Women Work Harder. And Women Are More

In Liberia, Our Salary Scales Are So Low That Our Judicial System Has Become Corrupt Over The Years. Now, We Need To Do Some Things Ourselves.

Of Course, I Am The First Democratically Elected Woman President In Africa, And That Raises A Lot Of Expectations. Because I Represent The Aspirations Of Women All Over Africa, I Must Succeed For Them. I Must Keep The Door Open For Women's Participation In Politics At The Highest Level. That Is Both Humbling And Exciting.

To Girls And Women Everywhere, I Issue A Simple Invitation. My Sisters, My Daughters, My Friends; Find Your Voice

In Liberia, Our Main Obstacle Is Infrastructure: The Lights, The Water, The Roads. Companies Can't Operate Without Those Things. And Even Though We Have Commitments From Our Partners, It Takes Time To Turn Commitments Into Cash.

Leadership Is Never Given On A Silver Platter, One Has To Earn It.
