Ambassador Michael McCarthy regarding the state of some health and education centers in the rural parts of the country. In a press release issued on April 26, the government acknowledged the concerns but noted that the narrative as expressed by Ambassador McCarthy was inaccurate. The Ministry of Finance and Development Planning and the Ministry of Health provided data as proof of Cash Disbursement to Health Facilities Nationwide For Year Ended FY2022 to correct the assertions made in the Ambassador’s statement that no funding was reaching healthcare centers. The top 10 receivers accounted for about $3.8 million or 59 percent of the total $7.2 million disbursed to the 70 plus health facilities across Liberia. The Liberian government remains dedicated to investing in critical health infrastructure across the country as it builds clinics and hospitals while also prioritizing human capital development.
