Our "honorable assemblies" were caught with their pants down again. This time it is to be audited based on the assets declared to the National Elections Commission before the elections of 2005. The audits to be done are to check any changes in assets as well as to determine if said asset holders have paid their taxes on these assets.
Oh, how your can act like that so.
Tactic now being used:
Summon the messenger, threaten the messenger behind closed doors, demand that the letter informing them of the audit be rescinded since, it was not written by the Auditor General. Same old same old.

Presidency is not a reward
A lot of our "politicians" bring up and always try to highlight their past deeds and acheivements as ground to become the President of our nation. Others exaggerate their untimely remittences to family members as sponsoring scholarships to ordinary citizens.
They make it sound as if this qualifies them to become President.
Let me just make it clear that the Presidency of Liberia is not a reward, not even an acheivement. Although our politicians mentality would encourage them to persue these ambitions, one of the main reasons for this is simple greed.
Look at the Precidency as an opportunity to take Liberia forward. See it as a daunting task to improve the lives of all our citizens. Forget your greed for power and think forward. Show us what you will try to acheive, instead of dwelling in the past.

Still waiting for answers
We are still witnessing these unholy marriages amongst our politicians, and they seem to be pairing up majestically. This is expected, and we will continue to be surprised as time goes by.
What I am still waiting for is honest declarations of platforms, how to acheive these. Up until now we are still seeing people with similar goals all looking to grab the spectre and run. I still say that all these different people want the same thing, or at least that is what they say. Then why do they not unite with other like-minded and become more convincing.
Not in Liberia though, that will never happen. Everyone has an ego to feed. Pity that.
