The President of the Republic, His Excellency Joseph Nyuma Boakai, Sr., has congratulated U.S. President-elect Donald J. Trump following his victory in that country’s recent presidential election. Before his historic win, Trump previously served as President of the United States of America.
According to a Foreign Ministry release, President Boakai said the American President-elect is assuming the leadership of the United States at very challenging time, when the world is faced with a global crisis. He called on Americans to forge ahead in “peace and unity”, a reference to the polarized political environment that occasioned the period of electioneering.
“As Liberia’s traditional ally, we stand ready to further enhance and rekindle our long, historic and unique bilateral relations. We express the hope that the people of your great country under your astute leadership will continue to enjoy the blessing of peace, unity and prosperity,” President Boakai said.
The Liberian Leader is the latest of many around the world who have already congratulated the U.S. President-elect.
