MR EDWIN TISDELL RAISES NATIONAL CONCERN
National concerns: Yesterday, what I witnessed after placing several calls to the Liberia National Fire Service and they never showed up has drawn my attention. The Roberts International Airport/Duazon/Schiefflin stretch needs critical attention regarding passengers and vehicles safety. It is scaring to witness two cars ablaze for over an hour just a stone throw away from the EBK Barracks that houses our troops and yet no fire truck could arrest the situation. It is honestly abnormal that with the proximity of the incident to the EBK Military barracks, there was not a fire truck available to assuage the situation. Not even a fire truck from our only international Airport could come by! What are the authorities of the AFL, 14 Military Hospital and RIA doing regarding getting fire trucks for road emergencies? This isn’t directed to just this government but even previous ones and it’s my prayer that this government see reason to address this.
