Perspective:  Isn’t Jeremiah Koung A Part and Parcel of Legislative Inertia and Decadence in postwar Liberia?

By: Samuel P. Jackson, Fellow, London School of Economics

Can a protégé of Prince Y. Johnson be a reformer?

Is he aiming to improve legislative oversight that he had not provided since his umpteen years in the Legislature? Has he ever analyzed the Budget performance report? What’s his record on the Ways and Means Committee?

Firstly, Jorweah did not campaign for reforms in the government. He said hope to change!

So let’s stick to the record and the so-called reformist agenda of Senator Koung.

My opinion is he is attempting to rebrand and reposition himself as a reformer when nothing in his background remotely resembles that. Did he take the annual 30K loot from our tax dollars? Why didn’t he refuse?

We cannot allow a man who was in bed with the CDC administration just 60 days ago to try to pretend the last 5 years never happened. Can Boakai trust him?

He will answer to the voters. No amount of packaging on social media can erase the record. I ain’t buying that bridge in Saclapea! It’s made of wooden sticks!

I’m very impressed with the personal history and successes of our dear Senator but I know wooden nickels and counterfeit dollars. He is a remarkable businessman. No doubt. But he is not the real deal political reform agent. He’s fronting. We from Soniwehn and Brooklyn know a three-card Monte game. It’s a mirage.

And so it goes!!
