Bravo Ms President for the actions taken. Corruption started since 1822 with Jehedi Ashmun, and was advanced by Joseph J. Roberts after independence,so it is not your creation, but we want you to do something about it on a fair basis, not selective justice. Continue the good fight against corruption and Liberian people will stand by you. Again, thank you.
Thank you Madame President for taking immediate action in dismissing those individuals that are bent on giving your administration a bad name and on enriching themselves at the expense of the Liberian people. Under your care Liberia has come a long way and I know you will continue to do all within your power to take us to the next level. Thank you Madame President, I believe in you.
WOW! THE FIRST LAW OF “CIVIC DUTIES” HAS BEEN VIOLATED. TO THAT END, ETHICS HAS NO VALUES. THE RESULTS, “HEADS ARE ROLLED” AND MAY BE ROLLING! BY THE WAY, WHO IS NEXT? NOW THE NEW JOB FOR THE “ROLLED HEADS”: ROTATE THE SUBJECTS FROM SCHOOL TO SCHOOL; IN PARTICULAR, AMONG OUR UNIVERSITIES TO EXHIBIT THEM OR SHOW CASE THEM LIVE WITH A SIGN THAT SAYS “I VIOLATED MY ETHICAL VALUES-I VIOLATED MY CIVIC DUTIES”. ALSO CAUSE THEM TO MAKE A SPEECH ON WHAT THE VALUES ARE TO BE ETHICAL AND WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A GOOD CITIZEN. THIS MAY TEACH OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS OR LEADERS WHAT IT MEANS WHEN THEY ARE CHARGED WITH THE RESPONSIBILITIES TO SERVE, BE IT IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR (COUNTRY-COUNTY-CITY-TOWN-VILLAGE) – PRIVATE SECTOR-IN STUDENT GOVERNMENT- THE COMMUNITY IN WHICH THEY LIVE …ETC.
Bravo madame president right step in the right direction.. Too long the culture of impunity was the order of our social.It's time individuals be held responsible for their actions.Especially abusing and misuse of public office.No room for corruption in our new and vibrant Liberia.
