Monrovia, Liberia – Lenn Eugene Nagbe, the Chief of Staff of Liberia’s immediate ex-President George Weah and Liberia’s former Information Minister and Maritime Boss, has formally requested the Liberia National Police (LNP) to launch a preliminary investigation into the death of Mr. Cletus Noah, following what he describes as “outrageous accusations” and threats from the deceased’s brother, Cain Tozo. In a letter addressed to Inspector General Gregory Coleman, Nagbe expressed deep concern over Tozo’s claims linking him to Noah’s death and demanded an official probe to clarify the circumstances surrounding the incident.
In his letter dated May 8, 2025, Nagbe detailed his distress over the allegations made by Tozo, who contacted him via WhatsApp on May 7, accusing him of involvement in Noah’s death. According to Nagbe, Tozo went as far as threatening him, stating, *“Wait for the burial… I am coming for you.”*
“These allegations are both serious and damaging, not only to my reputation but also present a threat to my personal safety and security,” Nagbe wrote in his formal complaint. He attached screenshots and a transcript of the WhatsApp conversation as evidence, urging the LNP to verify the claims.
The deceased, Cletus Noah, reportedly passed away on May 4, 2025, under circumstances that remain unclear. Nagbe emphasized that a police investigation is necessary to determine whether foul play was involved and to dispel any false narratives surrounding the incident.
“To ensure that the truth is established and to dispel any misinformation or suspicion, I formally request that the Liberia National Police conduct a preliminary investigation into the death of Mr. Cletus Noah,” Nagbe stated. He further encouraged the LNP to contact Cain Tozo directly to assess the basis of his accusations.
Nagbe’s letter also mentioned former Finance Minister Samuel D. Tweah, whom Tozo allegedly implicated alongside Nagbe and others he referred to as “henchmen.” However, Nagbe dismissed these claims as baseless and inflammatory.
The complainant stressed that an official inquiry would not only protect his reputation but also provide clarity for Noah’s grieving family. “I believe that a formal investigation by the LNP will help establish the facts and bring much-needed closure,” he wrote.
As of now, the Liberia National Police has yet to issue a public response to Nagbe’s request. Observers note that the case highlights growing concerns over public accusations and vigilante rhetoric in the wake of unexplained deaths.
Nagbe concluded his letter by assuring full cooperation with authorities, stating, “I am available should the LNP require any further clarification.”
