An Executive of the Conau Group in Liberia has called on Liberians to take advantage of the good opportunities of investment in the country.

Speaking over the weekend at the official opening of the restaurant, Frenchies Liberia Limited held on 24th Street, Sinkor, the Conau Group Secretary, Gloria Mbanefo said if every Liberian can take this kind of opportunity to make good investment for themselves, they won't have to rely on others for money, but will afford them the chance to at least start from somewhere to improve their lives and contribute to the country's economy.

Mrs. Mbanefo indicated that while it is true that Liberians must be encouraged to take advantage of the investment opportunities, it will also be good for every citizen in the country to seize the opportunity to build their lives in order to reach out to other Liberians.

She noted that if such job opportunity is done in line with the Government of Liberia, the Poverty Reduction Strategy will be minimized and rapidly reduced in Liberia.

Mrs. Mbanefo added "let us all work together to build Mama Liberia and develop it.  If we do this, our country will become developed as compare to other West African Countries like Ghana, Nigeria and the Ivory Coast" she said.

For his part, the Consultant of Frenchies Liberia Limited, Thomas Florunso, promised that in few years to come, his entity will be expanded in all of the 15 Counties of Liberia, where every individual will afford to have an African Dish for an affordable price.

Whether you are a Liberian, Ghanaian, Nigerian or a Sierra Leonean, our meals are being prepared for all categories. He however encouraged Liberians to come ready to patronize the variety of African food and European Dishes "he averred.

He said the aims and objectives of the business is to tell the outside world how nice African food was, and that it was about time that everyone promotes the new enterprise.
