In my article, I will be providing some facts about the strangulation of young Liberian Entrepreneurs and Businesses by the Freeport of Monrovia. James Markhan said “Don’t let taxes scare away future investors”. Is the Freeport of Monrovia scaring young Liberians who want to break out of poverty and lead a generation to prosperity? Read this paper and give me an answer.

Former Vice President Joseph N. Boakai, when will you be called by your conscience to say, ‘Enough is Enough’ and speak truth to the false prosecution of Alexander Cummings?

MONROVIA – When Alexander Cummings’ legal team alleged that evidence presented to the court by the prosecution led by Solicitor General Cllr. Syrenius Cephus was tampered with and should therefore be investigated, Cllr. Cephus swiftly responded by terming the allegation as a “slander by men of limited vision and courage”. However, on Wednesday, his team admitted to the court that there were omitted pages from the evidence, but such was an inadvertent error. The omitted pages were then submitted to the court.

MONROVIA – With the rejection of their third Mineral Development Agreement (MDA), steel giant ArcelorMittal, is obviously weighing in on their next move, of which sources within have hinted FrontPageAfrica could include taking the House of Representatives to court. But in a carefully worded press statement, the company insinuated that it has not been officially informed of the rejection of the MDA which has been sent back to the Executive. The company stated, “For now, AML is awaiting all facts related to the actions by the Legislature before it will make any further statement on this matter.”
