George Weah’s supporters are demonstrating in central Monrovia today. All businesses in the city are closed due to fear of looting. So far there has been no casualty reported. Weah and his supporters feel that the Liberian soccer legend was cheated in the just ended run off election. Mr. Weah came first in the first run but got fixated around 40% in the run off. With the exception of Maryland County, he won the whole of Southeastern Liberia – Grand Kru, Grand Gedeh, River Gee and Sinoe Counties.
