Monrovia — Liberians have expressed their opinions concerning the December 17 rally that will probably be hosted by the opposition Collaborating Political Events. Some say the rally is true whereas others say it’s premature.
FrontPageAfrica was within the streets speaking with Liberians days earlier than the a lot discuss we’re uninterested in struggling protests.
Sidia Swaray, Avenue Vendor on Randall Avenue:
“I’m not in favor of the protest. I do not need any issues on this nation. Let the opposition folks watch for the poll field. We’re not struggling. All of us proper like this, not less than we are able to hustle and discover one thing to eat. Their youngsters will not be right here. Allow them to discover someplace to take a seat and watch for 2023. For me, I’m not struggling. I’m comfortable with this. They wish to put our youngsters’s future behind them. We are saying no to the protest, Liberians are uninterested in the protest. No profit from all of their protests.”
Melvin Doweh, Civil Society Actor:
“The December 17 rally in my thoughts from the democratic standpoint is a instrument that reawakens the consciousness of nationwide governments. Nevertheless, this time, with the numerous achievements from the Weah-led authorities from the PAPD, we consider that this protest particularly the angle it’s coming from Lewis Brown, Cummings, is a political plan to have jobs and different alternatives however this President won’t succumb to this. We wish to say that we recognize the work of the President. Mr. Brown and his buddies have to know that the PAPD is properly on target.”
Daison A. Morris, Resident of Gardnersville:
“The protest isn’t well timed. Liberia is doing higher on this area. The nation is doing properly than lots of our neighboring nations. Which a part of this world persons are not struggling in? Will the folks struggling finish after the protest? Even within the nice UK, persons are struggling. I have no idea what the protest organizers wish to obtain. I consider that Liberians will not be even excited concerning the protest. We’re having fun with steady electrical energy proper now, have a look at the numerous developments occurring throughout the nation, Lewis Brown, Cummings, and the likes haven’t any points to protest on.”
Varney Fanhbulleh, Political Activist:
“The protest is deceptive and it’s an embodiment of insincerity from an icon who lacks morals and that worth, Lewis Brown can’t be the one to name for protest round right here. He can’t be an embodiment of the struggling we’ve in Liberia and he’s saying that we’re struggling. As a result of he isn’t gaining access to 150 gallons of fuel slip then he says the persons are struggling. Yesterday when he was Minister earlier than going as ambassador, he ever says that Liberians are struggling? It’s a critical contradiction to us. If he was the person with critical ethical rectitude, we had been going to take heed to him.”
Romeo Fanhbulleh, College students Activist:
“As a scholar activist, I assist the protest. In my thoughts the fellows’ points are vital. And I will probably be a part of the protest. You will need to specific your grievance and so protest isn’t any hurt. Even when the CDC authorities was in opposition they used to protest each time. We’re a stone’s throw away from the 2023 election and elevating the problems is the proper time. At assume the protest is sweet. The federal government ought to see this protest in good religion, it is going to give them path. Who decided that leaders of protest will not be morally upright. It’s not about morality we’re discussing the true points. Are the folks in Liberia not struggling, we are saying no, we’re struggling.”
Terry T. Geweh, Stephen Tolbert Property:
“Allow us to ask ourselves what has been the dividend of protest in our nation. Beneath the structure, it’s the proper of residents to protest. Nevertheless, in my thoughts, it’s not well timed. We’ve got been struggling for 5 years now, so why can’t watch for 9 or ten months to specific our anger on the poll field? Go from group to group and inform the Liberian people who we’re uninterested in struggling and let the nation stay calm. Go to across the nation and inform the people who come subsequent October, allow them to specific their anger by the poll field.”

“From the title we’re uninterested in struggling, it’s the actuality that the Liberian persons are struggling. All of us agree that issues are troublesome around the globe however Liberia’s scenario has come to a standstill. And so, it’s the proper time to ship the message to our authorities so not less than they’ll do one thing to enhance the lives of the Liberian folks. I consider that this protest is well timed and all of us Liberians have to rally across the organizers of the protest. This protest isn’t a miracle to finish Liberian folks struggling. This protest is there to ship out a transparent message to our leaders which might be in energy that they should do one thing to raised the folks’s lives. We nonetheless bought some months to go, let the federal government take heed to the cry of the Liberian folks and do the proper factor.”
