It is with great disappointment that we must inform our residents and the general public that the information provided by a local news media platform, Dtv, is false and misleading.

This particular platform reported that Mayor, Gbarngawoe E. Seyboe had issued permits to business owners to operate on a national holiday proclaimed by President Boakai.

We categorically condemn this disturbing misinformation and assure the public that Mayor Seyboe has not allowed any business to open on a national holiday, especially one as important as this.

The Dtv reporter who went live with this false information is a liar and we
are not deterred by their baseless accusations.

Our main focus remains on keeping our city clean and green, as Mayor Seyboe cannot be distracted by individuals who spread lies.

The Mayor relationship with local leaders and the Executive is balanced and cannot be questioned by anyone. Mayor Seyboe, being a pastor, would never allow businesses to operate on a national holiday of prayer and fasting.

This day is an important one for all citizens to come together and pray for our nation and its people, and it cannot be overlooked or disregarded.

We had hoped that the reporter would have interviewed residents and citizens to get their opinions on the national holiday, rather than making false statements.

We urge them to be more professional in their reporting next time and not spread negative mindsets towards others who have built strong relationships.

Our doors are always open to everyone for accurate and reliable information.
