President George Weah has dismissed National Public Health Institute of Liberia Director General Mosoka Fallah with immediate effect.

The Executive Mansion said the dismissal was based on findings and recommendations of the Special Investigative Committee set up to probe reported breaches in the health and administrative protocols that guide the issuance of COVID-19 test results by NPHIL.

An Executive Mansion release, as promised not to leave any stone un-turned in ensuring that the health and welfare of Liberians remain paramount, President said he is committed to implementing the recommendations contained in the report.

The Liberian Leader ordered the publication of the committee’s full Report.

President Weah thanked the Committee Chair, Dr. Linda Birch and the members for their professionalism, time, and manner they carried out the investigation.

The committee was charged with the responsibility of finding out whether there were systemic breaches in the reporting producer of COVID-19 results and recommend actions to be taken in order to remedy the situation.

Meanwhile, the release said NPHIL Deputy Director General for Administration, Patrick N. Kpanyen will continue to act as Director General pending further action.

President Weah recently suspended Director Mosoka Fallah and a committee was setup to investigate him over some administrative malpractices.
