Moses Blah

Moses Blah

Moses Blah (born April 18, 1947) was named President of Liberia on August 11, 2003, following the resignation of Charles Taylor. He served as president until October 14, 2003, when a UN-backed transitional government, headed by Gyude Bryant, was sworn in.

Blah had previously served as Taylor's vice president since 2000. He had been an ally of Taylor's during Liberia's civil war in the 1990s. He was removed from his post and held under house arrest for ten days in July of 2003 on charges of conspiring with the United States to overthrow Taylor during the latter's absence for peace talks in Ghana, but he was subsequently absolved and reinstated as vice-president.
