A physically challenged senior student at the state-owned University of Liberia (UL) and his little daughter risk being thrown out of the room he is currently renting, due to his inability to settle rental fees.
Displaying a warning notice from his landlord, Mr. James Samuel Woods said he has been notified by his landlord to vacate from the room he and his kid are living.
James said because he cannot meet up with the US$15.00 per month or US$180.00 per year, he will very soon be thrown out of the property.
He said that he has made efforts to have the money pay but every efforts have not yearned the needed result. Woods can be reached on +231 776143722 James lobby or seek handout from people to pay his rental fees, pay his child’s school fees and settle other family obligations.
“The only thing anyone in Monrovia will need first is a place to return to after coming from their hustle,” the physically challenged Liberian college student said in a sad mood.
“I cannot walk like others, so moving from one house to the other is a serious problem for me,” he said. When he was asked about the status of his employment with the House of representatives, Mr. James Woods added: I was given the letter from the office of Representative Mariamu Fofama, the Chair on Rules, Orders and Administration that I was going to be in the protocol department.”
According to him, since that time he has not heard anything from them about the House of Representatives. He was quick to say, “maybe they are settling some things.”
In a conversation with Representative Mariamu Fafana recently, the Lofa Lawmaker said that she saw the need to employ the young physically challenged Liberian who is devoted to his education.
During the conversation with the female lawmaker, she said: “We are doing some clearing of the House of Representatives payroll and as soon as it is done, that fellow’s case will be settled.”
But the fear is that before that materializes, the physically challenged student’s landlord will have carried out the eviction threat.
James Woods during the interview said that he will hopefully be graduating in December from the UL.
“After my graduation, I will try to enter the law school because I want to help my brothers and sisters who are physician challenged like me” Woods encouraged himself. Report by Mark N. Mengonfia – mmenginfia@gmail.com
