President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has hailed the women of Liberia for making tremendous progress that has impacted not only Liberia but also the world with women advancing everywhere and every day. President Sirleaf noted that the celebration of Liberian women cannot be restricted to Liberia alone because, according to her, women across the world were making immense progress also like the women of Liberia. President Sirleaf said the celebration should be about celebrating all women around the world for their advancements in competing with their male counterparts. Day Two of the Colloquium will be an honoring program for President Sirleaf by the Women of Liberia to mark activities for International Women’s Day. In another development, President Sirleaf made a brief stopover at the Palm Grove Cemetery on Center Street in Monrovia to inspect ongoing works.
