Monrovia Liberia: The case involving D. Dolewon, an employee of the National Security Agency (NSA), has raised serious concerns about national security and the integrity of the agency. Dolewon, aged 40, has been accused of leaking sensitive intelligence to embattled Speaker J. Fonati Koffa, whom he claims is his uncle. The investigation, which began in December 2024, reveals that Dolewon shared confidential NSA information, including details about high-ranking officers, through his WhatsApp account.
Among the information leaked were the names, roles, and positions of key personnel, as well as sensitive operational details. Dolewon allegedly urged Speaker Koffa to distrust certain NSA officials, including Deputy Director Steven Dolo, whom he accused of being involved in “dirty work.” The leaks have put the safety of NSA officers and the agency’s operations at significant risk, raising alarms over potential compromises in national security.
Dolewon faces multiple charges, including the unlawful disclosure of classified information, mishandling of sensitive materials, criminal coercion, and recklessly endangering others. His actions are said to have violated strict NSA protocols that prohibit such disclosures. Despite his admission to the charges and an appeal for mercy, the investigation found no evidence to support Dolewon’s claims of ill-treatment by Deputy Director Dolo.
The case highlights the critical issue of safeguarding classified information and the consequences of breaches within intelligence agencies, especially when such leaks can have far-reaching impacts on national security.
