Monrovia – Information Culture and Tourism Minister Lenn Eugene Nagbe has shared Liberia’s experience in curbing corruption with the Global Governance & Fight Against Corruption at the Crans Montana Forum in Brussels, Belgium. President Sirleaf inherited not a government to administer, but a failed state to rebuild. Our Government under the Leadership of President Sirleaf has leveraged these institutions, with marked progress, to prevent public sector corruption, waste and abuse. Minister Nagbe, however, admitted that fight against corruption has not been an easy one for President Sirleaf’s government. He said despite strong political will to fight corruption expressed by concrete actions such as indictment of high profile government officials and even ruling party’s executive amongst others, progress in the fight against corruption has been slowed by an opaque Judiciary and a push-back in the National legislature.
