BUCHANAN- It was a sad moment at the Liberian Government Hospital in Buchanan after 6-year-old Susan Tiah was pronounced dead after she was involved in a tragic fire outbreak in Buchanan.

Little Susan Tiah, who comes from an unprivileged family, got severely injured in a fire outbreak on Monday, April 22, leaving her entire body burned.

Susan was rushed to the Liberia Government Hospital for treatment. However, the necessary medications were unavailable until the Board of Ablee-Jay Media responded to an SOS call by providing USD 200 for the medication and transferring the child to the JFK Hospital in Monrovia.

Medications prescribed by the hospital were purchased to treat the kid, but the doctors found it very difficult to find the vein of little Susan due to the severe burn on the body and lack of the adequate machines needed at the point to detect the vein.

Anthony Johnson, another bystander, told reporters that there’s no need for the citizens to vote for representatives and Senators, claiming that they’re not leaders who have refused to work together to push one agenda in the interest of the Liberian people.

“It saddens my heart to see an old hospital catering to thousands of patients daily struggling to operate due to low budgetary allotment.”

He furthered, “It’s a shame on the leaders of Grand Bassa who have served for over nine years without transforming this hospital but pretend to be good during elections. We know the child’s condition was critical, but the struggle to get medication and the lack of sophisticated machines at the hospital hampered the kid too”.

The crying parents were captured walking out frustrated and crying in the name of their leaders to ensure that the hospital was fully supported.

Dixon stressed “one comment made by a reader of the article is: “If that child belonged to an official in this government, he or she would be flown out of Liberia for better health while we who elected them can be going through those difficulties.”

He warned those hailing leaders that are doing the wrong things to stop.

“Please, the sycophants who are always paid to write positive things about our failed leaders please do not sell your integrity for a few hundred dollars and sacrifice the future of our young people. I visited Bassa in March last year. I was deeply disappointed by how dirty, bushy, and undeveloped it was. In my opinion, the county leaders have committed economic crimes against the citizens of our beloved county”.

“Just as we have the right to applaud them, we have the right to boo them, and that is all they deserve.

The people of Bassa deserve better, and we will demand better for our citizens. I call upon all groups, UNIBOA, Bassa High Alumina Association, the Youth Group of Bassa, the Women Group, the Bishops, Clergy, and the churches in and out of Bassa, connected to Bassa, to join the fight to free our suffering masses of Grand Bassa from poverty.  It is the people’s right to benefit from all these concessions in the county, not just the leaders’.
