“I Lost Relevance for Edwin Snowe”: Kolleh Unleashes Scathing Attack Amid Kolubah Legal Battle

Monrovia, Liberia: Bong County District #2 Representative James M. Kolleh has sharply criticized Bomi County Senator Edwin Snowe, accusing him of contributing to Liberia’s backwardness and questioning his competence despite years of regional experience.

Speaking Wednesday following developments surrounding the Supreme Court hearing linked to Yekeh Kolubah, Kolleh expressed disbelief that someone with over two decades of experience at ECOWAS could, in his view, demonstrate what he described as a lack of sound judgment and understanding.

“A man who spent more than twenty years at ECOWAS should have a high level of understanding and a strong IQ, but that is not what we are seeing,” Kolleh said, intensifying his criticism of the Bomi County senator.

He went further, directly dismissing Snowe’s intellectual capacity. “Despite that long experience, he lacks the basic understanding required to function effectively as a national leader,” Kolleh added.

The Bong County lawmaker’s remarks were triggered by Snowe’s recent warning that lawmakers involved in the removal of Kolubah could face what he termed a “political calamity” in the 2029 elections.

Kolleh rejected that claim outright, stating that he no longer considers Snowe a relevant figure in Liberia’s legislative space. “I lost relevance for Edwin Snowe as a lawmaker,” he declared.

In one of his most controversial statements, Kolleh also questioned Snowe’s judgment by referencing a past incident. “To see a person who dresses their president in military regalia and places arms in his hands while going to resolve conflict with another country do you think that person is normal?” he asked.

The escalating exchange highlights growing divisions within Liberia’s political class, as the Kolubah case continues to generate intense debate over legislative authority and political accountability.

With the matter still before the Supreme Court, analysts warn that such heated rhetoric between prominent figures like Kolleh and Snowe could deepen political polarization as the country inches toward the next electoral cycle.
