The Acting President Pro Tempore of the Senate has officially joined the opposition Liberty Party of Cllr. Charles Brumskine. 

Senator Lahai Lassana joined the Liberty Party after he tendered in his resignation as a member of the National Democratic Party of Liberia. 

Senator Lassana said the decision was taken out of the desire to foster his political life and that he has no regret of leaving the former ruling party. 

Liberty Party Political leader Cllr. Charles Brumskine said the move by Senator Lassana to join the party was unusual given his status as a Senator. 

Senator Lassana and the NDPL along with embattled Senate Pro Temp Isaac Nyenabo have been rocked by a dispute. 

The NDPL supported suspended Pro Temp Nyenabo to take to court the Senate led by Acting President Pro-Tempore Lassana. 

Meanwhile, the Chairman of the Liberty Party Israel Akinsanya says the Party recognizes Senator Lassana as Acting Pro Temp of the Senate. 

Mr. Akinsanya said the Liberty Party will defend Acting Pro Temp Lassana to the fullest as long he lives in the confine of the rule of law.

I do consider the act of Senator Lansana as a move based on personal interest instead of the national interests. 
I expect all our politicians to only break away from a political party base on the of political views of the said party, not base on their private interests.
