Rudolph Merab
Rudolph Merab is the Managing Director of the Forestry Development Authority (FDA) in Liberia, previously linked to logging operations during the Second Liberian Civil War. His leadership has faced criticism for overlooking wartime accountability regulations that disqualify certain loggers from operating in the forestry sector. Merab's past associations with controversial logging practices during a turbulent period in Liberia’s history have raised questions about the integrity of the FDA under his direction.
