In the wake of recent protest by residents of Caldwell Montserrado County, an emergency meeting was held between the Management of the Liberia Electricity Corporation (LEC) and citizens of Caldwell to address their plight. The communication director of LEC, Winston Bedell, told UNMIL radio earlier on Monday, Feb. 26, that a delegation representing Caldwell and the LEC authority held a fruitful meeting. According to Bedell, following the meeting, the LEC has assured residents of Caldwell that the company will begin to connect the township in the course of five weeks. He said materials to start the World Bank project was due in 5 weeks at which time LEC hopes that work can commence. He also noted that these partners work with time; therefore, Liberians need to understand that getting current is a process, not an event.
