The Senate plenary has voted unanimously to sue the House of Representatives for the "wrongful" interpretation of Article 34d(i), of the Liberian Constitution of 1986. Since then the iron ore concession – the area where the ore mining was done – only boasts of idle machines gathering rust. The 25-year China Union agreement was expected to generate 3,000 to 4,000 jobs with an additional 15,000 indirectly, which hardly came to fruition. But Bao Chico insists that it will be mining iron ore in Gbarpolu County. In the absence of China Union activity currently on the existing rail line, there is still a lot of ongoing commercial activity along the railroad.
