President George Weah has met in audience a delegation of the Liberia National Olympic Committee (LNOC) headed by Youth and Sports Minister Zeogar Wilson, the Executive Mansion says in a statement issued Wednesday, 11 July.

The Mansion says the meeting took place at President Weah’s Foreign Affairs Office in Monrovia. The delegation is due to travel to Algeria for this year’s “All African Game” hosted in Algiers, the Algerian capital this month.

Speaking to the delegation, President Weah encouraged the team to ignite all efforts in raising the flag of Liberia and to represent the nation as ambassadors who are serving on a duty for a national cause.

The Liberian Leader said the team should view their presence and participation in the pending tournament as a means of lifting the flag of Liberia through sports and should ensure that Liberia achieves the purpose for their participation on the African Continent.–Press release
