Liberia Council Of Churches Urges Gov’t To Build A Big Bicentennial Memorial Project

To Mark The Return Of Freed Slaves In Monrovia

The Liberia Council of Churches is proposing that the Liberian government undertakes the construction of a huge project to memorialize the celebration of the bicentennial anniversary of the return of freed slaves in Monrovia.

Government has set next Monday, February 14, 2022 as the date for the grand launch of the celebrations at the Samuel K. Doe Sports Complex in Paynesville, outside Monrovia.

The Council’s President, Bishop Kortu Brown, who is also the Overseer of the Apostolic Pentecostal Church, said he made the proposal to President George Weah during a meeting with the Christian leaders during a meeting held at the Ministerial Complex recently.
