The presidential inauguration on Monday was the country’s first transition between democratically-elected leaders since 1944.
Weah, who defeated the erstwhile governing party’s candidate and former Vice President Joseph Boakai during the presidential run-off on December 26, vowed to prosecute corrupt officials.
He assured the international community that Liberia will be open for business at all times, as the new government would create a conducive environment for huge investments.
He also pledged to invest in agriculture and infrastructure to improve the livelihood of Liberians.
At least eight African heads of state and some international soccer stars witnessed the ceremony.
