MONROVIA: Citizens of Districts # 11, 12 and 13 of Montserrado County converged in their thousands on Wednesday, September 13, 2023 and pledged their unflinching support to the Presidential bid of Mr. Alexander Cummings, Standard Bearer of the Collaborating Political Parties (CPP).
Cummings, accompanied by Representative candidates of the three Districts, and Montserrado County Senatorial candidate Victoria Koiquah, toured several communities up to the Stephen Tolbert soccer pitch in Gardnersville, where the official ceremony was held.
It was attended by thousands of partisans, supporters, sympathizers and well-wishers, amidst singing, dancing and chanting of slogans such as, “Cummings is the man we want.”
In separate statements of support and solidarity, citizens expressed confidence in the integrity, competence and qualification of Mr. Cummings as the best and suitable Presidential candidate capable of dealing with the vexing socio-economic challenges and country’s current predicament.
Youth leaders, women and inter-religious groups cautioned Liberians against repeating past mistakes of electing the wrong leaders, and said, “even members of the international community would prefer a Cummings presidency in October.”
The Stephen Tolbert soccer pitch political rally was one of the largest gatherings of CPP supporters in Montserrado County.
In response to the citizens’ pledge of support, Mr. Cummings reiterated his commitment to addressing the serious economic challenges and infrastructural deficits which are making life unbearable and leaving a vast majority of people in abject poverty.
The CPP Standard Bearer promised to resuscitate the country’s ailing economy, create better decent paying jobs, fix the deplorable road conditions, and ensure better health care and educational systems nationwide.
He called for sober reflection on the part of every well-meaning Liberian desirous of change in the country and a better life, to support his Presidential quest.
He noted that within the first one hundred days of a Cummings’ Administration, citizens will begin to experience the impact of change for the better.
