Liberian President Joseph Boakai is facing a $10m lawsuit filed before the ECOWAS Community Court of Justice in Abuja, Nigeria.

The suit alleges his involvement in the unlawful suspension and character assassination of Liberia’s Director General of the National Fisheries and Aquaculture Authority, Ms. Emma Glassco.

The lawsuit claims that in February, President Boakai arbitrarily suspended Glassco over alleged “financial inefficiency.”

The Republic of Liberia is named as the sole respondent in the suit.

Filed on Monday, March 14, 2025, and marked ECW/CCJ/APP/19/25, the lawsuit was submitted by Glassco’s legal team, led by former Chief Justice of Liberia Kabineh Ja’nneh, and attorney Sayma Cephus.

The suit argues that Glassco’s suspension violated due process.

Glassco further asserts that she was never investigated or found guilty by any anti-corruption agency in Liberia.

However, she alleges that her reputation was tarnished by the suspension, which she contends was carried out without legal procedures.

She claims that the decision portrayed her as a person lacking integrity.
