Pres. Weah Consoles Turkey and Syria Following Devastating Earthquake

Monrovia, Liberia - The President of the Republic, Dr. George Manneh Weah has conveyed profound sympathy to the governments and peoples of Turkey and Syria following heavy loss of lives from a massive earthquake that struck the two countries early on Monday.

The quake, which measured 7.8 magnitude, is said to be one of the largest that has hit the region, killing thousands of people in both Turkey and neighboring Syria.

It was followed by powerful aftershocks that resulted in enormous damage to infrastructure in the affected areas.

President Weah has said Liberia stands in solidarity with Turkey and Syria during this difficult period for the two nations and offered to support in whatever way may be deemed necessary. He said Turkey has been a true friend and partner in Liberia's development drive and that it was very sad to see them grapple with such a natural disaster.

The World Health Organization has expressed fears that the death toll, which currently stands at nearly three thousand people, could "rise eight folds" as rubbles are cleared.

President Weah Wants African Carbon Market Operationalized, Reiterating Liberia’s Commitment

Congo Town, Liberia - The President of the Republic, H.E. Dr. George Manneh Weah has renewed his advocacy for the establishment and operationalization of an African Carbon Market in order to help build and strengthen capacities and resilience against climate change.

It can be recalled that at COP 26 held in Glasgow, Scotland in 2021, the President proposed the idea of an African Carbon Market as the basis for a concerted effort to address climate change, while utilizing the associated opportunities for the socio-economic development of the people.

President Weah, renewing the call Thursday, February 2, 2023 at the opening of a two-day Liberia Forest and Climate Resilience Forum at the EJS Ministerial Complex, described the gathering as part of a national vision for managing the country's forests in a sustainable way.

He said it is also the country’s way of contributing to global efforts to address climate change, while leveraging carbon payments for national and community development.

The President then reiterated his call for Liberia and other countries in the region to work together with development partners and the private sector to establish and operationalize an Africa Carbon Market.

He said the Liberia Forest and Climate Resilience Forum marks an important milestone in the government's collective efforts to achieve the goals of the Pro-Poor Agenda for Prosperity and Development (PAPD), through sustainable forest management and climate finance.


President Weah asserted that the government was particularly looking forward to how it can strengthen partnerships and renew commitments for ensuring sustainable forest management in Liberia and enhancing climate resilience.

“The steps we are taking today as a government, with the support of our development partners, will not only help achieve socio-economic development in Liberia.

BREAKING NEWS!

The U.S embassy has today February 2, issued SECURITY ALERT for its citizens travelling at Liberia's only International airport! It can be recalled months ago, the CDC government allocated 25 million U.S dollars to address significant shortcomings that had emerged at the RIA.
See statement below:
The U.S. Embassy in Monrovia is aware of several recent audits of Roberts International Airport (RIA), all of which have revealed significant shortcomings in airport safety, security, and operational standards.

We are aware that RIA, the Liberia Airport Authority, and the Liberia Civil Aviation Authority have begun steps to address these shortcomings in recent months.

However, U.S. citizens contemplating air travel into or out of RIA, which is Liberia’s only international airport, should be aware that few if any of these shortcomings have been adequately resolved to date, and that several airport safety, security, and emergency response capabilities remain below international standards.

The Embassy is not aware that airlines have reduced operating schedules to RIA in response to these audit findings. We will update this message should we become aware of any such plans.

Actions to Take:

Review your travel plan.

Make contingency travel plans.

Monitor local media, airline, and travel agency websites.

Prepare for delays in travel and have funds to cover these delays.

In a bold and relentless move, smugglers have again managed to smuggle several million dollars worth of co***ne to Liberia via another container of frozen food — as was the case in October.

It has been barely four months since a group of high-ticket narcotics traffickers lost their US$100 million consignment of co***ne to the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency with the help of the United States DEA and a local company.

The drug bust, which took place in early October, was certified as one of the highest value drug consignments arrested on the African continent and made headline news across the world.

It seemed to put narcotics traffickers on notice that Liberia would not tolerate that kind of business. But not for long. In a bold and relentless move, smugglers have again managed to smuggle several million dollars worth of co***ne to Liberia via another container of frozen food — as was the case in October.

However, on January 30, TRH Trading Corporation, the largest importer of frozen foods in Liberia, alerted authorities of the LDEA, the Liberia Seaport Police, the Liberia Maritime Authority and the Port Facility Security Office in Liberia to yet another attempt by drug smugglers to bring narcotics in the country.

According to a statement from TRH, the container seized on Monday is marked MNBU4204747, with products manufactured by the Brazil Frozen Food company (BRF), which supplies frozen goods to its many customers in countries all over the world.

The drugs, seized Monday at the Freeport of Monrovia, were stored in 11 packs, believed to be worth millions of US dollars. The drug seizure on Monday marks the second time in barely four months that TRH Trading has brought to the attention of authorities, attempts by drug smugglers to infiltrate the system in Liberia.
