At one point, Mr. Tukpah not aware that the President was on a conference call, sarcastically criticized and demeaned the President. A source told the Liberian Billboard that Mr. Tukpah on several occasions have openly criticize some of his colleagues in the party, and acts pompous while exhibiting disrespect to even the President. These are the reason Mr. Tukpah and few others who the President feel are aligned with him have not been appointed in the government, as the President does not take disrespect or power challenge lightly. The source further told the Liberian Billboard that many top brass in the party sees Mr. Tukpah as a threat to its existence, and as such, do not even bother to talk to the President on his behalf. Nonetheless, Mr. Tukpah is still heavily associated with the CDC-USA chapter. He was recently involved at its just ended convention in Fargo, North Dakota.
