The Collaborating Movement for Change (CMC) has expressed deep gratitude to the people of Bomi County for their warm and patriotic reception of the Movement’s Political Leader, Musa Hassan Bility, and his delegation during a recent three-day visit held at the invitation of former Senator Sando D. Johnson.
In a statement, the CMC leadership commended the chiefs, elders, youth, and women of Bomi for their exceptional hospitality, describing it as a reflection of Liberia’s true spirit of unity, peace, and democratic inclusiveness.
According to the Movement, the visit yielded significant progress, including a surge in new memberships and the official endorsement of Hon. Sando D. Johnson, who publicly announced his decision to join the CMC. The group hailed Johnson’s move as a powerful sign of the CMC’s growing national credibility and appeal across county lines.
However, the CMC also raised alarm over emerging reports that some traditional leaders who participated in the visit are allegedly facing threats and intimidation from certain political figures within local administrative structures.
While dismissing such actions as undemocratic, the CMC made it clear that chiefs and elders serve as moral guardians of national unity and must not be coerced into partisan politics.
“We will not engage in confrontation over baseless rumors,” the statement read. “But let it be known—our traditional leaders are mothers and fathers to all citizens, not political pawns. Their duty is to foster peace, understanding, and cohesion in their communities.”
Reaffirming its commitment to democratic engagement and peaceful competition, the CMC called on national and local authorities to promote tolerance, shield traditional leaders from undue influence, and ensure that Liberia’s democratic space remains open and safe for all participants.
