MFDP to Commence FY2027 Executive Budget Hearings Thursday

Monrovia— The Ministry of Finance and Development Planning (MFDP) will officially begin the Executive Budget Hearings for Fiscal Year 2027 on Thursday, October 1, 2026, marking another critical phase in the Government of Liberia’s national budget formulation process.

The hearings, coordinated through the National Budget Committee (NBC), will allow spending entities to present and justify their proposed programs, priorities, expenditure requirements, and planned activities for Fiscal Year 2027.

The process is in line with the statutory mandate requiring the MFDP to consult with spending entities on their programs, commitments, and budgetary priorities before the preparation and submission of the National Budget.

The opening session on Thursday will focus on the Ministry of Mines and Energy, the Special Presidential Project Coordinating Committee (SPPCC), and the Public Procurement and Concessions Commission (PPCC), bringing together key institutions responsible for managing Liberia’s mineral and energy resources, coordinating priority presidential development projects, and overseeing public procurement and concessions.

During the hearings, participating institutions are expected to outline their proposed programs and activities, provide justification for their budgetary requests, and respond to questions concerning their priorities, implementation plans, and resource requirements.

The Executive Budget Hearings are scheduled to run through Friday, October 9, 2026, and will cover a broad range of sectors and spending entities across government.

Former Chairman & CEO of the National WASH Commission, Ambassador Bobby Whitefield, writes: ✍️ 👇

"Averaging one win in every four games over a 46-year period, Liberia's overall record stands at a 28% win rate from 246 games (W69, D52, L125). The statistics underscore the Lone Star's status as a second-tier African side. Attached is an era-by-era breakdown from 1980–2026.

Given the above record, is our expectation of the Lone Star too high? High expectation of the Lone Star is not the problem. In fact, it's necessary. Every great team needs it. Expectation sets a standard. It tells players "we are not here to just participate". It unites fans. It gives a whole country one heartbeat. It attracts pressure and pressure is what forces growth.

The problem is expectation without investment is a wild goose chase and that's exactly where we are with the Lone Star. You can't expect World Cup qualification with:

- No intentional and consistent local league development
- Players meeting 3 days before a crucial match
- Poor facilities, poor bonuses, poor planning
- Favoritism and connections influencing players selection
- Politicizing the Lone Star
- Changing coaches every year
- And then expecting the boys to beat teams that have been in camp for 2 months with sports science, data analysts, and proper friendly matches.

That's not expectation. That's fantasy.

We expect the Lone Star to beat Morocco, Cameroon, South Africa, countries that invested $20M+ in youth football in the last 5 years, while we are still struggling to pay for training pitch.

The fans do their part, we fill the stadium, we argue on Facebook, we pray. But football is not won by prayer alone. It's won on the training ground.

The truth is: Lone Star doesn't lack talent. Liberia has talent everywhere, from West Point to Kakata to Lofa. What it lacks is a system that matches the size of our expectations.

If we want high results, we need high investment:

- High investment in grassroots
- High investment in local coaches
- High investment in keeping our best players disciplined and fit
- High investment in long-term planning, not just "win next game"

Otherwise, every qualifier we will do the same cycle: High hope. Poor preparation. Painful loss. Blame the players. Repeat.

Expectation is good. But expectation without work is just disappointment waiting to happen.

But on Tuesday, 29 September 2026, none of that matters for 90 minutes.

This is our country. This is our flag. This is our Lone Star.

I am calling on every Liberian, from Monrovia to Maryland, from Nimba to Cape Mount, no party, no tribe, no beef, put it all aside and FILL THE SKD.

Let the boys see red, white and blue from wall to wall. Let Mali hear us before they see us. Let the world know that even when we argue among ourselves, when Lone Star calls, Liberia answers as ONE.

Come in your jersey. Come with your flag. Come with your voice. Tuesday is not about politics, it's about pride.

Tuesday. All of us. For Liberia."

Dr. James A.S. Momoh Calls for Renewed Unity, Supports Second Term for President Boakai.

Monrovia, Liberia — September 25, 2026: Former Superintendent of the Monrovia Consolidated School System (MCSS), Dr. James A.S. Momoh, has renewed his call for national unity and expressed support for President Joseph Nyumah Boakai and the Unity Party continuing in national leadership for a second term.

In a statement advocating what he describes as “A Renewed Call for Unity,” Dr. Momoh argues that continued leadership under President Boakai would provide an opportunity to advance national development, strengthen public trust, and pursue greater unity among Liberians.

According to Dr. Momoh, rebuilding public confidence should remain central to Liberia’s national development agenda. He says government must continue listening to citizens and addressing priorities including quality education, accessible healthcare, economic opportunities, security, transparency, and accountability.
Dr. Momoh further calls for broader participation in the national development process, using a football analogy to describe experienced Unity Party supporters and other stakeholders as “the remaining midfielders” who can contribute their skills, energy, and experience toward achieving Liberia’s development objectives.

“Their collective expertise and commitment will strengthen the Unity Party’s team and ensure that no one is left behind on the journey to progress,” Dr. Momoh stated.
He also characterizes President Boakai’s leadership approach as one centered on humility, listening and addressing the needs of citizens. Dr. Momoh argues that continued attention to public priorities can help promote a culture of service and accountability.

The former MCSS superintendent says Liberia is entering an important period and maintains that national unity and collective participation are necessary to address the country's challenges.

Dr. Momoh's statement ultimately calls on Liberians to support what he describes as a continued journey toward unity, trust, development and prosperity under President Boakai and the Unity Party.
