Liberia: Weah - Liberia Mismanages Us Aid

26 February 2018

Liberia's President George Manneh Weah says the United States (in particular), France and China cannot be blamed for Liberia's setbacks and lack of progress, arguing that "billions of dollars" given in aid by America have been mismanaged here. He gave no further details.

"So we cannot blame America. If the billions of dollars that came here, if we were going to manage it well, if we were going to be true to our people and build our roads, and build our cities, we will not be blaming America," Mr. Weah said Friday, 23 February upon return from state visits to France, Morocco and Senegal.
