The bill has now been forwarded to the Liberian Senate for concurrence.

Nimba County District #1 Representative Samuel N. Brown Sr. Calls on Plenary to Prioritize Infrastructure, Healthcare, and Security Welfare in 2026 National Budget

The Representative of Nimba County District #1, Hon. Samuel N. Brown Sr., has written the Plenary of the House of Representatives outlining three critical national priorities he believes must be considered as lawmakers debate the 2026 National Budget, which has now surpassed US$1.2 billion.

In his communication addressed to House Speaker and Members of Plenary, Representative Brown conveyed warm greetings on behalf of the people of District One Nimba County and called for strategic budgetary actions that would “intentionally and monumentally” impact citizens across Liberia.

Paving County Capitals and Growing Cities

Rep. Brown’s first recommendation focuses on infrastructure. He noted that most county capitals remain unpaved and extremely dusty, creating challenges for residents and hindering economic activities. He also cited fast-growing, economically active cities such as Ganta, which face similar conditions.

He urged Plenary to ensure that the 2026 budget includes substantial allocations for the pavement of all county capitals and key emerging commercial cities. He emphasized that such development would boost trade, enhance local revenue generation, create jobs for young people, and empower Liberian-owned construction companies.

Rep. Brown added that prioritizing road and street pavement would also demonstrate the government’s commitment to decentralization and the full implementation of the Local Government Act.

Equipping the Health Sector to Reduce Overseas Treatment

The Nimba lawmaker’s second appeal centered on healthcare. He informed Plenary that many Liberians, especially those at lower income levels, lack access to specialized medical services and are often compelled to seek expensive treatment abroad.

Rep. Brown called for the purchase of advanced medical machines and the introduction of specialist services within Liberia. He recommended bringing in foreign medical experts temporarily while Liberian doctors undergo advanced training to eventually take over.

He stressed that improving local medical capacity would save lives, reduce medical travel, and restore confidence in the national health system—including among government officials.

Salary Increment for Paramilitary Personnel

The third recommendation urged Plenary to ensure the implementation of the salary increment recently announced by the Minister of Finance and Development Planning for Liberia’s paramilitary forces, including the Liberia National Police, Drug Enforcement Agency, National Fire Service, and Immigration Service.

Rep. Brown lamented that despite the announcement, officers continue to endure low salaries, even as many face threats, risks, and in some cases, fatal attacks while serving the nation.

He called on Plenary to enforce the Finance Minister’s pronouncement, arguing that fulfilling the promise would boost morale and inspire renewed dedication among the country’s security personnel.

Hon. Samuel N. Brown Sr. expressed confidence that his colleagues would consider these priorities as they deliberate on the national budget. He stressed that if the 2026 US$1.2 billion budget is to meaningfully resonate with the Liberian people, it must deliver tangible development and relief.

Amos Yini Declares Loyalty to Unity Party, Citing Legacy, Integrity, and a Renewed Mission for National Stability

In a politically charged declaration that is already sending ripples across Nimba County and beyond, Mr. Amos Yini—one of Nimba’s most eminent and influential sons—has officially announced his transition to the Unity Party, marking November 29, 2025 as a defining moment in his political journey.

Mr. Yini, who has navigated the shifting tides of Liberia’s political landscape through affiliations with the NPP, NUDP, MDR, and FOJ, described his move as a “testament to resilience” and an uncompromising commitment to transformative leadership. His political evolution, he said, has armed him with a deeper understanding of the nation’s needs and the urgent demand for accountability, integrity, and genuine representation.

Speaking with striking conviction, Yini emphasized that his decision is rooted not in personal ambition but in a lifelong dedication to serving his people. “My journey has shown me what truly matters—standing for my community and fighting for those who have been overlooked,” he asserted.

Yini’s entry into the Unity Party comes with a powerful emotional undertone, reflecting decades-long ties to President Joseph Nyuma Boakai. He recounted the bond shared between President Boakai and his late father, a relationship grounded in mutual respect dating back to their school days. Yini noted that even after his father’s passing, President Boakai stood with the family—personally attending the removal of his father’s body at the AB Anderson Funeral Home in Monrovia. This connection, he said, strengthens his resolve and deepens his sense of purpose within the Unity Party.

As he steps into this new political chapter, Yini highlighted security as a key focus area. He pledged to contribute meaningfully to sustaining Liberia’s fragile peace, aligning closely with the Unity Party’s governance philosophy and national agenda.

“Long live the evergreen revolution,” he declared boldly, signaling readiness to inject energy, experience, and a renewed patriotic spirit into the party’s mission.

The Unity Party has yet another powerful voice and influential figure joining its ranks—one whose history, vision, and grassroots influence could significantly shift political dynamics in Nimba County ahead of future national decision-making moments.
