Demonstrators accuse the government of corruption and abuse of power, allegations the government says are baseless.

A former warlord, a footballer and a soft drinks millionaire are competing to becoming Liberia's next president. The West African nation is going to the polls in October 2017 following a decade of service by Ellen Johnson Sirleaf. It's the first democratic transition since the country's 14 year civil war, which ended in 2003.

Liberia president and former World Player of the Year George Weah made a surprise return to international football when playing in a 2-1 loss to Nigeria a few weeks short of his 52nd birthday.
The friendly match had been arranged to retire the No 14 shirt, which Weah wore during his playing peak, but fans were left in shock when the striker led the national team onto the pitch wearing it instead.
Weah enjoyed a career in Europe spanning nearly a decade and a half and earned 60 caps representing Liberia. His popularity from his playing career saw him secure a landslide run-off win last December in the country's presidential elections.
The 51-year-old's football comeback in Monrovia on Tuesday also happened to fall on the same day that his son Timothy Weah represented the USA against Mexico
The Fiver: George Weah returns, but not everybody is left feeling fuzzy inside

The World Bank has suspended its access to "unwithdrawn loans" in Liberia after the country defaulted loan repayments by 60 days under the administration of outgoing president George Weah.

Liberian President George Weah is facing a backlash over his handling of corruption accusations by the United States against three Liberian top officials.
Weah suspended the accused officials after the US treasury announced sanctions on them for public corruption.
While Weah’s government blames the Ukraine crisis and COVID-19, members of civil society say corruption and mismanagement of public funds are the real culprits.

Al Jazeera’s Nicolas Haque reports from the Liberian capital, Monrovia.

Liberia's next president is calling for national unity. Joseph Boakai was declared the winner of the run-off poll by the narrowest of margins. The country's election commission said the 78-year-old Boakai took 50.64 percent of the vote, only 20,000 votes more than his rival, incumbent George Weah. The outgoing president conceded defeat last Friday, a move that won him praise for promoting a non-violent transition in a region marred by coups.
