liberia_grxLive on radiolib.com this Sunday: The Liberian Enlightenment Forum (LEF) presents a critical analysis of the state of our nation.

“….Overall, our economy is performing well. According to 2006 estimates, real Gross Domestic Product is expected to grow at a rate of 8 percent. This compares with a 30 percent decline in 2003. This gives recognition to the propelling forces of our revived traditional engines of growth and the boom in construction activities.”

samdoeI. Samuel Doe the Unknown
Was he on the Upper Layer of the 3rd or the 7th Sky? Where on this vast planet earth was him? Was he in the inner circle of the lower region of the milky moon watching us with cold frozen eyes? Was he in his hidden corner consulting the occult science teachers as how to lighten his way with his ambitious plan of upsetting the traditional order of things in our sleeping world? Whatever might have been the case, we were unaware of his existence and we could care less who he was and what he planned to do. He was not one of those firebrand revolutionaries whose revolutionary rhetoric was sounding like sweet music in our ears.

Parker says: Sirleaf is uncorrupt; twp officials were honest
Written by J. Yanqui Zaza   
Thursday, 04 February 2010
rebutPresident Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and her friends seem to believe that they can fool all of the people all the time. For instance, Sirleaf herself has yet to explain issues surrounding the $1million check at Central Bank. Mr. Estrada Bernard, a brother in-law has not explained how he earned the $600,000.00 payment from CellCom.

sirleaf3President Sirleaf’s Second Term Pronouncement; The Political- Development Implications
So the Madam has decided to run for a second term, and there are disagreements over her statement. Pundits believe that the place of her pronouncement was not the right venue- others argued that there is no better forum to make pronouncements, because as it is, politics is an “international currency” and does not succumb to any locality and its exchange rates.

Failed Politicians - Liberian Style: A Rejoinder to Lewis Brown’s Rant
Written by R. Wesley Harmon   
Wednesday, 03 February 2010

rebutPart I

That Messrs Lewis Brown, Edwin Melvin Snowe, Winston Tubman, George M. Weah, and other Liberian politicians can spew political venom at, and criticize the Liberian presidency so freely and openly, without fear of reprisals, is testimony to how far Liberia has come in terms of political maturity, thanks, in no small measure, to the very object of their scorn, Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf. Liberia now joins Ghana, and a handful of other African countries where criticism of the president is not a capital offense.

sirleafcampaignIn Your Face: Ellen Dares Liberia’s Political Opposition
….It Is Time to Play Ball She Tells Them!

Ellen Johnson stood before the Liberian congress a week ago, enumerating her administration’s success since she assumed the mantle of state four years ago. Her address would become a bombshell that would send surge of waves way beyond the borders of Liberia and with it she broke new a barrier: being the first sitting president to announce her bid for reelection before a joint chamber of Liberian Assembly.

Commentary: American-Liberians Found Guilty of Corruption in Liberia Must Have their Days in court in US 

The culture of corruptions is deeply rooted in Liberia and goes on at almost every level of the Liberian society INCLUDING GOVERNMENT. The acts of corruption over the years has cost Liberia fortunes and deprived its citizens of THE much needed resources for development and progress. What is even more disappointing is the case of returning Liberians some of whom are naturalized CITIZENS in other countries, including the US.

GGAA: The collision of two different agendas
Written by Joseph Kweedy Solo   
Saturday, 30 January 2010

ggflag An article written by Carlton Diahn  recently appeared on the website of the Grand Gedeh Association in the Americas, Minnesota Chapter. Carlton is a young man and my cousin. His piece is so insightful that you want to wonder who is this guy. But he is a young Grand Gedean who is beginning to see things as they are in our community. People  who aspire to the leadership of this community should try to get people like Carlton on your team. He is very conscientious as oppose to some of these way ward young people most of whom are surrounding Martha Kannah. Carlton did not insult anybody.

sirleaf7Liberia’s political opposition parties are forging a marriage of convenience against the one person they love to detest the most -- President Sirleaf. Understandably, she stands in the way of their political ambition -- a seat in the Executive Mansion.

A few days ago, President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf, during her fifth State of the Union address emblazoned from the plinth of the joint assembly of the National Legislature, committed the unpardonable political peccadillo; blasphemy against the rule of law, the constitution, and democracy.

liberia_grxAFTER 4 YRS PLUS $1 BILLION, LIBERIA IS REPLETE WITH SCARY SIGNS OF FAILURE: R. TOLBERT CALLED INDIGINOUS IDIOTS, ETC

Before addressing our topic “After 4 yrs plus $1 billion, Liberia is replete with scary signs of failure,” let us revisit the issue of President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf’s business interest and “conflict of interest.” President Sirleaf’s supporters continue to say that Sirleaf having a business interest is not a crime as long as those who are crying foul do not provide evidence of a crime.
