Established in 2024, the Liberia Ombuds National Association (LONA) is a legal and civic organization dedicated to promoting justice, equity, and institutional accountability across Liberia. As an independent, non-governmental body, LONA advances its mission through alternative dispute resolution (ADR), legal advocacy, and public education initiatives focused on fairness, human rights, and social responsibility.
The association was co-founded by Mr. Nathaniel Kane Toeh, Ms. Precious T. George, Mr. Eugene M. Smith, Mr. Mohammed V. Kromah, and Mr. Emmanuel W. Cooper, a team of professionals united by a shared vision of systemic transparency and easy access to justice. Since its formation, LONA has emerged as a trusted voice in Liberia's pursuit of legal reform and civic integrity.
Headquartered in Monrovia’s District 8, LONA conducts its work through principled, transparent procedures. Our commitment to impartial service delivery, stakeholder engagement, and ethical governance underscores our role as a catalyst for long-term, sustainable justice in Liberia.
Our mission is, “To uphold the rights of all Liberians by promoting fair treatment, institutional accountability, and equitable access to justice.”
Our vision is a Liberia where fairness, transparency, and justice serve as the foundation of all public and private institutions.
