NATIONAL COUNTIES CAUCUS
Liberia National Students’ Union (LINSU)
Date: February 23, 2026
OFFICIAL INDICTMENT OF THE 6TH POST-WAR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
The National Counties Caucus of the Liberia National Students’ Union - LINSU, comprising the Presidents and leadership of all Fifteen Counties Students’ Unions and constituting the numerical majority of the National Administrative Council (NAC), hereby issues this formal and uncompromising indictment against the 6th Post-War Executive Committee inducted on January 25, 2025.
More than one year into this administration, the evidence of failure is overwhelming, undeniable, and constitutionally alarming.
LINSU was founded to defend, protect, and advance the interests of Liberian students. That sacred mandate has been betrayed.
COUNT I: LEADERSHIP DERELICTION AND DELIBERATE INACCESSIBILITY
The President of LINSU has demonstrated sustained inaccessibility and institutional isolation.
Repeated calls and official communications from NAC members and county leadership have been ignored. Strategic consultation has been replaced by unilateral silence.
The Vice President for National Affairs has abandoned national coordination responsibilities, leaving essential functions unattended.
The Vice President for International Affairs has failed to execute campaign commitments regarding international exposure, partnerships, and capacity-building initiatives for counties.
Leadership is not ceremonial. It is functional.
What we have witnessed is not governance — it is absence.
COUNT II: CONSTITUTIONAL SUBVERSION
The Executive Committee has willfully refused to convene mandatory NAC meetings as required under Article 6, Section II of the LINSU Constitution.
For over twelve months:
No comprehensive performance report has been submitted to the NAC.
No structured review of executive activities has been conducted.
No collective decision-making process has been respected.
Additionally, committees and a Bureau have been created without NAC authorization, in direct violation of constitutional provisions governing the establishment of bodies exceeding one year in tenure.
The Constitution of LINSU is not advisory. It is binding.
Selective obedience is constitutional sabotage.
COUNT III: SYSTEMATIC NEGLECT OF COUNTIES STRUCTURES
During the 6th Post-War Congress campaign, explicit commitments were made:
1. Provision of mobility (motorbikes or vehicles) to county unions.
2. Scholarship opportunities for student leaders, especially at tertiary institutions.
3. Structured monitoring and evaluation of associate member unions.
4. Strengthening of international exposure opportunities.
5. Institutional decentralization of programs and decision-making.
None of these commitments have materialized.
Counties auxiliaries constitute nearly 60% of LINSU’s operational reach nationwide and form the decisive voting bloc during Congress. Yet these same counties operate:
Without mobility.
Without structured support.
Without material assistance.
Without strategic engagement.
Without policy inclusion.
Meanwhile, national leadership enjoys centralized privileges while the counties remain institutionally abandoned.
This imbalance is unacceptable.
COUNT IV: FINANCIAL OBSCURITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY FAILURE
LINSU receives approximately USD $50,000 annually from the National Budget for program implementation across Liberia.
Yet:
No visible nationwide advocacy program exists.
No structured scholarship scheme is operational.
No documented decentralization initiative has been launched.
No comprehensive financial report has been presented to NAC.
No transparent breakdown of allocations and expenditures has been disclosed.
Students deserve transparency.
Students deserve fiscal clarity.
Students deserve stewardship, not silence.
Public funds are not personal allowances. They are instruments of service.
COUNT V: GOVERNANCE ARROGANCE AND STRUCTURAL DISRESPECT
The consistent exclusion of counties from strategic decisions, the refusal to consult NAC, and the unilateral exercise of authority represent:
Institutional arrogance.
Governance centralization.
Democratic erosion.
Structural disrespect to majority stakeholders.
The counties are not appendages of LINSU.
They are its backbone.
(48-HOUR ULTIMATUM)
In defense of constitutional governance and student representation, the National Counties Caucus hereby demands within forty-eight (48) hours:
1. Immediate convening of a full NAC meeting.
2. A comprehensive financial report covering all funds received from 2024 to January 2026, including detailed allocations and expenditures.
3. Immediate operational mobility support (motorbikes at minimum) and the uncompromise allocation/allotment of USD$1,500 to each county to run the county Chapters/activities.
4. Strict compliance with all constitutional provisions governing executive conduct.
5. Immediate structured reconciliation and engagement framework with counties and stakeholders.
NOTICE OF CONSTITUTIONAL ACTION
Failure to comply within the stipulated timeframe will compel the National Counties Caucus to invoke Article 6, Section II, Subsection 5 of the LINSU Constitution, empowering the NAC to initiate impeachment proceedings against any member of the National Executive Committee found to be acting contrary to the Constitution and Congress-adopted policies.
This is not hostility.
This is constitutional enforcement.
It is not rebellion to demand performance.
It is not division to demand transparency.
It is not sabotage to demand accountability.
It is duty.
LINSU does not belong to an individual.
It does not belong to a clique.
It does not belong to silence.
It belongs to Liberian students.
If corrective measures are not taken immediately, history will record that the Counties — the majority and the backbone of this Union — rose not in defiance, but in defense of its integrity.
Aluta continua.
