Monrovia, Liberia – In what many describe as a defining moment for the Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC), former House Speaker Cllr. J. Fonati Koffa has been entrusted with chairing the 23-member committee mandated to deliver a new party headquarters within one year.
The move comes on the heels of the party’s eviction and demolition of its historic headquarters in Monrovia—a development that has both shaken its foundation and galvanized its resilience.
For many partisans, the choice of Koffa is no surprise. Over the years, he has stood firmly with the CDC, even when political storms threatened to erode the party’s unity. At the height of his tenure as Speaker of the 55th Legislature, Koffa weathered challenges and what some insiders termed “acts of betrayal” from within. Yet, through humility and principle, he held the line for both his office and his party.
Observers say his integrity cannot be overstated. “Fonati Koffa has consistently proven that leadership is not about convenience but about conviction,” a senior CDC partisan remarked. “That is why today, in our toughest times, we can count on him to steer this rebuilding process.”
The headquarters project, already drawing pledges of financial and moral support, is being hailed as a symbol of CDC’s rebirth. Alongside Senator Nathaniel McGill as Co-Chair and Eugene Lenn Nagbe as General Coordinator, Koffa is expected to drive the committee with the same discipline and determination that have defined his public service.
Former President and political leader George Weah, who appointed the committee, has urged supporters to rally around the project as a testament to the CDC’s resilience. “They may demolish a building,” Weah noted recently, “but they cannot demolish the CDC.”
With the project’s timeline set at one year, all eyes are now on Cllr. Koffa. His history of standing tall in adversity gives partisans hope that the new headquarters will not just rise from the rubble, but will stand as a monument to perseverance, loyalty, and integrity.
