LCM PRESIDENT SPEAKS ON LIBERIAN TPS ISSUE
The Acting
President of the Liberian Community of Minnesota-St Paul (LCM), Hon. Edward William Carter, Jr. has assured the leadership
of ULAA of 
his Organization’s preparedness to partner with the Union and other Diaspora Liberian Community-based Organizations
to promote the ongoing TPS efforts.
his Organization’s preparedness to partner with the Union and other Diaspora Liberian Community-based Organizations
to promote the ongoing TPS efforts.Speaking
during a telephone conversation recently with ULAA’s Chief Executive officer, Hon. Emmanuel Wettee, Hon. Carter expressed
deep concern over the poor turnout at the recent TPS rally held in Minnesota under the auspices of OLM. He attributed the
situation partly to the failure of OLM officials to include other Liberians-based Organizations and other stakeholders in
the planning and implementation process.
Mr. Carter noted that the success of the TPS struggle is contingent upon the collective efforts and shared
interest of all Liberians and frowned on the attitude of certain individuals, who he said want to politicize and trivialize
the process for selfish political ends. He said that the recent statement of OLM President, Hon Dwanyen, “we will rest
and when you’re ready, please call us.” Is tantamount to argumentum ad metum (using scare tactics to garner support
for his immigration policy), something which shows that he is insensitive to the plight of those disaffected Liberians.
For his part, Hon Wettee,
congratulated Hon Carter for his preferment, and assured him that the Union was willing to work with all Liberians and Liberian-based
community organizations to ensure that the TPS struggle was a resounding success.
