Let's Forget Politics and Get Liberia Moving

Ghana's Parliament Speaker Alban Bagbin told Liberia's lawmakers to stop fighting and start working together. He talked to the House of Representatives in Monrovia last Thursday about finding ways to agree. He said political battles should not stop the country from moving forward. He asked them to heal old hurts and find a middle ground when they disagree.

Speaker Bagbin said every democracy has arguments, but leaders must rise above party fights to serve regular people. He reminded the lawmakers their main job is to help everyday Liberians. He stressed that running a country means putting citizens ahead of politics. He pointed out how tempting it becomes to only listen to people who share your views.

The Speaker from Ghana mentioned Abraham Lincoln's words about houses that cannot stand when divided. He pushed the Liberian lawmakers to talk more and argue less. He urged them to build their nation by caring what all citizens think. He wanted them to address everyone's problems and help all Liberians do better.

Bagbin discussed Liberia's struggles with roads, health care, and money. He said fixing these issues requires everyone's cooperation. Many lawmakers clapped after his speech, and some promised to work across party lines. As Liberia plans its laws for 2025, Bagbin's message reminds us that unity makes democracy stronger. His push for working together will shape how politicians deal with each other in the months ahead.
