MONROVIA, LIBERIA – Liberian journalist Alex Yormah is making an urgent plea for help as he battles a stroke and a severe infection, conditions that now threaten his life. Yormah, a dedicated reporter with The Inquirer Newspaper, has spent years amplifying the voices of ordinary Liberians, exposing the truth, and holding power to account. Today, he finds himself in dire need of the same public support he has worked tirelessly to secure for others.
His health has rapidly deteriorated, and immediate medical intervention is required to stabilize his condition. Despite his invaluable contributions to Liberia’s media landscape, Yormah now faces a critical moment where he must rely on the goodwill of fellow journalists, public officials, and humanitarian organizations to survive.
The call for assistance extends to media colleagues, Speaker of the HOR J. Fonati Koffa, President Joseph Boakai, civil society organizations, and Liberia’s international partners. As a man who has dedicated his career to informing the public, Yormah now hopes that the same community he served will rally around him in this time of need.
Those willing to offer support can reach him directly at 0776581505 or contact his sister, Diana Clement, via WhatsApp at +231 88 633 3482. Additionally, journalist Sylvester Choloplay can be reached on WhatsApp at 0778967000 for coordination.
Alex Yormah’s fight for survival is now a call to action for Liberia’s media fraternity and beyond.
