A Need for a Mental Revolution for Corruption Control in the New
Liberia We, Liberians, must put to work the functionality of our education, not the mere acquisition of same. By some estimate, there are 350,000 Liberians who hold degrees (AA to PhD) and the number is climbing. They are all educated people and, in many cases, "highly" educated Liberians earned their degrees in advanced nations, including the US. It is commendable that some Liberians have acquired western education, but difficult to understand that some have used their learning to foster a criminal enclave once they have ascended to power. Sadly, the work of many of these learned Liberians echoes in chambers of destruction. Any leader who makes foxes into judges – judges who close their eyes when they see the truth, defy the law and turn blind eyes and deaf ears in upholding their sacred oath and in administering the law of our nation fairly and equitably – belongs in the pits of hooliganism along with his/her appointees.

In
recent months, there had been incessant accusations against
Commissioner Sheikh Kafumba Konneh of the Truth and Reconciliation
Commission (TRC) about roles he had allegedly played during the
Liberian civil war as a backer of the disbanded rebel faction,
United Liberation Movement for Democracy in Liberia (ULIMO).
Prince
H. Konteh, a 35-year-old resident of central Monrovia is dying
slowly and is in need of an urgent medical attention.
In
its latest but preliminary report, the Liberian Truth and
Reconciliation Commission (TRC) says it has determined that all
warring factions are responsible for the commission of gross human
rights violations in the country including war crimes and crimes
against humanity.
WASHINGTON
– Stepping into history, Barack Hussein Obama grasped the reins of
power as America's first black president on Tuesday, saying the
nation must choose "hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict
and discord" to overcome the worst economic crisis since the Great
Depression.
(Monrovia,
January 15, 2009) – A prominent son of Nimba County, Mr. Abdulah
K. Dunbar, is commending President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf for holding
meetings with senior officials of Nimba including leading members of
the Mandingo, Mano and Gio ethnic groups aimed at discussing the
land disputes, and development initiatives among others.
It
was in the interest of national reconciliation and the promotion of
an environment of genuine coexistence that the Truth and
Reconciliation Commission (TRC) was established as part of
resolutions at the Comprehensive Peace Agreement in Accra in 2003.
NEW
YORK (AP) - Judging by the lineup, Sunday's inaugural celebration
for Barack Obama at the Lincoln Memorial is a coveted gig for
music's top names.
After
nearly a four-month break, members of the 52nd Legislature began
work yesterday at the Capitol Building in Monrovia.
The
Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has suspended the
Republic of Guinea from all meetings of its Heads of State and
ministerial levels until constitutional order is restored. It has
also called on the ruling National Council of Democracy and
Development (CNDD) military junta of Guinea to take immediate steps
to restore constitutional order in line with ECOWAS Protocols.
Understanding
that Liberians in the United States have an incredible potential to
assist in resolving some of the most pressing challenges currently
facing Liberia, Liberian Ambassador to the U.S., Nathaniel Barnes,
is looking to fully engage the Diaspora in helping to achieve the
goals outlined in the Government of Liberia’s Poverty Reduction
Strategy. To do this, the Liberian Embassy in Washington, D.C. is
creating the Liberian Diaspora Advisory Board which will be made up
of Liberians and non-Liberians in the following three categories:
The
committee set up by the President to probe a barrage of email
messages released through a media outlet late last year linking
Willis Knuckles, a confidante of President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf,
and several government officials to bribery has submitted its final
report.
School
administrators in the Buuyao Chiefdom, Zoe-geh District in Nimba
County, say their schools are experiencing a decline in student
enrollment, especially female students owing to a number of school
girls abandoning classes for female genital mutilation (FGM) or the
Sande society.
(Monrovia,
Liberia-December 30, 2008) The former Deputy Chief of Mission of the
Liberian Embassy in Washington, D .C is again appealing to President
Ellen Johnson Sirleaf to personally intervene into the land dispute
in Ganta City, Nimba County involving the Manos and Gios on one hand
and the Mandingoes on the other hand.
