Weah: “What was damaged during the 14 years of civil war,” he said, “cannot be fixed in a day’s time. This government is focused on rehabilitating Liberians whose lives were damaged. I want you not to join those who are undermining the country through protests. Join me to rebuild the country.” As part of his development plans, President Weah said the government was exerting efforts to change the lives of Liberians, by building concrete homes in place of the huts they have been living in over so many decades.

    The Editor,   Under this Weah regime, Liberia is a country where the competent are downsized and the incompetent are employed, which means the worst and the least qualified are in charge while our best and most qualified are sidelined largely due to politics. And those who have been employed don’t understand the magnitude, prominence, and potency of the positions they serve.  They are very oblivious and zero in understanding and suffer from a high level of dyslexia, brain injury, and semi-literacy. It is only under Mr. Weah…

  By Mustapha N. Kanneh   When the rotten CDC establishment rose to the pinnacle of national leadership after the country’s erstwhile president, that modern-day Jezebel who foisted on the Liberian people Mr. Weah, an empty vessel, a man suffering from intellectual kwashiorkor, and an ideologically disadvantaged ex-soccer star, we knew that the country had been submerged in a sordid pool of corruption, grinding poverty, and grotesque incompetence.  While a few of our compatriots saw Mr. Weah and the CDC as the answer to the Liberian development quagmire, we saw…

Statement Hello fellow Liberians. In this public manner, we condemn, deprecate, and denounce in no uncertain terms, the unprovoked attack on the members of the Student Unification Party (SUP) by the pro-government militia force of the ruling Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC) on the 175th anniversary of the Republic of Liberia. According to all reliable accounts, the students were attacked while they were exercising their constitutional rights to freedom of assembly and speech.  Worst still, we have learned that the police were basically a dereliction of their duty, by watching…

  With Ekena Wesley   In spite of historical contradictions, President Weah and his administration chose to proceed with their elaborate celebrations of Liberia’s Bicentennial Anniversary marking the arrival of freed slaves of African descent in 1822 to the so-called land of return, apparently dubbed by the Bicentennial Working Group. On Sunday, at an Intercessory Service on the grounds of Liberia’s partially renovated Executive Mansion, President George Weah called for national unity, adding: “Politics Should Not Define Us.” he is right! But should we take a politician’s word by merely…

admin2, , 0 comment

  By Martin K. N. Kollie The second Liberian Republic has had a lot of ups and downs. Between 1980 and 2017, no presidential candidate has ever won a landslide in any given election as compared to NPP flagbearer Charles G. Taylor. 13 political parties participated in the 1997 presidential election. Taylor won all of them at once with 75.33% (468,443 votes). There was no second round or run-off.  This was indeed a landslide victory. There were also 13 counties at that time but Taylor still could not win 12…

President Weah violates all the laws of his country with a bellicose fist!

admin2, , 0 comment

  By Robert Moncio Kpadeh   George Weah runs a hawkish kleptocracy (a criminal empire). He is a lawless President who violates all the laws of his country with a bellicose fist. His citizens are “dirt poor”, jobless and dying on a daily basis from extreme hunger. His economy wallows in total shambles. In the name of “Stimulus Package”, he shamelessly begged the IMF for a loan to buy rice, oil, and beans for his people (an unsustainable food distribution that now seems delusional)— meaning he is a father who…
