President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf is stepping down after two terms as Africaâs first democratically elected female president. The National Election Commission announced on Friday that Mr. Weah had won with 61.5 percent of the vote.
âI know a lot of people wonder why an ex-footballer should seek the presidency of the country but no one asks a lawyer or a businessman why they do the same,â Weah went on, clearly irked by critics who say he lacks the experience required to deal with the complexities of Liberiaâs economic and social issues, which made governance a huge challenge for the outgoing president, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, a Harvard University-trained economist who won a share of the 2011 Nobel peace prize.
