“The message I have is almost the same message I have told other women wherever I have gone. I understand their plights and I have always told them that I will try to do the best I can to bring relief to them. The government is doing creditably well for the rural women and we are going to play our part to alleviate the plights of the women”, Mrs. Weah said.
The First Lady said she could not belief that Bomi County was such a beautiful place and could not believe that Liberia has such wonderful and beautiful places.
