255

A journalist and citizen of Grand Bassa County, William U.B. Lloyd, Jr., has described Grand Bassa politicians as “disloyal braggarts”, whose intention is to betray the people with fake promises.

   During a special meet-up on Sunday with other citizens from Grand Bassa County at Farmington Hotel, Magibi County, Lloyd expressed sadness over the political outlook of the county and recommended future action by the young people.

   According to Lloyd, the political promises during elections can be very encouraging, ones that anyone could fall prey to.

   “Our politicians’ campaign messages can be very promising, [ones] that anyone can fall prey to,” he averred.

   William Lloyd, who was branded by his fellow Bassa citizens as “county loyalist”, suggested that the young people of the county establish a movement that would be a guarantor between politicians and citizens of the county. According to him, the movement will take a holistic approach in ending aspiring opportunists in the county.

   The journalist, however, reminded Bassa citizens that the initiative cannot be realized if they do not galvanize themselves in unity, stating that they are the solution to their problems.

   “We shouldn’t allow anyone to deceive us; we are the solutions to our problems; but we can only solve our problems if we are united,” he stated.

   Lloyd also frowned on the social well-being of citizens of the county. He said it is shameful for a county that receives US$1 million each year from ArcelorMittal as corporate social responsibility fund, along with other domestic revenues, cannot boast of ten (10) international scholarships.

   William Lloyd also cautioned the people of Grand Bassa County to be vigilant in regard to disloyal “braggarts” in the upcoming 2023 general elections as their promises would not be the actual intention for the county.
