A Montserrado Representative has called on government to publish the map of Monrovia reflecting areas considered as alleys.

Representative Rufus Neufville believes the publication of the Monrovia map will enlighten the public about targeted areas to be demolished by Government.

He told STAR Radio it was important to know places government considers as alleys to avoid segregation in the ongoing demolition exercise in Monrovia.

Representative Neufville also called on government to set aside special funds to compensate those being affected by the alley clearing exercise.

According to him, it was wrong for anyone to have the notion that development comes with pains.

Representative Neufville stressed in all instances development comes with opportunities to improve the living condition of people and not making them homeless.

The Montserrado District-two lawmaker said government must always take into consideration the plight of the people whenever undertaking development.
