Clergy blames Liberia’s backwardness on failure to learn from the past

By Lewis S. Teh

A Liberian clergy has attributed the country’s backwardness to the failure of past and current government officials to learn from the mistakes of their predecessors.

The Assistant Pastor of Victory Life Church, Mac Garlo gave the caution while delivering a sermon recently at his Church edifice on the Bushorld Island.

Victory Life Church is located across St. Paul Bridge, adjacent to the New Community Clinic in Montserrado County Electoral District #17.

Pastor Garlo wondered why governments continue to fail in providing necessities for their citizens.

He named good roads, security, education, healthcare, and electricity as age-old problems that have yet to be addressed by governments over the years.

He spoke on the theme “Your Mentality Powers Success,” from Proverbs 23:7 & and Proverbs 4:23. He urged officials of the current administration to orient their mentality and work positively for the betterment of the country and its people.

Pastor Garlo indicated that for too long Liberians have suffered a lack of access to basic life necessities, noting that it’s time to end the long-suffering and enslavement.

He however vowed to remain robust on current officials of government failure to correct the wrongs of their predecessors.
