Official Statement on Alleged Off-Budget Spending by Government

The Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission (LACC) has been made aware of allegations regarding off-budget spending by the government of the Republic of Liberia, amounting to a total of $15 million. In light of these claims, we wish to address the matter in a manner consistent with our mandate to promote transparency, accountability, and good governance.

  1. We take these allegations seriously, as they touch on matters that are core to our institutional objectives. Off-budget expenditures, if confirmed, can undermine public trust in governance, weaken fiscal discipline, and pose risks to the country's financial integrity.
  2. We wish to assure the public that the LACC has commenced a preliminary review of the allegations. This will be followed by a comprehensive investigation to determine the accuracy of the claims, establish accountability, and ensure that proper legal procedures are followed.
  3. We are committed to conducting this investigation with utmost transparency and independence. Throughout the process, we will engage with relevant stakeholders, including the Ministry of Finance, and other oversight institutions, to ensure a thorough and fair inquiry.
  4. As an institution charged with safeguarding public resources, we assure the public that we will leave no stone unturned in this investigation. If evidence of wrongdoing is found, we will take the necessary legal actions, including recommending sanctions, prosecutions, and other corrective measures.
  5. We urge the public, media, and all stakeholders to allow the investigation to proceed without undue speculation or assumptions. Let us collectively uphold the principles of due process, ensuring that all findings are based on verifiable facts and evidence.
  6. The LACC remains steadfast in its mission to combat corruption in all forms. Any allegations of financial mismanagement will be met with the full force of the law, as part of our broader efforts to promote accountability and safeguard public funds.

Further updates will be provided as the investigation progresses.
