The office of Senator Prince K. Moye, has publicly denounced Nimba County District #7 Representative, Musa Hassan Bility for “spreading falsehoods, and misleading claims” about development in Bong County.
Moye chairs the Senate Committee on Ways, Means, Finance and Budget.
The feud ignited after a video circulated in which Rep. Bility accused Sen. Moye of failing to deliver roads, bridges and other infrastructure projects, even challenging him to outperform his record.
Moye’s office dismissed these accusations as “politically motivated, and completely unfounded, noting that the role of a senator is to responsibly manage national resources; ensure fair and equitable development in all the counties; not to favor one over the nation.”
The statement further revealed that Bong County development has been hindered by China Union’s failure to remit over US$10 million in social development funds owed since 2015.
Bility, it said, has personally benefited from petroleum storage operations generating more than US$42.7 million, while shielding the company from accountability.
“In this context, Rep. Bility is not promoting development in the county; he is obstructing it,” the Senator office said.
The office highlighted Sen. Moye’s proven track record in infrastructure, health, education, youth, women empowerment, and economic inclusion, while condemning Bility’s opposition to a Senate measure adjusting petroleum storage fees at the Liberia Petroleum Refining Company.
This move was reportedly designed to fund rural roads, bridges and social programs.
The statement thus warned: “The people of Bong County will not be distracted by empty rhetoric or temporary ‘sell-pay’ projects. Development is not a show. It is a service.”
His office said, Sen. Moye, a three-time consecutive election winner, remains committed to advancing Bong County, and the country through transparency, national equity, and sustainable development, while urging Rep. Bility to prioritize accountability over political theatrics.
