President Sirleaf you urging Liberians to protect national and security
interest in the country. For test #1 can you put stop to this ritualistic
kills in River Cess County and the NIGEE SOCIETY with the Banny and
Gbasaygee families who are working for you and your administration? They
just kill a school teacher called Anthoney Garmonyou Zoko in Cestos City.
Senator Jonathan Banny just went to Nigeria, were you the President that
sent him and for what? If you want peace in Liberia , please found the
missing school teacher, it is going to two months and nobody can found him.
He was married to Sammy Gbasaygee daughter and lives in the same house with
the Gbasaygees.
Corruption is a cancer that is exponentially destroying Liberia. The three
branches of government, Executive, Legislative, and Judiciary are those who
are involve in corruption. These branches of government have encourage
corruption and all members benefit from corruption in Liberia. Corruption
discourage job creation. For example, I want to work an insurance business
that deals with automobile insurance in Liberia. But how can I collect
premium from Liberians who I will not be able to pay because the police and
the judiciary are so corrupt. A good government that fight corruption
through the judicary and promotes accountability allows individuals to open
business because people believe in the judiciary. But from my point of
view, the judiciary is corrupt and rotten with some members with
credibility problem.
Seventy five per cent of Liberians who responded to Transparency International's survey on global corruption admitted to having paid a bribe to a public body in the last year - the second highest number out of 107 countries, the organisation announced on Tuesday.
President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has dismissed the Auditor-General of the General Auditing Commission (GAC), Robert Kilby and the Director-General of the General Services Agency (GSA), Ms. Pearine Davis-Parkinson, for non-compliance with, or violation of, public financial management and procurement laws.
The ACP-EU joint parliamentary Assembly delegation Friday concluded their three-day fact finding visit to Liberia and presented its findings to the Government of Liberia during which it lamented the lack of prosecution in corruption cases in the post-war nation.
