The widow of the fallen veteran Liberian Journalist Atty. Philip Wesseh, Mrs. Teplah Wesseh has called for a unifying spirit at the Inquirer Newspaper following the death of the institutions’ Managing Editor.
Mrs. Wesseh said the dream and vision of her late husband was always to see the institution outstanding among others through ensuring that his employees remained and committed to the paper’s unique maxim.
She acknowledged the management and staff of the Newspaper for the love shown to late Atty. Wesseh during his ailing days and hopes the death of her husband will strengthen the bond among all those connected with the paper.
According to her, the legacy of the late media guru should also become a priority of the institution so that the young generation or the new breed of journalists can become exemplary of great men and women that contributed to the journalism profession in Liberia.
“The Inquirer Newspaper and I have been a family that had come a very long way. Mr. Wesseh is gone from us but his legacy still lives on and will reign eternally. We should all continue working assiduously and relentlessly as usual to keep this institution more prestigious. Let’s unite and work together as a family,” she implored.
She then promised to continue the commitment upheld thus far to impact the Inquirer Newspaper in whatever way so as to make the soul of the former managing editor rest in peace.
In remarks, former news editor at the Inquirer Newspaper, Jackson Seaton eulogized Philip Wesseh for a remarkable life he lived and the tremendous work done throughout his media profession.
According to him, the Gina did not only come down to serve the media profession but also did all he could in his own way to make the young people that followed him develop a better space for the future.
Reechoing thanks and appreciation to the team moving the Inquirer Newspaper, Seaton said, “We all love Philip for the kind of man he was and hope that his legacy stays on.”
