The Plenary of the House of Representatives has voted to cite the Armed Forces of Liberia (AFL) Chief of Staff (CoS) and the managing director of the Forestry Development Authority (FDA).
The pair are to appear before the House’s leadership on Monday, July 6.
The incitation followed a communication Sinoe County Electoral District #3 Representative Alex S. Noah submitted to his colleagues.
Noah, in his communication, requested the appearance of the pair, with the Country Director of the Wild Chimpanzee Foundation (WCF) for a conference.
The conference, according to the communication, intends to address matters relating to activities at the Sarpo National Park. The communication also requested that officials provide updates regarding the deployment of AFL personnel alongside other paramilitary officers assigned with operational mandates at the Park, and the effectiveness of those operations.
Rep. Noah further indicated in the communication that the engagement seeks to provide greater insight into activities taking place within the “protected area,” and strengthen the legislature’s oversight responsibilities.
He also noted that the discussions intends to provide an in-depth understanding of ongoing interventions and developments within the park to enable the lawmakers to effectively carry out their constitutional oversight mandate.
Following deliberations on the communication, plenary agreed to cite the relevant officials to appear before lawmakers on Monday to provide the requested information and updates.
In a related development, the House voted to endorse and pass proposed amendments to section 5.2 of the Code of Conduct (CoC).
Montserrado County Electoral District #12 Representative, Jerry Yogboh, recently submitted the section to fellow lawmakers.
Plenary took the decision on Tuesday, June 20, 2026, during the 15th Day Sitting of the Second Quarter of the Third Session following the presentation and consideration of a joint committee report on the proposed amendment.
Following deliberations, Plenary voted to adopt the committee’s recommendation, and subsequently passed the amendment, forwarding the matter to the Senate for concurrence.
