Liberian president: Sirleaf speaks out against critics
MONROVIA—Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has spoken out against critics who said she didn’t deserve to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
“I’ve been in this political struggle for three decades, and if the Nobel Peace Prize did their research, they concluded that I’ve been consistent in fighting for the rights of the individual, in fighting for democracy in this country,” she said in an interview at her Monrovia compound on Friday.
