MONROVIA – In a stunning public outburst, Queen Johnson, a long-time supporter of the ruling Unity Party, has taken to social media to express deep regret over her past support for Montserrado County Senator Abraham Darius Dillon, calling him “a hypocrite” and accusing him of abandoning the very people who helped elevate him to political prominence.
In a strongly worded Facebook post, Johnson recounted her personal sacrifices during Dillon’s early political campaigns, stating she “nearly died in Montserrado, especially District 9,” while fighting to secure his election victory. According to her, she insulted critics, rallied support, and even lobbied for funds to pay poll watchers on Dillon’s behalf during his first run for Senate.
“Sometimes, we regret voting for some guys,” she wrote. “I regret ever putting my life on the line and voting for Dillon.”
The post, which quickly garnered attention across social media platforms, paints a picture of deep disillusionment from one of the senator’s earliest grassroots allies. Johnson accused Dillon of turning his back on those who stood by him when he had little support and said he now seeks everything for himself while “forgetting about the masses.”
She clarified that her criticism is not born out of personal animosity but stems from what she called Dillon’s “hypocrite behavior,” which she believes undermines the values he once claimed to uphold.
Johnson’s post also hinted at future political tensions, particularly over Dillon’s rumored interest in contesting the Grand Bassa County senatorial seat in 2029. She warned him to remember that the Grebo tribe, her ethnic group, is the second-largest in Grand Bassa and would not sit idly by.
“We all will go there and fight the battle,” she declared, hinting at a possible political confrontation in the future.
In an apparent response to anticipated backlash, Johnson concluded her post by challenging Dillon’s defenders to recall the efforts she personally made to help him win. “The battle I fought for Dillon, none of you guys fought 1% of it,” she said. “Dillon himself knows such, but he’s ungrateful. Imagine, this uncle blocked me.”
As of press time, Senator Dillon had not responded publicly to Johnson’s remarks. However, political observers say the Facebook post underscores growing discontent within sections of the Unity Party base and highlights broader dissatisfaction with the senator’s perceived shift away from grassroots accountability.
