The saying is true that it is not how long one lives but how well one lives that matters. Brother Kanty Roberts lived well not because he lived long but because he shared his vast knowledge with others. Sharing knowledge is good because it teaches others how to save lives, the main thing desired for us to do by Our Creator. Sharing knowledge is good because it teaches us to serve rather than wait to be served, the main desire by Our Creator for us to do.

Brother Kanry did not live long because he wanted to identify with others in his sharing. He ate the same food that others ate. Health Specialists say that he died of a stomach tumor. He could have avoided the tumor had he eaten good food. but he ate the same food that others ate. Instead of living to save his own life, he lived to save the lives of others. Not for self but for others was his motto. He got this motto from his family background and his work in Susukuu and MOJA.
Through his work in Susukuu, he worked to ensure that All would have equal rights, especially rights to land. Through his work in MOJA, he worked to have to have the same rights for All as seen in as seen in the Temple of Justice Yard where it took over ten years of MOJA work to have the sign on the Statue of Justice changed from Let Justice Be Done To All Men to Let Justice Be Done To All. Now women are members of the National Legislature of Liberia. But the men and women with bad records are being put out of the Legislature.
Check out the facts from the results of the October 10, 2023 Election. The Legislators with bad records who wanted to be re-elected were not re-elected. Such results came about through the raising of awareness by the people who tell the Truth. This raising of awareness exposed the corrupt practices of the National Elections Commission (NEC), resulting in the transformation of the unfair prevailing electoral system into the fair enduring electoral system. Through this transformation, Liberia achieved the world record voting of 78.86 % 0f the voting age population of Liberia.
It is only through this transformation of the electoral system that the Rule of Law can prevail in Liberia. It is only through this transformation that persons with good records can get elected to bring in the system of Justice, the indispensable ingredient for Peace and Justice in Liberia and in any other country.
