President Boakai's Drug Test Result Proves Negative!!!!

One week after declaring the drug crisis in Liberia as a national health emergency, President Joseph Boakai took a drug test himself, receiving a negative result, according to medical professionals.

The president's negative test result came after testing his urine specimen by doctors from a private clinic called the "Wellness Partners Clinic" in Liberia.

Dr. Nicole Cooper, the Founder and CEO of the Wellness Partners Clinic based in Liberia, pronounced the test results of both President Joseph Nyuma Boakai and Vice President Jeremiah Koung whose tests proved negative.

On January 26 this year during his first State of the Nation Address on Capitol Hill before lawmakers,
President Boakai urged all citizens to undergo drug testing, and that he will lead the way.

Today, Wednesday, February 7, 2024, President Joseph Nyuma Boakai and Vice President Jeremiah Koung took their drug tests at the Executive Mansion on Capitol Hill in Monrovia.

President Joseph Boakai said his decision to personally take the test underscores the seriousness, with which the government is willing to combat drug-related issues and set a precedent for transparency and leadership.

President Boakai stated, a moment after his test, that the fight against drug abuse is far from over, and his actions serve as a reminder of the ongoing need for vigilance and cooperation at all levels of society.

As Liberia continues to confront the challenges posed by drug addiction, the President's commitment to addressing the issue remains unwavering.
This development comes as the nation grapples with a prevalent drug epidemic, prompting the president to lead by example in the fight against substance abuse.

Some officials of the government who also took their drug tests are Finance Minister Boima Kamara, Minister of State Sylvester Grigsby, EPS Director Sam Gaye, Foreign Minister Designate Sara Beysolow Nyanti, Health Minster Designate Louise Kpoto, LDEA Director General Abraham Kromah, Justice Minister Cllr. Cooper W. Kruah, and others.

Press Release

UL Clarifies Purported Increase of Tuition To US$7 Per Credit

Capitol Hill, Monrovia- Liberia (January 31, 2024)

The attention of the Administration of the University of Liberia (UL) has been drawn to information circulating on social media by some unauthorized individuals seeking to mislead our students and the public by announcing a purported increase of tuition to US$7.00 per credit hour.

This information is false as there is no decision reached by the UL Administration to charge our students US$7.00 per credit hour for academic programs at the University.

The UL Administration encourages students, staff, and the public to remain calm and only subscribe to official information regarding academic activities which are always communicated through our various platforms as well as on public and private media outlets.

Additionally, the UL Administration calls on students, staff, and the public to remain calm as the Administration works to release a revised calendar for the resumption of classes for the pending second semester of the academic year 2022/2023.

We urge everyone seeking official information to utilize the University’s website: https://ul.edu.lr/ or visit our page which is named “University of Liberia – UL,” and can be accessed via https://www.facebook.com/theuniversityofliberia

Hello! – University of Liberia

Update!
Warsaw, 🇵🇱

In a recent development, it has been reported that Boima Kamara, a seasoned financial expert, has been officially confirmed as the new Finance Minister of the Republic of Liberia by the Liberian Senate. Along with him, Mr. Dorbor Jallah has also been confirmed as the LRA Commissioner General of the Republic.

The confirmation of the two officials came after they were thoroughly scrutinized during a Senate hearing held on Capitol Hill. The Senators on Capitol Hill voted unanimously to confirm both Kamara and Jallah, marking them as the first two officials of President Boakai’s administration to be confirmed by the Liberian Senate.

It is worth noting that the appointment of Boima Kamara as the Finance Minister has been widely praised by the public, given his vast experience in the financial sector. It is expected that his appointment will bring more transparency and efficiency to the Liberian financial system. Similarly, the appointment of Dorbor Jallah as the LRA Commissioner General is expected to improve the revenue collection system of the country.

Annual Message
By
His Excellency Joseph Nyuma Boakai, Sr.
President of the Republic of Liberia
The Capitol Building, Monrovia
January 29 2024

The Rescue Mission: Rebuilding Public Trust

MR. VICE PRESIDENT,
MR. SPEAKER,
MADAM PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE,
MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATURE,
MADAM CHIEF JUSTICE AND JUSTICES OF THE SUPREME COURT,
THE DOYEN AND MEMBERS OF THE DIPLOMATIC CORPS,
HEADS AND OFFICIALS OF POLITICAL PARTIES,
REPRESENTATIVES OF OUR INTERNATIONAL AND DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS,
PRELATES AND IMAMS,
OUR TRADITIONAL LEADERS,
MEMBERS OF THE FOURTH ESTATE,
MY FELLOW LIBERIANS, DISTINGUISHED LADIES, AND GENTLEMEN

We are thankful to the Lord Almighty, the Preserver of our State for His abundant blessings upon us. As the world confronts various crises – wars, pandemics, climate change, and migration – we pray for a better, more peaceful, sustainable, and inclusive global order.
Exactly one week ago, Vice President Jeremiah Koung and I took the oath of office as an array of world leaders, friends, and citizens of Liberia at home and in the Diaspora looked on. That solemn occasion marked yet another historical moment in our democracy as we carried out a transfer of power.

In obedience of my constitutional duty, it is an honor to come before this august Body, the people’s representatives, to report on the national situation as we met it and present our agenda for development in the coming year.

We must acknowledge the harsh realities that face us, as we report that the state of our nation is not what we desire. It is important to note the problems that confront us: Poverty, drug epidemic, corruption, poor infrastructure, and an underperforming economy. The current challenges present us with a unique opportunity to embark on a new journey of hope. This is our commitment to rescue the nation!

Our Vision
Our vision, as revealed in ARREST (meaning, Agriculture, Roads, Rule of Law, Education, Sanitation, Tourism) shall guide the preparation of the new Medium-term National Development Plan for the welfare of our people. We must harness opportunities in agriculture, roads, and other infrastructure development; improve the rule of law, rethink the education sector, improve sanitation, and unlock the potential of tourism.

We believe that creating economic linkages between these development facets and reinforcing them will help reverse years of economic downturns.

The State of the Economy

The state of the economy is a cause for concern, with many of our citizens facing perennial unemployment and economic instability. We must not just recognize the pain and frustration that permeate our society, but also work together to introduce and pass legislations that will prioritize economic reforms that foster sustainable economic growth and job creation.

Distinguished Legislators, economic growth slowed between 2022 and 2023, from 4.8 percent to 4.6 percent. The rate of growth averaged about 1.5 percent, compared with 3.1 percent between 2012 and 2017 due in part to an underperforming economy and the existing geo-political global environment. During the past six years, the economy faced challenges in terms of growth, job creation, and poverty reduction.

Inflation during the period 2023 rose to 10.1 percent at the end of December, from 7.6 percent in 2022. Revenue collection as reported for 2023 stood at US$710.23 million while expenditure totaled US$796.32 million; hence, a large budget deficit of over US$80 million.

We intend to change this state of the economy by thinking “outside the box”; a paradigm shift away from reliance on primary commodity export to focusing on value addition with the private sector as the engine to drive the economy. Under my Administration, the empowerment of Liberian entrepreneurship through more support will help bring back THE MADE IN LIBERIA quest for inclusive and sustainable growth and jobs. In our quest to expand the economy, we will leverage Information Communication Technology (ICT) in creating jobs, especially for our youth. To achieve this, my Administration will train up to 10,000 young people in various digital skills in the first half of 2024. The Liberian middle-class goal must be a reality in the next 6 years.

The net international reserves position reported at the end of December 2023 was US$220 million. The report of US $40 million as the GoL’s consolidated account balance as at January 19, 2024 is not supported by the fact. The balance reported by the CBL as of the same date was US$20.5 million, highly encumbered, NOT US$40 million. To this end, we re-emphasize our earlier commitment to audit and ensure that regular audits will be a culture across all branches of government, not only the Executive.
The stock of public debt at End-December 2023 stood at US$2.21 billion, an increase of 8.67 percent compared to end-December 2022 stock of US$2.08 billion. This represents a sharp increase of US$1.33 billion compared to the end of December 2017 stock of US$878.17 mi

In brief remarks during the presentation ceremony at his Rehab Residence, President Boakai thanked Mr Butler for what he called ' his kindness and show of solidarity' to his administration.

The President has however appealed to Mr. Butler to do all he can to assist the LNFS to enable it to combat growing fire disasters in Monrovia and parts of the country.
