The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of a premier micro-finance loan institution, Bukonjadeh Group of Companies, Elton Datee Johns, says his entity and staff are deeply saddened by the horrifying and terrifying untimely incident that occurred on Monday night, November 20, 2023, which resulted into the demise of innocent citizens within the proximity of the Unity Party (UP) headquarters on Broad Street.
Johns, on behalf of his company, told reporters Tuesday that the terrible catastrophe has not only struck the families and relatives of those who have died from the incident, but the entire country, which could be equated to terrorism; as such, it must be categorically condemned by every meaningful Liberians of all walks of life.
The Bukonjadeh CEO in a tearful mood called on all Liberians to unequivocally condemn the inhumane, evil and devilish act that led to the death of the innocent citizens.
He maintained that if there are alleged perpetrators of this callous act, they must be arrested, charged and sent to court for prosecution by the Ministry of Justice.
Johns said the incident has the propensity to drive away investors and discourage embassies accredited to Liberia.
He also congratulated President Dr. George Manneh Weah for mustering a high degree of courage and maturity by conceding defeat in the interest of all Liberians and the country.
As he put it, Liberia is now on a peaceful trajectory after the 2023 election, and at the same time said bravo to the President-elect, Ambassador Joseph Nyumah Boakai, Vice President-elect Jeremiah Koung, and the newly elected members of the 55thNational Legislature.
