The Montserrado District #13 Representative thanked President Weah for his untiring efforts and enormous political will in delivering quality services to the people of Liberia. He promised to cooperate with the President and his administration in making sure that the Pro-Poor Agenda for Prosperity and Development succeeds. He particularly underscored his willingness to work with Government create an enabling business environment for economic worth and prosperity.
Hon. Flomo told the President that the district was presently facing numerous challenges that needed prompt attention by the government.
He named lack of public hospital, senior high school, administrative building and guest house as some of the major facilities the district lacks.
