 5, 2025, during the NAYMOTE-Liberia Summit for Democracy and Political Accountability, echoed a strong stance against the systemic corruption plaguing the nation and highlighted the challenges the Commission faces in delivering swift justice. Since Cllr. Zoe assumed leadership of the LACC, her tenure has been marked by a relentless commitment to combating corruption and enhancing the Commission’s capacity to hold wrongdoers accountable. Speaking at a panel discussion on improving public sector governance, Cllr. Zoe addressed the critical delays in corruption cases due to the overwhelming workload of Criminal Court C, which is tasked with handling both corruption cases and civil matters. Her vision for an Anti-Corruption Court, she explained, would enable the LACC to expedite the judicial process and ensure that those involved in corruption face justice in a timely manner. “The delay in handling corruption cases is often due to the limited capacity of the current court system. When an Anti-Corruption Court is established, our cases will be dealt with more quickly, and the Commission’s work will run more smoothly,” Cllr. Zoe stated, reinforcing the need for a specialized judicial body to combat the country’s corruption crisis. Throughout her tenure, Cllr. Zoe has led the LACC in broadening its mandate, ensuring not only that investigations and prosecutions are carried out, but that public education about the dangers of corruption is prioritized. She also underscored the importance of asset recovery, noting that stolen assets are returned to the government for the benefit of all citizens. Additionally, Cllr. Zoe shared updates on the LACC’s ongoing decentralization efforts, which have extended the Commission’s reach to remote regions such as Gbarnga in Bong County and Nimba, with plans to visit Bomi County soon. In an effort to modernize operations, she also highlighted the ongoing digitalization of the asset declaration process, allowing Liberians to declare their assets remotely and with ease. The NAYMOTE-Liberia Summit provided a platform for influential leaders to discuss transparency and accountability in Liberia, with Finance Minister Augustine KpeheNgafuan, General Auditing Commission Auditor General P. Garswa Jackson, and others joining Cllr. Zoe in this vital conversation. her remarks, Cllr. Zoe called on all key stakeholders to support the creation of the Anti-Corruption Court, reinforcing that Liberia’s future hinges on the capacity to confront and root out corruption at every level of governance. As the LACC continues its fight under Cllr. Zoe’s leadership, the Commission’s focus on integrity and justice stands as a testament to its dedication to the nation’s democratic progress.
