A Liberian human rights mediator, 'Black Eagles' based in Switzerland says the nightmare of embezzlement and corruption continues to haunt Liberia.
The 'Black Eagles' challenged President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf to remain steadfast in fighting these societal ills.
A release quoted the Country Representative Isaac S. Fatamorle as saying that these vices have the tendency to create setbacks to the development agenda of Liberia.
Mr. Fatamorle recalled that years of horror and disgrace of Liberians have gone, yet the nightmare of corruption and embezzlement is still haunting the peace loving Liberians.
He urged the Liberian Government to do more to discourage dishonesty in the society, and noted that the election of President Johnson-Sirleaf has nurtured into daughters and sons of Liberia the hope for better future.

"Despite your determination to fight corruption, there are some ghosts of the past that are still undermining the endeavors of our people towards sustainable global development," Fatamorle added.
