Constructed in the 1800s, the building first served as seat of the National Legislature, a court and later for other public purposes. We, therefore, commend President Sirleaf for her commitment to see the project through this stage of completion. With our eyes on the future we remain hopefully confident that as President Sirleaf exits the national stage, her successors will continue to uphold and build on this legacy. We pray that whoever succeeds President Sirleaf will make that a national priority that will join the museum in restoring Liberian culture for the benefit of our children, our nation and world citizens who come to visit Liberia. We pray, finally, that MICAT will also soon rehabilitate the Tubman Museum in Harper, Cape Palmas, Maryland County, built for President W.V.S.
