Mr. Urey, who is a strong ally of former President Charles Taylor, indicated that the Free Masons must produce the next president that will build a new Liberian. sic
"We must build a new Liberia because there is a need to improve the Masonic craft and our country," he said.
...
He also noted that in the 2017 elections, members of the society will get involved to ensure that the right people are elected.

Mr. Urey don't remind Liberians of the TWP (True Whig Party) era when the government was primarily operated from "Up the Hill"! Do you want for citizens, especially children, to again see anyone in a "black car" as a "society man" and start fleeing? I'm sure you also heard that Careysburg was considered as a place not suitable to be stranded after 10:00pm those days because you would definitely disappear!
I think it was AVI who wrote that conspiracy theories are popular because conspiracies are even more popular--though most conspiracies fail.
BTW, a "society man" would have been a "Leopard Society" man, or something similar, who used body parts in ceremonies to ensure wealth or power. How many of these there ever actually were I can't guess, but rumors popped up all the time. Always from somebody who knew somebody who knew somebody who saw the remains... Sometimes they made the newspapers. For what that's worth.
I'm fascinated by Urey's priorities, btw: "improve the craft" comes first.
