Monrovia — The departure of Boima Kamara, Liberia's Minister of Finance and Development, appears imminent. As FrontPage Africa delves into the reasons behind Minister Kamara's exit, more intricacies and shenanigans are being uncovered. While the minister's health has been cited as the main reason for his departure, sources indicate that his opposition to the controversial yellow machine deal is a one of the main factors in his swift resignation.

On Saturday, Minister Bility made a solitary delivery of the first batch of earth-moving equipment, including yellow machines and trucks, from the port to the military barracks. Riding in an open-top SUV and adorned in all yellow, the minister stated that the machines are the first consignment of the 285 announced during President Boakai's maiden cabinet retreat.

Sources say the minister has been offered a non-executive governor position at the Central Bank of Liberia, but it is unclear whether he will accept, as he previously held a top post at the bank.The president is reportedly torn between his financial advisor, Molley Kamara, and former Minister Augustine Ngafuan as potential replacements. A well-placed source informed FPA that Ngafuan, currently serving as the African Development Bank Country Manager for Uganda, has expressed interest in the job.
