Despite efforts to dismantle the CDC, Morlu asserted that the more they tried, the more the coalition would rise in power, dominance, and strength.

Addressing the Opposition

Directing his words to political opponents, particularly those who might anticipate CDC’s surrender, Morlu made it clear that the party would never bow to what he referred to as the “golden calf of apostasy.” He asserted that any negotiation on issues pertinent to the people’s interests would be conducted from a position of strength. Morlu rejected any notion of crawling on their bellies or falling to their knees, emphasizing the CDC’s commitment to maintaining its principles.

Call for Peaceful Transition

While maintaining a strong stance, Morlu also called for a peaceful transfer of power through the transition team. Acknowledging Liberia’s status as pillars of peace and stability, he urged the people to move past the challenges of the democratic process and support a smooth transition.

Conclusion
