Scout For The Next George Weah (Ballon d’Or)!

There will be a three-day tournament here in Liberia. It is Football Against R**e (FAR) scouting tournament. FAR is an annual tournament/ campaign since 2020.

Football is the most populous sport, historic for unifying the entire country during eras of national divisions or crises. It is in this light that Football Club Gar'ou saw fit to rally the sport against the prevalence of r**e throughout the country.

The campaign/ rally was launched by Major General Prince Charles Johnson III, Chief of Staff of the Armed Force of Liberia, and Madam Celia Cuffy-Brown, Managing Director of the National Housing Authority, in 2020.

By the grace of God, it is going to be huge this year; rare footballing talents from all over Liberia will converge from May 20-23. The pre tournament game was held April 11, 2022. It saw some special talents, over 60 lads, in a four-team series.

We are inviting agents, scouts, directors from around the world to have the opportunity to unveil the next Ballon d’Or, George Manneh Weah. At the moment, child prodigy Eric Godpower Marshall has already broken and set new world record for being the youngest player in football history to play in an official tournament, at the age of 11. Godpower has been tipped by pundits globally to be the next George Weah

The Official Page of Liberia’s premier football development enterprise Football Club Gar'ou has this to say: “We are awestruck by the transformation that the LEAD Monrovia Football Academy under the stewardship of Sekou Dgeorges Manubah has ensured within national football. The model of development cultivated at the school is enormously scintillating. Below is a Match Day readiness photograph of female players. At the Academy, Sekou and his team are poised in educating that football is no more a single-gender participatory sport and that a woman can, in her full woman characteristics and personality, compete and attain stardom. This photograph and work being done at the academy deserve the limelight for the purpose of a standard that is worth the emulate nationally as we strive for gender equity within every spectrum of our country.”

This is Brigadier General Prince Charles Johnson, III. He is the Chief of Staff (COS) of the Armed Forces of Liberia. For the first time in recent Liberian history, the Army is a familiar unit of the normal daily of the Liberian society. Prince has given the Army a unique aura, say his simplistic but gentlemanly charisma of being so aware of every challenge the society faces. The Chief of Staff has taken head-on several notable social causes, including a campaign against r**e, when he launched the famous Football Against R**e (FAR) campaign for Football Club Gar'ou. The fight/ awareness against breast cancer is one other notable cause that he has, With the Force of a Rushing Army, taken on. Consistently, he has been seen in the vanguard of Covid-19 awareness. If at all the Armed Forces resembles anything right now, it is a Familiar Force/ Unit of the Liberian society.

Liberia Football-preneur and grassroots football development strategist Alvin Kpalay Clarke has been certified as Intermediary.

The Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Football Club is credited for unearthing and developing notable Liberian talents, including 11 years old Eric Godpower Marshall who has become the youngest professional footballer in history, and Jegbay Morris Konneh, formerly of LPRC Oilers.

“Done and dusted,” the newest FIFA Intermediary began. “Fact is there were many and renowned Intermediaries before me and there shall be countless after me. I wish that is humbly settled. However, by the grace of God, I bring so much value to the sector. I bring innovation and charisma and an unearthly level of passion and determination to reinstate the prestige of Liberian football amongst the comity of footballing nations.

“By the utmost grace of God, I have established consultative and collaborative relations with influential agents and scouts across Europe who can place our lads back in the top five leagues in the world. At the moment, we are not short on the needed contacts to place players. The challenge is developing our youthful talents into top quality players who can compete at the highest level like the Ghanaians, Nigerians, Senegalese and Guineans.

“God willing, in the next two to five years, we should be able to see Liberians in the English Premier League, French League One, Italian Serie A, etc.

“I have already identified some top talents from other clubs. Players who sign with me will be put into a special development regimen according to the guidelines given by my partners. This way, we just don’t send products on the market for the sake of it, but those that the market craves,” Alvin ended by saying.

FOREIGN POLICY MISHAP?: PRES. WEAH THANKS USA, BUT WILL GO WITH EUROPE, LEAVES OUT ISRAEL

Liberian President George M. Weah is said to have had his first foreign policy mishap.

The Liberian leader, during his inaugural speech January 22, 2018, at the Samuel K. Doe Sports Complex, commended the United States of America for its past contributions to the West African State, but moved to say that he will foster a relationship with Europe.

According to a geopolitics expert who spoke to this paper via electronic mail on grounds of anonymity, move by the Liberian leader to foster a relationship with Europe and not further cement Liberia's longstanding bilateral relations with the US is a premature one.

The expert also noted that the Liberian leader, in his policy statement, made known that he will ensure friendship with China.

According to the geopolitical analyst, the President Weah failed to mention Israel.

The expert reminded that a relationship with Israel should never be taken lightly on both economic and political fronts.

The analyst said that President Weah must remember, not too long, in early December 2017, Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu signed an agreement with the United States toincrease energy access in Africa and to reduce the continent’s electricity deficiency through innovative solutions.

The partnership was part of the $7 billion, five-year Power Africa project, started by the Obama administration. It’s aimed at creating 60 million new connections in Africa by 2030.

The expert also said Liberia's relationship with the US has seen a recent low since the election of Mr. Donald Trump as US president. He said White House has well noted jibes from former Liberian President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf.

In late last year, then Liberia’s president, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf ordered a vote against the U.S. and Israel at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) because of her ‘apparent’ disdain for U.S. President Donald J. Trump, Sr. and an alleged ‘inducement’ from a ‘powerful’ Arab state. This is a historic mistake rooted in misjudgment, unsophisticated political and diplomatic skills, and short-sightedness.

President Sirleaf ordered her UN ambassador Lewis Brown, a non-career, and unprepared diplomat, to join forces with other nations in shaming and condemning the Jewish state of Israel and the U.S., two of Liberia’s traditional and historical allies. President Sirleaf’s ill-informed and premature action comes as the United Nations General Assembly overwhelmingly resisted U.S. warnings and voted Thursday to condemn President Donald J. Trump, Sr.’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and move the U.S. Embassy there from Tel Aviv.

According to the expert, it is a policy mishap to pledge to go with Europe, instead of 'refurbishing' with Washington and requesting to sit with Tel Aviv to make amends.

SEN. CHIE FORESEES WHITE BALLOT WIN

Grand Kru County Senator Professor Albert T. Chie foresees a white ballot election win for the President Pro Tempore position.

Speaking to a mass gathering of journalists from across the media landscape of Liberia January 12, 2018, Senator Chie hoped that should his colleagues resolve to do the uncommon thing on choosing him by consensus, he will gladly accept the responsibility.

Meanwhile, Senators H. Varney G. Sherman, Geraldine Doe-Sheriff, and J. Milton Teahjay who were vying for the position of President Pro Tempore of the Liberian Senate have resolved to support Senator Chie, instead.

Current President Pro Tempore of the Liberian Senate Armah Zolu Jallah has as well blessed the candidacy of the Grand Kru County Senator.

According to document believed to be crafted with the consensus of vast majority of Senators, the entire Senate is gearing up to build an assertive and singular-goal Liberian Senate around Senator Chie.

Senator Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence has been initiating countless consultative meetings with her colleagues in the drive to build a firmed and pragmatic leadership that will reflect the will of all Senators.

The Grand Bassa County Senator said she is hopeful of a consensus that will see Chie head the leaderahip that all 30 senators will formulate based upon competence.

Meanwhile, Success Forum remains alert to how the cards will play out in determining whether or not Senator Professor Albert T. Chie will go unopposed for the position of President Pro Tempore of the Liberian Senate or face Senator Stephen J. H. Zargo in a two horse race.

However, a pundit claims that there is no weekend or night in politics. He said that to mean that there is still a window from this day to Monday, January 15, 2015, in lobbying to convince Senator Zargo to support the majority's favorite
