President Weah was speaking Monday before breaking grounds for the construction of a military hospital, which he named the 14th Medical Hospital, adding that the move is his “first step to building a modern and professional Liberian army”. The military hospital, which will be the first of its kind in the country, will be built within the proximity of the Edward Binyan Kessely Barracks along the Roberts International Airport highway. The hospital will be equipped with the most modern facility and will be staffed by highly trained medical personals; it will also be a teaching hospital for soldiers, President Weah said. At the ground breaking, he recalled that he brought success and proud to the Liberia and Africa in number 14 jersey. “It is the first project of my administration and I promise you that it will not be the last.”
