THROUGHOUT THE PAST twelve years of her reign, the Sirleaf-led government repeatedly expressed a strong commitment to tackling corruption and pledging transparency. THIS FOLLOWS reports of a number of personal projects undertaken by the President shortly after his election in January. At the time, reports around the president suggested that the money would be directed toward pavement of the southeast. THE WEAH-LED government must begin to exercise transparency and accountability in every project, down to the last penny. THE CURRENT PATH of abandoning and neglecting transparency and accountability is not only dangerous for Liberia; but sets a bad precedence that will likely haunt generations yet unborn.
