Liberia: Sirleaf Waives Right to Appoint

Sirleaf charges CSA to recruit
political appointees
President Ellen Johnson has finally waived her right to appoint, as President. That is now the responsibility of the Liberian Civil Service Agency (CSA).

As mandated by the President, CSA will, henceforth,  do the vetting of political appointees before they are presented to her for appointment, the Executive Mansion announced Thursday,  December 19, 2013,  in Monrovia. 

This is a demonstration of her commitment to the process of depoliticizing the civil service, it added. She, however, observed that merit-based appointments will continue to be a matter that will not be compromised.
