Liberia’s West Point Fishing Community weathers the COVID-19 health crisis and survives

Even before the COVID-19 virus pandemic hit, the people living in Liberia’s West Point community were used to dealing with a major public health crisis. West Point is a sprawling slum fishing community situated in the heart of the capital Monrovia on the shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean. The settlement, which has more than 75,000 residents, provides an interesting insight into the depth and scale of the socio-economic knock-on effect of the COVID-19 outbreak in Liberia. Due to various existential risk factors, West Point residents constitute the most vulnerable segment of the urban population. This is because of the dearth of basic social amenities, something attributable in large part to political neglect in promoting development in this area where livelihoods are being threatened and impacted by sea erosion. https://rb.gy/hvpm

Dear Minister Ziankahn,

Please permit me to respectfully disagree with your inflammatory, inciting, and irresponsible statement made by you on February 11th during the celebration of Liberia’s Armed Forces Day. Specifically, this portion of your statement caught my attention: “Our passionate plea will don’t dare cross the democratic red line beyond the people’s collective will if your dream falls short.” What is your definition of a red line in a democratic process and who determines this red line? You or the Constitution of Liberia? https://rb.gy/qlsngu
