President George Weah left Liberia on November 1 and was meant to return this month, but has since extended his return to December 18.

In his travels, President Weah\\u2019s visited a number of countries; including Morocco, Egypt, France and in early December he\\u2019s planned a trip to the US.

Along the way the former footballer and Ballon d\\u2019Or winner stopped in Qatar for the 2022 World Cup, where he\\u2019s been since the start of the tournament and had the chance to see his son, Timothy Weah, play for the United States.

These trips have got many Liberians talking and saying the president shouldn\\u2019t be flying and leaving the country at a difficult time.

Alan Kasujja spoke to Liberian journalist Jonathan Paye-Layleh, politician Karishma Pelham-Raad, as well as the President\\u2019s press secretary, Isaac Solo Kelgbeh.
