As President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf tirelessly swings around the globe to seek for more support in order to fill the gap for Liberia’s reconstruction, the country’s foreign Partner-In-progress be encouraged by Liberians as they strive to invest in Liberia.
Liberia, a country coming out of nearly fifteen years of devastated civil war, with all of its infrastructural completely destroyed, including its human resource capacity is urgently seeking for assistance from all sectors of life in order for its citizens to jump-start their livelihood through the provision of job opportunities.
Thousands of Liberian job seekers are on a daily basis hunting for job opportunities a “safe belt” for the restarting of their livelihood to keep their families o to help restore their family dignity. who is sleeplessly hunting for credible investors for the speedy restoration of the dignity of jobless Liberians, a student of the University of Liberia and also citizen of Grand Cape Mount County, Faiweh A. Sherman is commending the Mano River Resources for its drive to adequately reduce the high rate of unemployment in the county through the identification of the county’s hidden mineral deposits through a systematic and scientific approach.
Speaking to the GNN in Monrovia yesterday, Mr. Sherman who also condemned recent media reports that certain group was pushing forward a petition at the House of Representatives to request the pull out of Mano River Resources from their county.
He said the allegation leveled against Mano River Resources, one of the pioneering mineral exploration companies in that part of the country by this group, has done nothing to bring about meaningful development in that county, and no iota of truth.
Speaking further he said, such statement should not be taken seriously by the vast majority of the people of Grand Cape Mount County.
in a serious and regrettable tone, Mr. Sherman said Liberians should learn to appreciate the effort of foreign investors, like in the case of Mano River Resources has over the past years worked hard through its exploration programs, to identify economy mineral.
These discoveries will in the long run bring smiles on the faces of the locals and the Cape Mountaineers themselves in general.
“Today a small group of people are persecuting Mano River Resources, because another “so-called Savior” has appeared, and putting more grease to their elbows in order to sing and dance to the tone of the “Johnny Just Come” newest investor,” Sherman with a serious look stressed.
The rhetorical question, one of those who spoke to the GNN also asked in a serious tone, “Who is this So- Called new investor who has brought in heavy machineries and has began extracting our minerals from the ground without taking into account the environmental impact?”
Recently a small group of people from the county a news conference in Monrovia that a petition to drive Mano River Resources from their County was in the making because, according to him it has failed to deliver positively, promises made to them.
He accused the company of engaging in diamond and gold exploitation instead of exploration, “thereby collecting bulk of the county’s mineral resources, but yet refused to provide those basic infrastructures such as roads, schools, health centers among others.
The Ministry of Lands, Mines and Energy should be in the position to establish the fact here.
