We need to extend our appreciation to other nations too, if we havent done so already. Nigeria devoted so much to the peace process more than any African nation, and many ECOWAS States deserve our appreciations eventhough they (ECOMOG) hurt us while trying to help us.

Yes, you are 100% correct Kamoh, Liberia can not forget Nigeria, and all the other countries. Nigeria lost more Soldiers trying to keep Monrovia safe and provided financial support when uncle Sam (U.S),left us in our trouble.

I wonder how much money it cost to stage such a meaniless charade. Liberia is a FAILED STATE. These are the facts --Right Now In Liberia--The entire country has no electricity as the electrical power stations have all been shut down for years, there is no running water supply any where in Liberia,all the water treatment facilities are closed,all the hospitals save for those maintained by the NGOS an Kohlahun Hospital ,Kennedy Hospital are closed,there is a cholera epidemic going on presently in Liberia,open sewerage flow freely in the capital city,crime is high,violation of womens body integrity is common place AIDS and TB epidemic has not been addressed,the currency has absolutely no value both inside and outside of the country,it is estimated that there are functioning toilets in Monrovia everyone use the bush toliet,yet those in charge if the government stage a gala for Kufor and knight him with a meaniless title but probably spent large amount of money to do this are they trying to appear civilized who are they trying to impress.Probably some poor Liberian who migrated to the USA because of economic migration will castigate my opinion.Usually these are refugees who are working at a non meaniful job as a janitor or working in some labor pool in the USA and is on American public assistance these ar the ones who will critise this opinion These are people who have scrounged around in some dempsey dumpster(rubbish bin) in america found a computer in a garbage bin and will willfully critise me dont critisize the messager critisize the people in Liberia who are beginning to show signs of bad governance ,vide supra..(this was a pre empative attack)

Attn: fisherperry.

Your spelling and grammer are very poor.Please go back to school. You are right that Liberia is presently a failed state,but let me inform you that your super-power country (America) contributed greatly in making Liberia what it is today.You,therefore; do not have the moral right to utter this kind of rubbish agaist Liberia. If you care, I am more than willing to educate you on the role your country played in destroying Liberia. Just let me know and I will cure your ignorance. I have lived for eight years and have not seen any wealthy aqmerican,except on TV, so I am surprised you are bad mouthing Liberians living in America.Judging from your composition I don't think neither you nor your family are wealthy.If so, you would have had the opportunity to acquire quality education.And you are not the only one who pay taxes so just keep quiet.

Africa and africans create their own problems than present these very serious problems to the world to solve the only country helping africa is the USA .The day is her and now America and the rest of the first world countries will stop helping Affrica to solve problems it has creatd as for me I am tired of seeing my US income tax money was ted in such a manner on such dsyfunctional people

Fisherperry,

You shouldn't be on this site running your mouth. You are so uninformed to the point that you know nothing about the country you claimed to be citizen of.

Liberia is not a failed. It is a state that is in transition after 28 years of mismanagement. With the right leader, leader with national interests, who knows how to manage the national resources of little Liberia, it should be back on her feet and you who running your hambeger, french fries, beer drinking empty brain, will be rushing to reclaim Liberia as your home.

I wonder if you have any idea of how your so-called tax dollar is spent? I think I would be wasting my time to explain to you how your tax dollar is wasted. But certainly, not on Liberia...

To All in this discussion:

You are empowering Fisherperry to continue his pointless comments by responding to them. I am guilty of this charge too because I remember offering a rebuttal when he said Mr. Dee (the promoted engineer)was uneducated or "not a heavyweight in the education department." Mr. Dee has BA and MA degree, according to the article. So, he (Fisherperry) doesnt read the articles he is so eager to respond to; that's why he doesnt make sense. Stop responding to him; he is wasting prescious space.
