Remove Billboards

In continued fury by House members over the snail pace of Buchanan Renewable Energy in fulfilling its plans to electrify certain parts of Liberia as agreed, House members are pushing for the removal of all its billboards installed in the country.
When it began operation here in 2009, the company installed many billboards at major intersections indicating to instantly electrify Liberia through the use of ‘rubber wood chips.’
But at Plenary Tuesday, Rep. Jeh Baron Brown said the company has failed to deliver its “electrification promise” and reserving seven managerial positions for only Liberians.
He, therefore, called for the removal of their billboards everywhere in the country.
“If you look around here in Monrovia, you will find billboards indicating that BRE was about to electrify this country.  In my mind, those billboards should firstly be removed because they embarrass us Liberians against partners wanting to do business by electrifying this country,” Rep. Brown told plenary.
He also accused BRE of failure to deliver on its corporate social responsibilities to the people of Grand Bassa County including addressing some of their basic needs.
Other lawmakers supported the move while Rep. Adolp Lawrence urged his colleagues “not to treat the matter with leniency”.
However, the House members resolved to table the matter for one month pending completion of a review of BRE’s activities by the Executive committee established by President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf.
