One Government, Two Driver’s Licenses
…Jarwolo Slams Institutional ConfusionBy Amos HarrisEddie D. Jarwolo, Executive Director of NAYMOTE–Partners for Democratic Development, has issued a sharp rebuke of the Liberian government over what he describes as a dangerous and unacceptable governance failure in the issuance of driver’s licenses by two separate state institutions. Driver’s licenses, he noted, are not merely permits to operate vehicles but are essential government-issued identification documents relied upon by law enforcement agencies, banks, and immigration authorities. Since taking office, President Boakai has pledged to restore integrity, accountability, and professionalism across public institutions. Analysts suggest that the driver’s license controversy now stands as an early and telling test of that commitment. Establishing a single, transparent, and legally mandated licensing authority is fundamental to sound governance, public trust, and national security.

Beyond the Horsepower: Liberia’s High-Stakes Gamble to Conquer the Mud
By James T. BrooksFor generations, the rhythm of Liberia’s progress has been dictated by a relentless cycle of dust and debris. During the parched dry season, laterite roads bake into bone-jarring, ribbed washboards that punish vehicles and exhaust even the most seasoned travelers. Yet, when the skies open, these vital arteries dissolve into treacherous canyons of mud, effectively isolating rural farms, clinics, and markets from the rest of the republic. Ultimately, the arrival of the first shipment in late March will signal a test of governance rather than horsepower. For the Boakai administration, the challenge is to prove that disciplined management can finally break Liberia’s long-standing cycle of broken pavement and empty promises.

As of press time, the office of Senator Numene Bartekwa has yet to issue a public statement regarding the matter.

Nigeria’s South East Development Commission and Political Extortion
The occasion was the launch of the Stakeholder consultation of the South East Development Commission (SEDC) for its regional development plan called Southeast Vision 2050 (SEV2050). The Commission is one of the four regional development commissions established by President Tinubu under the Ministry of Regional Development. Preceding these, the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) has been in existence since 2000, and the North-East Development Commission (NEDC) since 2017. Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, coincidentally the Chair of the South-East Governors Forum, was the only one of the five governors who did not attend in person. For long, the NDDC has defined the business model of the regional development commissions.

Liberia: Rep Koinah’s Oversight Draws Widespread Praise as MNG Gold Restores Key Roads in Kokoyah, District One
KOKOYAH, Bong County – Residents of Kokoyah, District One in Bong County are praising Representative Prince K. Koinah following the rehabilitation of long abandoned farm to market roads linking Kpoizon Town and surrounding communities to major trading centers. For decades, communities along the St John River Bank from Bahn Town to Kpoizon Town lived in near total isolation with footpaths serving as the only connection to markets schools and healthcare. Community leaders say Rep. Koinah responded without delay by engaging the management of MNG Gold through several high level meetings and follow ups that ultimately resulted in action on the ground. Beneficiaries of the road project have been vocal in praising Rep. Koinah for what they describe as selfless leadership and commitment to the people. Motorcycle rider Joseph Doe who now transports goods along the newly rehabilitated route said Rep Koinah has opened doors for young people to earn a living.

Liberia: Jeety Rubber Brings Relief to Gbarnga Central Prison as Inmates Praise Life-saving Water Intervention
Gbarnga, Bong County — Relief has begun to reach inmates at the Gbarnga Central Prison following intervention by Jeety Rubber and its subsidiary, Salala Rubber Corporation, to address a prolonged water crisis that left prisoners and officers struggling for basic survival for more than a year. Inmates were reportedly forced to depend on nearby communities for water, a situation prison authorities and human rights advocates described as degrading and unsafe. Responding to the public outcry generated by the reports, Jeety Rubber and SRC moved swiftly to provide immediate relief. The companies repaired a damaged hand pump within the prison compound, restoring limited water access while engineers conducted a technical assessment of the facility’s water infrastructure. Prison authorities also emphasized that reliable water access is critical for daily prison operations, including cooking, sanitation, and disease prevention.
