An Executive Mansion release has alarmed over the growing number of reports of individuals falsely claiming to represent the Executive Mansion or senior officials of the government.
The Mansion said these impersonators are contacting members of the public, making false promises of employment, and soliciting money or favors in exchange.
However, it made it clear that no official of the Office of the President, the Ministry of State for Presidential Affairs, or any member of the President’s team will ever call, text, or approach anyone to solicit money, gifts, or gratuities in exchange for employment or favors.
Additionally, employment and appointments are handled strictly through official government processes and are never based on personal payments or private arrangements.
“Anyone found impersonating an official of the Executive Mansion or engaging in such fraudulent acts will be prosecuted and dealt with in accordance with law,” the Executive Mansion press release warned.
The release advised the public to remain vigilant and avoid falling victim to these scams and to also report such matter to the Liberian National Police (LNP) or the Executive Protection Service (EPS).
“The Executive Mansion is committed to protecting the integrity of the Office of the President and safeguarding the public from fraud,” the release observed.
