Monrovia – The Union of Liberia Associations in the Americas (ULAA) is seeking the passage of the dual citizens’ bill to allow Liberians who have taken citizenship in other countries to come home and contribute to the development of Liberia.

President George Weah during his first Annual Massage to the Legislature called on the body to see reason to amend the citizenship clause in the 1847 Constitution which denies non-negro and other Liberians who have taken citizenship in other countries the right of Liberian citizenship.

Speaking to journalists at the Capitol Building Tuesday, May 1, ULAA Chairman George Toto said the association is not seeking for the citizenship of non-negro, rather pushing for nature born Liberians to regain their citizenship status.
