By: Abdulaye Dukuly
22 June, 2011

I know the author of that particular script to be a man who has over the years being a Mandingo announcer within and out of Liberia.

A constitutional amendment in any given situation is by the will of the people driven by a quest for change to alter, modify, rephrase, or add to or subtract from (a motion, bill, constitution, etc.) by formal procedure.

No child dared acting up in front of elders in any gathering. All the elders held enough authority that they could discipline the child without having to face the wrath of the parents as is the case today, that is what is call in local language “ Blah-koro” meaning everyone discipline him.
