Saleeby Booted Out of CBL The Analyst (Monrovia)
Ellie Saleeby, the man who presided over the Central Bank of Liberia (CBL), the nation's highest monetary institution amidst controversies and allegations of impropriety has finally been hurried through the back door on the insistence of a visiting IMF delegation to Liberia.

The delegation is in the country, according to our sources, to help reconstruct Liberia's broken monetary links with the outside world and establish conduits through which funds promised by donors during the recent Conference on the Reconstruction of Liberia held last February in New York.

3 More "Presidents" Surface

The date for Liberia's presidential and general elections remains uncertain, but the list of presidential hopefuls gets longer and longer while, interestingly, the country remains bankrupt for legislative candidates. The newest names in the presidential theater are former deputy Information Minister J. Milton Teahjay, former Foreign Minister Lewis G. Brown, and former National Patriotic Party (NPP) Chairman Soko Brown.
 
Already, the three presidential hopefuls have reportedly organized exploratory campaign committees and taken other actions to enter the crowdy race to Liberia's Executive Mansion.

Freeze assets of ex-Liberia president, banks told

Understanding Johnson-Morris’ Election 2005 Edicts (Nat Galarea Gbessagee)
Former Liberian chief justice Frances Johnson-Morris raised eyebrows in Liberian social and political cycles late April 2004 when she publicly advocated for reduction in the number of political parties in Liberia in time for the 2005 Liberian general elections, even if achieving such reductions meant contravening the 1986 Liberian constitution. Mrs. Johnson-Morris, also a former head of the church-sponsored Liberian human rights group, the Catholic Justice and Peace Commission, is the newly appointed chairman of the National Elections Commission of Liberia (NEC), the body charged with planning and supervising the 2005 Liberian general elections

The Soundness of Taylor’s Indictment (By Alvin J. Teage)
The indictment against Charles M. Taylor (defendant) for crimes against humanity has left an embarrassing mark on Liberia. This is the first time a Liberian has been indicted for such heinous crimes, and the defendant’s soon-to-come trial before the Special Court for Sierra Leone is likely to generate more international attention. But does the indictment violate Liberia’s Constitution as Mr. S.L. Lofen Keneah, Jr. suggestion?


YOUNG LIBERIAN WRITER SHARES HIS PAIN IN BOOK
For Liberian writer, Nvasekie N. Konneh (NNK), the September 11 terrorist attack on the United States was a profound moment of deep soul searching. He shares the same religious faith with those who masterminded this terrible act and at the same time serving in the United States navy having taken an oath to “defend and protect America against its enemies, foreign and domestics.”

 

As a way of registering his own feeling of disapproval of this terrible crime committed in the name of a religion, NNK was inspired to write a book entitled “ Going To War For America”, which he officially launched Saturday (April 24) at a well-attended program at the ACANA Hall in Philadelphia. The book is a collection of poetry.

Most of the 250 men and women who arrived by truck at the cantonment site 30 kilometers (18 miles) northwest of Monrovia were children when they took up arms behind Taylor during the back-to-back civil wars that battered the nation of 2.9 million from 1989 to 2003.

The President of LASWEDEN, Hon. James Sackor Bartee: "We are of the opinion that this will be a time for Liberians to recollect and reconcile with one another.

The FOFANAS, including their spouses and immediate and distant relatives, residing in Continental Africa (Liberia, Guinea, Ivory Coast, Sierra Leone, Mali, etc.) and outside of Continental Africa, including the United States, Europe, and Asia, would like to exploit this occasion to extend their sincerest and heartfelt thanks and appreciation to all the good and amicable people who have sympathized and continue to sympathize with them on the deaths of their beloved ones, Mohammed A.

May their souls rest in perfect peace and light perpetual shine on them, Ameen!

Liberia's second rebel group starts handing in guns
MONROVIA, Liberia (Reuters) -- Fighters from a Liberian rebel faction known as Model handed over guns Tuesday in the port city of Buchanan, following the lead of a larger rebel group that began disarming last week.

Be ware of them!
What a hard way to learn your lesson from your mistakes! They come with bag full of empty lies. They do not care about what happens to you afterwards, they are only interested in their own welfare. Do not let them give you guns again for empty promises. Value you own lives and those of other Liberians. Do not kill your own people again because somebody promises to give you something he does not own…BE WARE OF THEM!

LIBERIA: Bitter LURD fighters say their leaders betrayed them
GBARNGA, 19 Apr 2004 (IRIN) - Former fighters of Liberia’s LURD rebel movement say they are happy enough to hand over their guns to UN peacekeeping troops, but many grumble that they have been forgotten and abandoned by their own political leaders.

The United Nations Mission in Liberia (UNMIL) launched a programme to disarm, demobilise and rehabilitate an estimated 40,000 to 50,000 former combatants throughout Liberia in the northern town of Gbarnga last week.

IMF Assessment & Development Priorities in Liberia
(Nat Galarea Gbessagee)
In his article, "Calm Against Corruption: All is Not Lost," (New Democrat, 16 April 2004), Mr. Kolec E. Jersey gave an upbeat account of a recent report by an IMF Assessment Team to Liberia, and cautioned fellow Liberians to "calm down a bit about some of our judgments on the transitional government, take a deep breath, and not be carried away by news report emanating from Monrovia."

THE FOUNDATION'S POSITION STATEMENT
Our nation has been confronted by social and political instabilities for a long time, and such instabilities have been dominated by greed, ethnic and religious intolerance, which have affected the entire nation.

We have seen, among other things, a disproportionate number of the Liberian youths deprived of formal education, used as fighters for the various armed groups, and have been repeatedly let down. Indeed, the civil-war years have placed huge burdens on our nation, and we strongly believe that it is our duty to take responsible steps to move the nation from the current state of despair to that of peace, stability, and development.

UN Resumes Disarmament of Liberia's Former Combatants
The United Nations has resumed the long-delayed process of disarmament in Liberia after an initial attempt in December was suspended amid chaos.

The first five days of the new disarmament campaign will focus on the central town of Gbarnga, a stronghold for the rebels from Liberians United for Reconciliation and Democracy, or LURD.

Give Politics New Meanings And Practices For The Good Of Our Society.
Open Letter From Dr. Joseph Korto: A commanding priority is to give politics new meanings and practices for the good of our society. Thus, we cannot afford for the crucial 2005 elections to be business as usual, or politics the old Liberian way.

In view of the foregoing, we must remind ourselves of those old political values, attitudes and practices that have given politics bad tastes and failed results in Liberia. Our failure to do so would certainly give the upcoming crucial elections a bad beginning.

Guinea leaders barred from travel

Why elections in the cloud of terror?
A rejoiner to "PUTTING THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE IN LIBERIA"
Mr.Editor,I am writing to admonish Liberians to do away with the notions of holding elections in two years. Fourteen years of devastation and ballyhoo can not be remedied within twenty four months.Chance should be given to the present government to solidify its foundation for lasting peace.No single stone of terror should be left untouched by the government in making all of Liberia safe for normal life.

I am just grateful to God for making me achieved this feat."

A son of the Quadu-Gborni Mandingo chiefdom in Lofa County, Korleh is a an energetic and a tenacious young man, who has always been in the lead advocating for the betterment of Liberian youths in the Americas and in his native country, Liberia. "I want to see the future leaders of my country become productive citizens that our country would depend on tomorrow," said Korleh.

Clashes reported in central Liberia despite UN warning
MONROVIA (AFP) - Clashes and looting were reported in a central Liberian town, after UN forces in the west African country vowed to crack down on fighters whose actions could derail the fragile peace process.

PUTTING THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE IN LIBERIA
Will Liberia be a "normal functioning society" in 2006 after the elections? I doubt it seriously. Should general elections be our mean concern right now in Liberia? I do not think so. If we hold elections in 2005 without the scrupulous implementation of the provisions of the cease-fire agreement in its entirety ensuring a stable political environment, in which our people can live in freedom under the law, and true lasting peace from any threat against their security, we will  be "PUTTING THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE" again just like we did in 1997.  Remember the old Liberian saying, "Hurry, hurry burst trousers".

Rehabilitation of a Nation: Liberia’s Path to National Recovery-The Need to Utilize the Services of Liberian Professional Psychotherapists
As the war in Liberia has been declared over after fourteen years of blood letting, the nation is now in a position to regroup and move forward in a fashion that will lead to total resettlement of internally displaced people (IDP) and refugees returning to the country, rehabilitation, reintegration, reconstruction and above all, empowerment of the people of the nation. The situation in the country for the past fourteen-year has been very appalling and I do not know whether people in the United States and other parts of the world are well informed about our plight as a nation.
