This appointment follows the suspension of the previous Acting Chairperson, Abdullah L. Kamara, and underscores the government’s dedication to strengthening key sectors essential for national growth.

    In his official communication, President Boakai expressed confidence in Mr. Massaquoi’s ability to steer the telecommunications sector with integrity, diligence, and unwavering loyalty to Liberia. The President emphasized that the appointment reflects his ongoing efforts to ensure capable leadership within vital institutions, fostering an environment conducive to economic development and technological advancement. “I am confident that Honorable Clarence Massaquoi will serve with the highest standards of professionalism and dedication as he takes on this critical role,” President Boakai stated.

    Clarence Massaquoi, a seasoned professional with extensive experience in telecommunications and public service, brings a wealth of expertise to the position.
