The administration of President George Weag has been warned that the ongoing bicentennial celebration is being held within an environment of high inequality, unemployment, political corruption, and mass poverty among the people of Liberia. The bicentennial celebrates the arrival of the first group of freed African-Americans to Liberia, marking the beginning of the establishment of a modern state in Liberia. "Naymote joins President George M. Weah in calling for national unity and reconciliation as we commemorate this bicentennial anniversary. Naymote also implores the government to accelerate the implementation of the Local Government Act of 2018 and enact the Revenue Sharing Bill. "National unity will depend on recognizing the contributions of all Liberians to the establishment, growth, and development of Liberia over the last two centuries," Naymote.
