Alloycious David — A week after her public confession that she initially supported Exiled Former President Charles Taylor's incursion on Liberia, the President of the African Methodist Episcopal University Student Union (AMEUSU), M. Boakai Jaleiba, Jr., is demanding war reparation from Madam Ellen Johnson Sirleaf.
The University Student Leader said Madam Sirleaf should be made to pay war reparation to the family of all those that lost their lives during the country's civil war which she had admitted supporting initially.
Jaleiba who attributed the death and mass displacement of thousand Liberians during the 14-year nightmare to the infamous "level the Mansion, we will build it" statement, made by the "presidential aspirant" noted that Madam Sirleaf should be made to pay back huge returns to the Liberian people.
"Her statement left the disbanded NPFL bandits with no alternative, but to rage havoc on Liberians, thus resulting to several persons being victimized by their wicked tactics", He believed.
The AMEUSU President who also described the Unity Party Standard Bearer as a "blatant liar," said he was astonished when Madam Sirleaf admitted that she made such a statement when in fact she had persistently denied the assertions during the past years.
"Madam Sirleaf is an embarrassment to womanhood and mush be labeled as a forerunner of deceit and lies," the AMEUSU President noted in a release.
Recently at a Philadelphia Conference in the United States of America, Madam Sirleaf, described her statement as "stupid" and apologized to the Liberian people.
