NO AMENDMENT- IMPROVE THE SYSTEM TO PUNISH PERPETRATORS

 Standing Up for Justice in Liberia

As Liberia’s National Orphans Representative, I joined the Children’s Forum, women’s rights institutions, and other child advocacy groups in a peaceful protest calling for a non-bailable rape law and standing firmly against any amendment that would weaken it.

With the alarming prevalence of rape and other forms of violence against women, girls, and children in Liberia, we make our position clear — we do not support the amendment of the rape law.

We recommend:

* Fixing the justice system.

* Ensuring speedy trials.

* Providing full protection for victims.

* Establishing and making productive a fast-track court to adjudicate SGBV matters.

For me, this is more than a protest — it’s a call to protect lives, uphold dignity, and secure justice for Liberia’s most vulnerable.

Cool Winter-ABRAHAM GAYAH

 It was a cool Tuesday afternoon   From both sides, you could see the sun and the moon   Every couple along and I was alone   Am I a stranger?  Or do I look so different? Hands in hands people moving   But here I am my two hands swinging   How I wish for someone,   a helper more than a wife,  a lover more than a friend   I get lost in a world of thousands of people   But none to love and non to share my heart with   Am I a monster?  Or I’m just so insignificant?     I drag along my silent plaque   To a lone girl in the distance path of the park   People know impressions but I had just intentions   My thoughts feel feeble, but I trust that I can   Yes I can- I can make love to another   If even none choose to love me back   My spirit teases me to hunger-   But I am inspired to give in an offer ...

Cover with the blanket of shyness, though a warriorꏀꏀꏀ😍 I hope you see this good Good for your heart to love and for admiration of your soul You’ve opened a Love class  I’m an apprentice  Wish I was a love rocket Exploring your heart and all corridor To find a love food Loving you and promising to play no foul A young lad and an experience lasso My heart for you- no one can entice They say ladies are acting strange And that their mind sometimes not arrange I may not know the finest rhyme Or even write a gorgeous poem         But I want to share my heart My heart with the leftover words The words my mouth couldn’t say off ‘Among thousand to you, my life attract Maybe these words couldn’t express love And if you agree- my love spell solve’ When you write me a text You remind me to add on it My heart splash on every button Grounded to love you at my best The only thing with you so fit I’m promisin...

  “Provide budgetary support to the LNCRF- The biggest children brand institution for Children Rights in Liberia” At about this time, the Liberia Children's Parliament now Children's Forum is still protesting for budgetary support and allocation, something the Ministry of Gender, Children & Social Protection Liberia should be taking leading roles to do. I feel abash to most time allude that Liberia President in #Pres_Weah would love children but his minister's institution that attends to the welfare and need of children are careless and novice to the Liberia Children Law. PROVIDE BUDGETARY ALLOCATION TO THE LNCRF. Here is the Law speaking here "Part 11/ Section 1 1.1 A fund is hereby established to be known as the Child Rights Advancement Fund to be held and managed by the Ministry of Gender and Development, subject to the Revenue Code and any other financial laws and regulations that Government may put in place; The purpose of the fund shall be to provide for ed...
