MONROVIA – The House of Representatives has formally expelled Montserrado County District #10 Representative Yekeh Kolubah after securing the constitutionally required 49 votes.
The decision follows the adoption of a report from the House Committee on Rules, Order and Administration (ROA), which recommended Kolubah’s removal. Plenary acted on the recommendation, meeting the threshold needed to enforce the expulsion.
Notably, the Chairman of the Rule of Law Caucus, Jacob C Debee, signed onto the resolution, adding weight to the final tally that led to Kolubah’s removal.
However, the process exposed visible divisions within the House, as several prominent lawmakers did not append their signatures. Those who withheld support include Frank Saah Foko, Dixon Seboe, Eugene Kollie, Musa Hassan Bility, Muka Kamara, Edward P. Flomo, and Marvin Cole.
Kolubah’s expulsion marks a rare and decisive action by the legislature, underscoring its authority to discipline members while also revealing underlying disagreements among lawmakers.
Plenary remains in session as the House moves to address the immediate legal and political implications of the decision.
