Under the current regime, the people of Liberia continue to be subjected to the whims and caprices of their abusers.
They continue to tolerate all kinds of unbearable inconveniences at the hands of the very people that tortured them, killed their relatives and friends and destroyed their villages rather than risk a repeat of another 14 years war. And they only do so because of the love they have for a single man, a world soccer star (George Opong Weah).
But to tolerate an inconvenient situation is only temporary. It is to do so until a permanent solution is reached. It is to do so until the storm is calm so that justice will be served.
The truth is, it has been almost three years
or so now and the storm has since calmed. But there has been nothing put into place to address this unwanted situation.

or so now and the storm has since calmed. But there has been nothing put into place to address this unwanted situation.
With demonstrated arrogance, former warlords and their associates are favorably rewarded with fat paying government jobs while victims go to bed in anger, hunger and fear. This alone has greatly diminished the once-promising legacy of a very great man (George Opong Weah).
The question now is, how long can Liberians hold on?
How long can they tolerate these unbearable inconveniences at the hands of their own George Opong Weah?
Just how long?
