The former Liberia Football Association Vice president for Operation, Cassell Anthony Kuoh, has termed as misleading and false, the allegation levied against him of being behind recent news linking Rochelle Favor Woodson to an ongoing money laundering investigation in the United States of America.
Recently, news broke out in the country that the ex-Liberia Football Association Executive Committee Member was linked to a scandalous deal of money laundering and her alleged involvement in a $6.5 million deal with a Nigerian national Identified as Samson Olabodo, whom, they alleged, is an accomplice to Madam Woodson.
In the Talk Football WhatsApp chatroom, Madam Woodson boldly pointed fingers at Anthony Cassell Kuoh, the Chief Executive Officer of FC Kallon-Liberia, of being behind the allegation.
Woodson alleged that Kuoh’s motive is to drag her into his web of criminal activities, a dangerous game he has been playing for years, putting not just her but also her children in harm’s way.
In that regard, the Liberian businessman, who recently declared his intention to contest the Liberia Football Association (LFA) 2026 Elective Congress for the presidency, has responded to the allegation.
“I am writing to address a serious matter that has been brought to my attention. It has come to my knowledge that a false and misleading information has been circulating about me being the mastermind behind the story of Rochell’s alleged involvement in a Business Email Compromised (BEC) scheme,” he said in a press release issued on Wednesday.
He furthered, “I want to assure you that this information is completely inaccurate, misleading, and disappointing.”
According to Kuoh, he has been a constant source of support to Rochelle and her entire family and he has been contributing to every success of her family for the last 15 years.
“Secondly, I would never betray someone I consider a sister, even if I had evidence of wrongdoing. My loyalty and commitment to my family are unwavering, and I would never engage in actions that would harm or damage someone I care about,” he said.
“Lastly, I am in favor of Rochelle’s progress and success. I want to see her thrive and reach her full potential. It’s unfortunate that Rochelle has chosen to spread false information about me because I disagree with her as far as the LFA presidency is concerned,” he added.
The LFA presidential hopeful also used the occasion to call on Woodson to refrain from spreading false information about him, and instead, focus on building positive relationships with those around her.
He concluded by saying, “I hope this clears up any misconceptions or doubts that may have been raised by her against me. I appreciate your understanding and support in this matter.”
