Reports from Liberia indicate that the police have shut a popular radio station which criticized Liberia’s president, George Weah.

It was reported that the police officers broke a steel gate and stormed the offices of Roots FM in Liberia’s capital, Monrovia some few minutes after its breakfast program, The Costa Show.

Panelists on the said program were reported to have discussed alleged wasteful spending by Mr Weah while “his people suffer”.

Sources stated that riot police had been dispatched after his office had received a letter from the Liberia Telecommunications Authority (LTA) complaining that the station and two others were operating without a license.
