EYE ON THE 2011 ELECTIONS
Written by Johannes Zogbay Zlahn   
Thursday, 13 January 2011
liberia_grxAs we approach the 2011 general and presidential elections in Liberia, the question remains as to whether or not we will vote in the national interest or on the basis of ethnic identity and connection. The answer to this question is, in my opinion, extremely important since the route we choose will have a lasting negative or positive impact on our nation and determine whether our nascent democracy will endure.

Ten Easy But Loaded Questions for President Sirleaf to Ponder In 2011
Written by Paul Jackson   
Thursday, 13 January 2011
1. Madam President, do you realize some actions are only worth pre-contemplation and not implementation- actions like firing your entire cabinet without an effective plan of action? Did you even feel an ounce of remorse for embarrassing those you rehired?

Washington Must Considered Reign Change in Burkina Faso and Liberia for Stability in West Africa

It may not be the greatest explosive revelations or the best of scenario for the current political problem in West Africa; and may most likely even sounds so bizarre to say that until Washington can reconsider, review it foreign policy, and support a reign change in Burkina Faso and Liberia, the West African sub-region remains vulnerable to instability, illegal arms dealers, and a clear-eyed epic centre for a new breeds of rising Islamic terrorists.

Open letter to President Obama
Written by Bai M. Gbala   
Friday, 07 January 2011
It is very important and significant to note here for posterity, Mr. President, that if the ethnic/tribal people of Grand Gedeh County, in collaboration with other ethnic/tribal peoples of Lofa, Bomi, Grand Cape Mount, Montserrado and Nimba Counties, as partisans of the ULIMO and LPC Resistance Movements, had not spoken loudly, eloquently and acted bravely and decisively in resisting and “standing tall” against the illegal and murderous insurgency by the NPFL, the course of recent developments and history of Liberia would be different than it is today; in that, the relative peace, law & order, individual/collective security now prevailing in the country would not have been possible.

Apply Moderation in Resolving Ivory Coast’s Crisis
Written by Alex Yallah   
Friday, 07 January 2011
....Instead of Initiating a Blood Bath.
 
Some Western and African Leaders have raised the issues that Gbagbo's policies contain a push for disunity, which I think, is a very unfair dissection. If such assertion is true, Gbagbo wouldn't have convinced other Ivoirians who were resistant to be persuaded of his proposed political reformation of the constitutional backings on Ivorian nationality.

Liberia must play a significant role in restoring peace in the French Ivory Coast!
 
Liberians still live in Ivory Coast
The situation in Ivory Coast is extraordinarily precarious to the People of Grand Gedeh County in Eastern Liberia. Remnants of Liberian refugees from Grand Gedeh, Nimba, and Maryland Counties still live in cities and villages along the borders of that country and their lives are at risk.  Also, the lives of Ivorian citizens themselves are at risk.

The Editor,

Our “Iron Lady” president has been making the rounds in and around Monrovia to show how concerned she is about the down trodden masses; she even visited the Central prison on South Beach to release some prisoners who had been imprisoned without trial for over two years.
