Both the Daily Graphic and the Ghanaian Times report on the visit to the Osu Castle by the Vice-President of Liberia, Mr. Enock Dogolea, who delivered a message from the Liberian Head of State, Mr. Charles Toylar and President Rawlings' challenge to Liberia to provide evidence of her innocence on allegations that she is supporting rebels in the carnage in Sierra Leone.
"Ghana dare Liberia. To prove innocence" is the lead story of the Daily Graphic. The paper says President J. J. Rawlings has warn countries in the sub-region and beyond who are supporting rebels in Sierra Leone that they risk facing the full might of the sub-region.
The President is reported as saying that it is unfortunate that a country like Liberia that has benefited from the peace keeping efforts of ECOWAS should support rebels in Sierra Leone to humiliate ECOMOG soldiers.
The Ghanaian Times headline on the same story reads: "Traitors among ECOWAS...President lashes at those arming S'Leone rebels" , quoted the President as saying "We see this as a stab in the back. We are not going to let this matter lie, we will take the appropriate action,"
