Monrovia-April-5-TNR:Liberians are wondering as to what has begun of the Unity Party Government in just three months as there has been series of mistakes and missteps in the Joseph Nyuma Boakaiadministration.
In recent times, the President has nominated and withdrawn nominees on several occasions thus casting a dark cloud over the success of the three month-old government that is yet to meet its 100-days deliverables as promised by President Joseph Boakai.
This has left Liberians to wonder as to what is really going on with President Boakai’s nomination process. There are also reports that some individuals have been nominated without the consent and accruement of the President.
