Liberia is today receiving one of the world's leading hips pops musicians, Alieue Phieme alias Akon. According to organizers of tomorrow's show, the megastar will touch Liberia via the Roberts International Airport (RIA) soil of Liberia at about 9:00pm at the Roberts International Airport.

I am in disagreement with Immigration Enforcement officers are being used to protect Mega Star Akon. Mr. Massaquoi, and the Liberian government should know better. One would assume the government is expecting an alien invasion. Use our resources wisely. This man has his own security. Liberian police could be used as back up, dealing with traffic and security for the Liberian people. Their should be no reason to have the NBI,AFL,NSA,SSS and IMMIGRATION.
P.S. If UNMIL wants to assist with security for AKON, that's good. ~DR. PELLAR
I'M SORRY DOC. BUT THERE WERE NO IMMAGRATION, SSS, AFL, OR NBI SECURITY OFFICERS SERVING AS BODYGUARDS FOR AKON. HE HAD HIS PERSONAL SECURITY AND WAS GIVEN 4 POLICE OFFICERS FOR BACK UP. PLEASE GET THE FACTS BEFORE GETTING ON THE MEDIA TO HAVE OUR GOVERNMENT REDICUED.
THANKS (CORNELIUS NAGBE PONEYS)
Cornelius, the original story was written by TLCAFRICA. Obviously It is not on the site anymore, it did not make any sense to have the "immigration and other security (OPEN) assist in Mr. Akon VIP Protection".The NBI,SSS,AFL ETC, were not named but they are part of our security network, which could be part of the others they were talking about. I guess you did not read the original story. THANK YOU. ~DR.PELLAR
Crusaders For Peace Hails Pres. Sirleaf
It is so wonderful when we can come together as one and enjoy festivities as the two festivities for April 14, 2008, and April 15, 2008; but, do we have to be in confusion, or do we have to compete with each other to be heard, or seen, or to show who has the higher influence?
What's wrong with having one event in this month (especially the Akon event), since he's a brother from elsewhere, and then have the cultural festival the following month? Is somthing wrong with that?
Another thing...Is there anyone in charge of culture and tourism, who can make sure a proper coordination of events be laid out, so our president shouldn't be bothered about "who's performing what, and where"? We want our president to be our president, not Minister of Culture and Tourism. Let other people handle that, please. Please don't bother our President. You can intertain her, but don't bother her.
May God bless Liberia...may God bless the President, may God bless those international sisters, and brothers who remember us, and may God bless all Liberians, and safe our country.
Thanks Gbeh
