SUP Declares Monday a Day of Action, Calls on President Boakai to Defend Democracy.

April 26, 2p25

Monrovia, Liberia – The Vanguard Student Unification Party (SUP) has issued a bold statement to President Joseph Nyuma Boakai and his administration, declaring Monday a day of nationwide student action in defense of democracy and civil liberties.

In a strongly worded release, the SUP announced plans to stage a protest aimed at confronting what it describes as growing threats to democratic processes and student rights in Liberia. The student movement is demanding greater accountability, transparency in governance, and respect for the rights of all citizens—especially young people and students.

"Our democracy is under threat, and we cannot remain silent while the foundations of justice and freedom are being shaken," the statement reads. "Monday will mark a crucial moment in the struggle to reclaim the democratic space."

The SUP also directed sharp criticism at Mr. Sekou Konneh, the current Dean of Student Affairs at the University of Liberia. The party accused Mr. Konneh of failing to adequately address student concerns and of grossly mismanaging student affairs. They went as far as declaring him "wanted" by the student body, urging his immediate response to the numerous issues facing students.

"We can no longer tolerate the silence and negligence from those charged with protecting student welfare," the release stated. "Dean Konneh must act now to restore trust in the administration."

As tensions rise, all eyes will be on Monday's action, which SUP says will be peaceful but resolute in its demands for change.

Liberia’s Education Minister, Dr. Jarso Maley Jallah, Featured as Distinguished Panelist at Harvard University’s 2025 African Development Conference

Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA | April 12, 2025

The Ministry of Education of the Republic of Liberia is pleased to announce the esteemed participation of its Minister, Dr. Jarso Maley Jallah, as a distinguished panelist at the 2025 African Development Conference (ADC), held on Saturday, April 12, 2025, at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.

Organized annually by African students from Harvard Law School and the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, the ADC stands as a premier global platform that convenes renowned policymakers, academics, and advocates to engage in critical discourse on Africa’s progress and prospects.

This year’s conference, themed “Africa by 2040: The Future of Africa’s Youth,” centered on youth empowerment, inclusion, and transformative leadership for sustainable development.

Minister Jallah served on a high-level panel moderated by Dr. Nadi Albino, Deputy Director and Global Lead on Partnership at UNICEF.

The session explored “The Role of Effective Governance, Legal Reforms, and International Collaboration in Empowering Youth—With Emphasis on Gender Equality and Combating Gender-Based Violence.” In her compelling presentation, Minister Jallah outlined three transformative pillars crucial for empowering Africa’s youth:

Legal Reforms – She emphasized the need for inclusive, youth-driven legislation that ensures access to quality education, robust vocational training programs, and legal protections for vulnerable populations, particularly adolescent girls.

Political Inclusion – Dr. Jallah called for institutional reforms to increase youth representation in governance. She advocated for lowering the age of political candidacy, implementing youth quotas, strengthening civic education, and protecting young people from political manipulation—highlighting Nigeria’s “Not Too Young to Run” Act as a replicable model.

International Collaboration – The Minister urged global stakeholders to expand partnerships by increasing funding for youth-led innovations, creating more scholarship opportunities, engaging the African diaspora, and ratifying international frameworks that safeguard youth rights.

In conclusion, Minister Jallah declared:
“Empowering Africa’s youth is not optional—it is essential. The journey to 2040 demands courage, innovation, and solidarity to build inclusive systems where all young people can thrive.”

The Ministry of Education applauds Dr. Jarso Maley Jallah for her exceptional representation of the Republic of Liberia on the international stage. Her participation underscores Liberia’s deep commitment to inclusive education, youth empowerment, and sustainable national development through global partnerships and strategic reforms.

A Response to Regime puppet and a bag to LPRC boss Amos Tweh, a so-called SG of LINSU in Darius S Toweh Jr.

Let’s get one thing straight: Attacking a woman who has dedicated her life to rebuilding Liberia’s broken educational system is not activism—it’s opportunism. It is easy to throw around dramatic threats of resignation and shout into the void. It is harder—far harder—to roll up your sleeves and do the real work, which is exactly what Dr. Jarso Marley Jallah has been doing since day one.

To the Secretary General of LINSU: If your idea of leadership is to scream scandal without facts, then maybe your resignation is overdue—not over a school’s condition, but because of your blatant disregard for the truth. A man like you who works at LINSU and LPRC at the same time, you don't have what it takes to speak integrity issue. It is a violation of the LINSU Constitution and Act that guide the institution.

Let’s address your “challenge” with facts:

1. The Nationwide Tour DID happen. Dr. Jallah and her team visited all 15 counties in 2024. The lack of visibility on your end does not equate to nonexistence. Reports were submitted to the Executive, development partners, and key education stakeholders. If you missed it, that’s on you—not her.

2. One school’s condition doesn’t define an entire system. Are there schools in deplorable states? Absolutely. Should that be the case? No. But are they being addressed? Yes. Systemic decay that took decades to rot cannot be undone in one budget cycle.

3. Money Misused? Where is your evidence? Liberia is a country governed by laws and institutions. The Ministry’s budget is scrutinized by the Legislature and international development partners. Throwing corruption accusations without documentation is not “student leadership,” it’s character assassination.

4. UNESCO Speech: Dr. Jallah didn’t lie—she inspired. She told the world that Liberia is committed to transforming education, and that’s the truth. That’s why she’s pushing curriculum reform, teacher training, and digitization in classrooms. Your outrage doesn’t erase the ongoing work.

5. Fix It or Leave? Here’s the real challenge: Join the work or get out of the way. The Ministry is open to collaboration with LINSU and all student groups—but not with loudmouths whose only contribution is keyboard fury and public tantrums.

You want to be radical? Be radical with integrity. Be radical with solutions. Be radical with facts.

Dr. Jarso Marley Jallah will not be distracted by political noise disguised as advocacy. She will keep moving. She will keep building. And she will keep fighting—for every child in Liberia, including those in River Gee County.

You can shout. You can resign. But you will not rewrite the truth.

A CALL FOR CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM, NOT CHARACTER ASSASSINATION: A Response to a Charlatan in LINSU Secretary General Darius S Toweh Jr., a bag boy to Amos Tweh.

While it is undeniably true that Liberia’s education sector faces immense challenges—particularly in rural areas—it is equally important that we approach these issues with objectivity, fairness, and a genuine desire to see progress, not just to cast blame.

Dr. Jarso Jallah, the current Minister of Education, assumed office during a period of deep-rooted systemic failures that predate her appointment. These challenges—lack of infrastructure, untrained teachers, and limited resources—did not begin with her and will not be solved overnight. Singling her out and branding her "unfit" based on unverified assumptions and emotional outbursts not only undermines the complexity of the problem, but it also derails efforts to build collaborative solutions.

The claim that an $80,000 car purchase negates her ability to deliver results lacks nuance. Cabinet officials are entitled to logistical support, which includes vehicles necessary for nationwide tours and oversight. Is it extravagant? Perhaps. But without full transparency into government procurement policies, it's speculative and disingenuous to use this as a litmus test for her performance.

Regarding the nationwide tour, it’s fair to demand accountability and reporting. However, rather than labeling the entire effort a “scam,” why not seek clarity and engage through formal channels to request documentation or public briefings? Accusations without evidence only fuel division and mistrust.

It’s worth noting that systemic reform requires time, political will, and collaboration across ministries, partners, and communities. No one minister can overhaul an education system without full support from both the government and the citizenry. Instead of inciting outrage, student leaders and civil society groups should work with the Ministry to push for reforms, monitor implementation, and co-create solutions.

Liberia’s education sector does need urgent attention—but let us not reduce complex governance to simplistic attacks. Accountability is essential, yes—but so is respect, truth, and a constructive path forward.

We should critique our leaders, absolutely—but let us do so responsibly, with facts, not fury. Let’s demand reform, not revenge. And above all, let’s work together to make education a true national priority—beyond the politics, beyond the noise.
