Monrovia, Liberia – A wave of sorrow has swept across Kakata after a man identified as Peter Kamara was allegedly struck and killed by a vehicle believed to be part of President Joseph N. Boakai’s convoy late Saturday, November 22, 2025 at Tode Junction in Margibi County.
Grief-stricken relatives gathered at the C.H. Rennie Hospital, where they faced the devastating reality that their loved one had reportedly succumbed to his injuries shortly after the collision. According to eyewitnesses, the main convoy had already passed when the last police escort vehicle allegedly hit Kamara’s motorbike.
Also, an eyewitness riding on another motorbike directly behind the deceased, recounted that no siren was sounded and that the escort vehicle “picked him (deceased) up on the side” before crashing into the motorcycle. Both the damaged motorbike and the police vehicle were said to have remained at the scene as bystanders rushed Kamara to the hospital.
At the hospital, Kamara’s anguished mother and his son, clad in a C.M.C. T-shirt, cried uncontrollably as stunned residents gathered in disbelief. However, many called on authorities to swiftly investigate the incident and extend support to the grieving family.
Though eyewitnesses indicate that Kamara did not survive, official confirmation of his death has yet to be released. The tragedy has intensified public concern over road safety and the high-speed movement of presidential convoys through heavily populated communities.
