The idea of respect for everyone comes from Our Creator. We tell the Truth when we show respect. to people no matter where they come from. The lack of respect has placed Liberia in the system of poverty generation rather than poverty alleviation. It is this bad experience of poverty that has led the people of Liberia to conclude that Liberia is headed in the wrong direction (Afrobarometer, 2022).
Liberia is headed in the wrong direction as seen in the fact that poverty continues to prevail in Liberia. Look at the National Legislators of Liberia who continue to have access to at least LD200,000 a day and their foreign business partners continue to have access to at least LD300,000,000 a day while the poor people of Liberia continue to suffer having access to at most less than LD300n a day (CBL, MFDP, MOC, WB, IMF and UNDP).
It is essentially through awareness raising that the people who love Liberia continue to motivate the people to change the bad system of injustice into the good system of justice within the Rule of Law. It is through this awareness raising that almost all of the Legislators who wanted to be re-elected and the candidates who wane to be elected were not re-elected and elected, respectively.
This raising of awareness is the only and best way to change the bad system of poverty generation into the good system of poverty alleviation. It is when the candidates who have good records are elected that they can get elected to change the bad system of injustice and bring in the good system of justice for sound to prevail over noise in Liberia and elsewhere in the world.
