In an acquaintance meeting with the Delegation at his Capitol Building Office in Monrovia, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dr. Bhofal Chambers, says the need to redirect extended capacity assistance to the Liberian Legislature cannot be over emphasized, asserting that today’s challenges of any country in the world begin with and end with the economy.
Also in making remarks during the acquaintance meeting, the Resident Director of the National Democratic Institute, Mr. Artan Alijaj, divulged that the Delegation is in the Country in continuation of the standing partnership between and with the Liberian Legislature and the United States Congress under the House Democracy Partnership Program which the NDI is implementing.
Mr. Alijaj told the gathering that the United States Congress Staffs, who formed the Delegation, will hold technical working meetings with some staffs from the Liberian Legislature, specifically the Deputy Speaker, Chairpersons and members of Political Party Caucuses, the Chief Clerk, and other essential staff members of the House of Representatives.
