So, needless to say, I am humbled to stand in the stead of President Weah to serve at this 4th Commencement of my college, the noble and excellence-seeking Grand Bassa Community College. Furthermore, about 5,000 of the 12,000 students who would be in attendance are dependent on some form of financial aid or scholarship. These interventions have inarguably demonstrated the President’s commitment to investing in professional education which is an indispensable and essential thoroughfare to achieving excellence and success. President Weah and the government of Liberia are aware that no country can develop without investing in the education of its people. Allow me to state what most students see as obvious: academic life at Universities in Liberia is rigorous and perhaps unnecessarily tiring.
