Monrovia — The shipment, widely circulated on social media, includes numerous yellow machines and trucks typically used in large-scale construction and infrastructure projects. Some officials of the Boakai-Koung administration have hinted that the equipment is intended for government operations.
A video showcasing earthmoving machines adorned with President Joseph Boakai's photos and the Liberian flag, captioned"Handover ceremony - Presidential infrastructure program - President Joseph Boakai," features Minister Bility, Sylvester Grisby, Minister of State for Presidential Affairs and Roland Lafayette Giddings, Minister Public Works, praising the deal agreed with SANY Global, a Chinese-based heavy machinery manufacturing company, and the Guma Group based in South Africa.
However, despite the lack of official information, some officials of the Unity Party have taken to social media to applaud President Boakai for ensuring the equipment was brought into the country. Liberia Telecommunications Authority Commissioner Patrick Honnah wrote about a forthcoming event called"All Yellow Day," suggesting a celebration across all 15 counties of Liberia, each expected to receive 19 of the yellow machines over the next five months.
Boima J.V. Boima, a staunch critic of President Boakai, emphasized the importance of appreciating fulfilled promises, such as the acquisition of road grading machines and the disclosure of asset declarations. He stressed the need for accountability and the responsibility of leaders to work for the betterment of the people, aiming for a better Liberia where citizens can move freely and enjoy improved governance.
