The Imam along with the representative of the Margibi County Muslim Council called on Hon. Attoh-Wreh used her influence in government to ensure that Muslims in the county are represented at the level of the county local government leadership.
Hon. Ellen Attoh-Wreh, climaxing the occasion, says she sees a Muslim community in her District as one people. The lawmaker intoned that though during the elections many find it difficult to continue their support to her because there were other Muslim contestants; she holds nothing against anyone, and now there is a need for everybody to work together for the good of the District.
According to Hon. Attoh-Wreh that fact that the Muslim community has gathered in the manner and fashion as they have, she feels the spirit of one oneness and reconciliatory people wanting the goods of the District.
Hon. Attoh-Wreh further commit to work with everyone, stating that she intends to be a leader, not ruler. She then disclosed that the Government of Liberia in the budget process has considered US$100,000 for the developments in the District.
The lawmaker continues that the development monies when available, citizens themselves will have to meet and decide which project they want to execute. She has called on District residents to begin thinking about impactful projects to do in the District as the government raises the monies in its fiscal budget.
The Marbigi County District #3 lawmaker then presented to the Muslim Community a payment receipt of a lot of land, proposed for the construction of a Muslim Women Clinic in the District.
The presentation of the land to Muslim community brought about a huge appreciation from the residents, thus resulting to Islamic jingles being voiced in a sportive slogan and the show of anxiety to their lawmaker.
