Ellen Promised to Hold Economic Management Team Confab

Monrovia – President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has returned home from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia following her successful participation at the just ended 28th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of the African Union, which she described as ‘good’.

Speaking to journalists upon arrival at the Robert International Airport on Wednesday, President Sirleaf said she will hold an Economic Management team meeting to address concerns raised by some business people in the country.

She, however, expressed concerns over the protest by some members in the business community, but was quick to note that some of the people involved in the protest were also part of the problem because according to her some of the very business people who even closed their shops and stores in protest were engaged in hoarding the U.S dollars.

Meanwhile, the Liberian leader has assured the public that the recent technical problem at the Robert International Airport (RIA) has been adequately addressed to avoid problems that could cause delay to flights, among others.

The President was met upon arrival by senior government officials including Justice Minister, Minister of State for Presidential Affairs, Acting Foreign Minister and a host of others.
