-Dedicates internal road and modernization project at the NPA
President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has said that development in every country requires time and cannot happen overnight, as she dedicated the internal road and modernization project at the National Port Authority (NPA).
The project includes the construction of rigid pavements, drainages, sidewalks, streetlights (some as high as 60 meters) as well as parking lots outside the concession area of the Dutch company, APM Terminals, which has a 25-year concession agreement with the National Port Authority (NPA) to manage the Freeport of Monrovia.
President Sirleaf, who spoke at the dedication ceremony on Friday, told citizens that development takes a long time, commitment and dedication, “and takes hard work. It doesnât happen in any other way.”
