Monrovia – Education for Liberia, Inc. Executive Director, Dr. Emmanuel Daykeay grimaced at the Ministry of Education, and is discouraged as to how the Education Ministry in Liberia is underperforming, and their performances are causing exploitations and marginalization of pupils in different schools. It all has to change!
Also, it is important to state that the bulks halt with the Ministry of Education and it is time to take responsibility for their actions. It is indeed time to stop talking and act to rescue our Education System.
Recent Statistics of the West African Examination Council (WAEC) 2016 Results illustrates that the Ministry of Education is slumbering over our children’s future.

Beginning Thursday, August 26, 2016, we will start to challenge the Ministry of Education in our country to reach out to students and parents and start educating them about strategies concerning education development, policies, and philosophies.
The Education Ministry of Liberia is repeatedly failing without any veneration to those who are affected. It has to change for the good of the country.
Using the perceptions of the students to your advantage is wrong. Schools in Liberia have a deficient education which leads everyone running after government jobs.
The government has turned to be the highest employer in the country. What has been the government, political parties’ and citizen’s contributions to school’s enhancement within the Country?
