LACC Executive Reaffirms Push for National Anti-Corruption Court at Quarterly Workshop Organized by The Ministry of Justice
The Executive Chairperson of the Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission (LACC), Cllr. Alexandra Kormah Zoe, has renewed her strong call for the establishment of a National Anti-Corruption Court, describing it as a decisive step toward deepening accountability and restoring public trust in the justice system at the opening of the Quarterly Workshop organized by the Ministry of Justice in partnership with the LACC, which brought together county attorneys, prosecution monitors, and representatives from the Ministries of Labor and Justice.
The workshop focuses on strengthening coordination in prosecution, reporting, and human trafficking interventions.
Cllr. Zoe stressed that to win the fight against corruption, Liberia must institutionalize it by creating a specialized court solely dedicated to corruption cases. “We need a court that can handle corruption cases swiftly and fairly one that ensures timely justice and sends a clear message that Liberia is serious about accountability.
Delivering remarks at the event, the Solicitor General, Augustine C. Fayiah highlighted the enormous responsibility that comes with the pursuit of justice, reminding participants that their duty is not merely to secure convictions but to uphold fairness, independence, and integrity.
He pledged continued advocacy for their training and protection, while calling on them to rise above mediocrity and deliver justice both in law and in spirit.
In closing remarks, Cllr. Zoe mentioned that collaboration and reform of a dedicated Anti-Corruption Court would not only expedite the handling of cases but also build consistency in rulings and restore citizens’ confidence in the justice system.
