ON LOYALTY AND SERVICE TO THE NATION

Let me begin by asking the questions: “What is loyalty, to whom and from whom? What is service, to whom and by whom?”

It is a wholehearted commitment to someone or something. The loyalty about which I write is to the nation of Liberia, its government and leaders. This loyalty is required from every citizen of the nation from cradle to the grave.
