A skilled consensus builder, he has built the party into an institution that played a leadership role in bringing the fractious Liberian opposition together. In 1997, he brought six parties together into an alliance to contest the special elections following the end of the civil war. More recently, he brought five of the opposition parties to play a lead role in the Accra peace talks.
