President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf has told leaders of the Mano River Union (MRU) that the region must focus on the production of rice as a way to confront the global food crisis.
Well said Madame President!
There is no shortage of good ideas in Liberia, and for that matter Africa as the whole. I have a strong conviction that African leaders, including Mrs. Sirleaf, is that they go about to search the dictionary for words to articulate their policies, but when it comes to implementation and execution of their articualated and formulated objectives and strategies you realize that they lack either the courage or know-how.
When you talk the talk, the next thin is to work the talk. Former president Charles Taylor talked sweet talks, but did not actually accomplish anything substantive.
Madame Presiden, I have a great deal of confidence in your ability to work your talks. Please don't disappoint me and many others of my compatriots.
Rice production in Liberia is by far the most important project that your government MUST achieve if you want to be remembered as Liberia's greatest leader. I believe if you depoliticize rice production and do it from the bottom of your heart and out of love for suffering populace, I believe you can succeed. But if you are doing this to win sentiments, you might get it. Political sentiments will erode the people's confidence in you and your administration.
Be a mother and a good mother to feed your family (Liberia)even if it costs you what you love so much.
Good luck and may God bless Liberia.
