President Tolbert laid out workable plans aimed at catapulting the Liberian nation at a height to eradicate ignorance, poverty and disease. Housing, healthcare, agriculture and education were some of the paramount societal interventions that boosted under President Tolbert’s. The most interesting question that comes to my mind is, how could President Tolbert get all of these things (and many more) right within about nine years and nobody seems to have a clue within forty years? I believe if the country had followed the guidance of President Tolbert citizens wouldn’t be faced with this level of confusion and identity crisis. Leaders, just like family have the responsibility to lay out clear and workable plan(s) aimed at lifting their citizens out of poverty.
