MONROVIA-NOVEMBER 3, 2025: REPRESENTATIVE Yekeh Kolubah of district number ten Montserrado County, has alleged that Rep. Foday Fahnbulleh, of Bong County district seven has Hernia.
A hernia is a medical condition where an organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue.
Medially, Hernia occurs when part of an internal organ or fatty tissue bulges through a weakened area in the muscle or fascia that normally contains it.
This normally appears as a visible lump or bulge, especially when standing, coughing, or straining.
It started when the two lawmakers exchanged tough words in session with proceedings in the Chamber of the House of Representatives.
The confrontation started when Rep. Kolubah raised an amendment during the adoption of the day’s agenda, challenging the timeliness of President Joseph Nyuma Boakai’s communication to the House informing lawmakers of his official state visit to Paris, France.
Rep. Kolubah argued that the President’s letter was not timely, stating that President Boakai should have written to the Legislature before leaving the country not after his departure.
While presenting his argument, Rep. Kolubah referred to the Liberian leader simply as “Boakai,” a comment that immediately drew the attention of Rep. Fahnbulleh described Rep. Kolubah’s statement as disrespectful to the Presidency.
The disagreement quickly escalated, prompting Rep. Fahnbulleh to allege that Rep Kolubah killed people. “Because you killed plenty people during the war, that’s why you don’t respect anybody.”
That statement angered Rep. Kolubah, who reacted sharply, saying, “See this criminal Foday, who eating the people of Bong County money from China Union! Small boy like you.
Rep. Fahnbulleh
You get (You get Hernia)Honyor, that’s why you always wearing big trousers.”
The exchange caused a brief uproar on the floor before Rep. Emmanuel Dahn and other lawmakers intervened to calm Rep. Kolubah and restored order to the session
The statements by the two lawmakers are yet to be proven by them.
