Assistant Labor Minister Jackson Wolobah Donates Slippers to Zorzor Communities
ZORZOR, Liberia — in a heartwarming display of generosity and community spirit, Assistant Labor Minister for Statistics and Research Jackson Forkpayourgbortamakeliyan Wolobah , a proud son of Zorzor District in Lofa County, made a significant donation during a whistle visit back home on Monday September 22, 2025.
Returning from a fruitful trip to South Korea, Minister Wolobah did not just come home to celebrate a traditional festival; he also brought a wave of smile to his people.
The occasion was the graduation ceremony of a Sande School in Zelemai, his ancestral town, but the highlight was his impactful donation aimed at identifying with vulnerable groups and health workers in the district.
In a spirited gesture, Minister Wolobah presented a total of 285 pairs of rubber slippers, to health workers, the disabled, vulnerable populations, and children.
The donation included 105 pairs of rubber slippers for the Zorzor District Health Team, with 60 designated for the disabled and vulnerable communities in Zulor Town, and 60 each for children in Wakesu and Borkeza Towns.
The move is seen as part of the ruling Unity Party's ongoing effort to connect with grassroots communities and demonstrate true leadership.
Making remarks at the Zorzor District Health Team, Wolobah emphasized that his contributions are a reflection of the Unity Party's commitment to appreciate those who have contributed to the nation's progress.
"This is our way of giving back to the people who have supported us and made it possible for us to stand where we are today," he declared passionately.
He also urged local health officials to feel free to reach out to his office for assistance in any area where intervention is needed, reaffirming his dedication to serving Zorzor and Salayea Districts. "I owe much to Zorzor and Salayea Districts, it’s their grace and blessings that have elevated me to where I am now," Wolobah stated with humility and pride.
The donation was warmly received by the Curran Lutheran Hospital Nursing Services Director James P.G Lavela, and Zorzor District Health Officer T. Michael Youdee, who lauded Wolobah and the Unity Party for their generosity and commitment to community development.
The event was bolstered by the presence of Unity Party Zorzor District Chairman Ballah Kokolee, who joined Minister Wolobah in making the donation, symbolizing unity and shared purpose among party members and constituents alike.
