Former First Lady Nancy Doe’s Family to Reject Weah’s Gift and Honor Her in Their Own Way

Monrovia: Liberia: The Doe family is expected to respectfully return a sympathy gift presented by former President George Weah during his visit on June 8, 2025, following the passing of former First Lady Nancy B. Doe.

The gesture, which included $5,000 in cash, 50 bags of rice, and a promise of two cows, was met with appreciation. However, family sources told the Spoon Network that the Doe family, while grateful for the sentiment, has chosen to honor the memory of the late First Lady in their own way emphasizing dignity, self-reliance, and the preservation of her legacy.

This decision reflects the family’s commitment to upholding values they believe the former First Lady stood for, and has been widely seen as a moment of quiet strength and principled leadership in a time of mourning.
