Health minister’s asset declaration confirmed, despite LACC listing errors

Monrovia – The Ministry of Health has clarified that Minister Dr. Louise Mapleh Kpoto fully complied with the national asset declaration mandate, countering her erroneous inclusion on the Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission (LACC) list of non-compliant officials.

According to the Ministry, Dr. Kpoto submitted her Declaration of Income, Assets, and Liability to the LACC on August 5, 2024. The submission was duly documented and acknowledged by the Assets Declaration & Verification Unit, contradicting reports that she had failed to meet the legal requirement.

The Ministry expressed deep concern over what it termed as an “inaccuracy” in the LACC’s listing, urging the Commission to take immediate corrective measures. It warned that such misrepresentations could unfairly damage the reputation of public officials and erode public trust in governance and anti-corruption efforts.

“The integrity of national institutions must be upheld through accurate and transparent reporting. Errors of this nature not only harm individual reputations but also cast doubt on the credibility of accountability measures,” the Ministry said in a statement.

In a broader appeal, the Ministry called on the media to verify information before publication, warning that the spread of inaccurate reports could mislead the public and create unnecessary confusion.

The LACC’s list has raised concerns over the accuracy of the anti-corruption body’s vetting processes, with some critics questioning whether similar errors may have affected other public officials. As calls for clarity grow, observers are keenly watching how the LACC will respond to mounting pressure for transparency.

Despite the misstep, the Ministry of Health reaffirmed its commitment to accountability and compliance with governance protocols.
