The event that is presumed to be a very colorful one following the end of the just ended November 14, 2023 run-off election which saw the former ruling Unity Party of former Vice president Boakai emerged victorious.

The expected early arrival of the seasoned Nigerian economist and former minister of Agriculture and rural development ahead of Monday’s program, signals a boost to the crawling economy of Liberia with economic experts saying; his presence in country during this period will yield a significant results. This will also see the newly elected Unity Party government that is soon to be inaugurated, building a strong partnership with the president African Development Bank , who has a very strong knowledge on agriculture and economics as a means of enabling the country’s economy grow rapidly through agriculture.      

United States President Joe Biden has also designated Madam Linda Thomas Greenfield to represent him at the occasion and make statement on behalf of the US government.

The most expected inauguration will take place at the rotunda of the capitol building in Monrovia with several World leaders already arriving ahead of the program.

Liberia situated on the west coast and the oldest West African state (176-years) is among the poorest states on the sub-region and the World according to World ranking.
The country’s joint security has announced protocols for moving vehicles, motor and tricycles along the International highway in order to create free traveling space for foreign guests.

Unlike the outgoing Coalition for democratic change headed by a football leader who maneuver his way to the Presidency relaying on the massive support and love at the time by citizens, the UP has drafted  platform that has attracted many Liberians.
This includes: Agriculture, Roads, Education, Sanitation and Tourism (AREST).

However, the election of Boakai and Koung to stair the affairs of the state, has attracted several Local and International partners and companies wanting to do business over with the west African nation.

Citizens have over the decades yeaned for a responsible government that will present the good image of the country but unfortunately, things has gone from bad to worst (One government to another). Meanwhile, the coming of the Boakai-Koung administration is marked with huge expectations, with citizens trusting that the UP leadership will transform the lives of the ordinary people especially with the slogan`` The Rescue Mission”.
  
Ambassador Joseph Nyumah Boakai comes with over forty years of governing experience with passion for Agriculture.
