"Liberia cannot question Zimbabwe's democracy," says critic

A prominent citizen of Maryland County says Liberia has no moral rectitude to question Zimbabwe’s democracy.

Mr. Thomas Bedell told Star Radio as far as he is concerned, there is no democracy in Liberia.

According to Mr. Bedell Liberia cannot boast of democracy when citizens are denied basic rights to life.

Mr. Bedell said citizens are no longer secured in their own country as government has failed to protect them.

He said as a result of lack of protection bodies are discovered everyday in the streets and the killers are never found.

Mr. Bedell also said since he returned from the Unites States, he has not seen any good leadership in the country.

He observed that family values are lost, government not in control of prices, corruption remains the order of the day amongst several other issues.

bedell is right. once ellen and her band of elitists are protected, to hell with the poor . when will liberia see a leader that will walk, talk and be for the poor? the attitude of people being disappointed over and again is what brought the war in liberia and leaderships over and again have refused to adress thse issues.
