The National Civil Society Union of Liberia (NACSUL) has commended the Director General of the National Social Security Corporation (NASCORP), Dewitt Von-Ballmoos, for the construction and subsequent dedication of a modern regional hub in western Liberia.
It can be recalled that the regional hub, which is valued at a little over US$400,000 (four hundred thousand United States dollars), started three years ago when the government of President George Manneh Weah came to power, in 2018, and was on Tuesday, March 23, 2021 dedicated by His Excellency, President George Manneh Weah, during the second leg of his citizens engagement tour in Tubmanburg, Bomi County.
According to the President of the National Civil Society Union of Liberia (NACSUL), Amos B.S. Kanneh, with the innovation and creativity exhibited by Director General Von-Ballmoos the numerous challenges being faced by citizens of Bomi, Grand Cape Mount and Gbarpolu counties to travel to Monrovia for their pension benefits have been resolved, as they will conduct their respective transactions in their region.
Kanneh described the move by Director-General Von-Ballmoos constructing such a modern facility in Bomi County as a way of taking social security to the ordinary people, urging the management team at NASSCORP, headed by its innovative and far-sighted Director General, to extend such a brilliant initiative to other regions, including the southeast, where citizens find it difficult to commute to Monrovia for transaction, especially during the rainy season.
The newly dedicated regional hub consists of residences, offices, commercial banking institutions, etc., that will provide a variety of services to the citizens in that part of the country.
The commendation by the NACSUL leader follows the institution’s regular assessment and fact-finding visit to the Western Cluster, which comprises of Bomi, Gand Cape Mount and Gbarpolu counties.
NACSUL is, at the same time, extolling the Director General of the National Social Security Corporation (NASSCORP) for such a brilliant initiative, and challenged other officials of the government to emulate the exemplary role of the NASSCORP boss to positively impact the livelihood of the ordinary citizens, as they see public service as a call to service and not to amass wealth at the detriment of the masses.
Meanwhile the National Civil Society Union of Liberia (NACSUL) has reaffirmed its commitment to working with the management team at NASSCORP, headed by its Director General Dewitt Von-Ballmoos, to move President George Manneh Weah’s “Pro-poor Agenda for Prosperity and Development (PAPD)” forward.
