VIP LOUNGE AT ROBERTS INT’L AIRPORT EXCLUSIVE FOR SITTING PRESIDENT, SAYS PRESS SECRETARY KULA FOFANA

Date:

MONROVIA – In a recent statement on OK FM, Press Secretary Kula Fofana declared that the VIP Lounge at the Roberts International Airport is reserved exclusively for the sitting President, emphasizing that no other individual will be permitted to use this privileged facility.

Fofana’s assertion has sparked a wave of debate and discussion among the public, with many expressing contrasting views on the matter. While some individuals support the exclusivity of the VIP Lounge for the President, citing security and protocol reasons, others have raised concerns about the fairness and equality of such a policy.

The VIP Lounge at the Roberts International Airport is designed to provide a high level of comfort and privacy for dignitaries, government officials, and other VIP guests traveling through the airport. Access to this exclusive area is typically restricted to individuals holding special invitations or with specific privileges.

As the controversy unfolds, citizens and political commentators are closely monitoring the situation, awaiting further clarification from government officials regarding the utilization of the VIP Lounge at the airport. True to the Press Secretary’s statement former Liberian President who built the airport was denied use of the VIP Lounge, at the displeasure of CDC and its supporters. Weah returned to Liberia today after a month-long trip to Europe.
