So now the police is carrying out a night uh time operation and this operation is geared towards uh noise pollution and other violations uh at night. Especially uh people who leave their homes bring Coke pot in the street at night to sell. So make sure that uh there's no cop in the city. Anybody having pot in the street tonight?

And then there will be the same people saying the city is dead, the street's dead. Look at that. Look at that. And now they are running. Look at the amount of dirt they got on the streets. Look at the dirt they got on the street.

[00:07:23]So, one of Miguel is leading this operation.

[00:08:52]And that's what they do all the time only to come back and say the city is dirty. So this is no So now we are walking towards the snapper hill but uh precisely Nipple Street. This is what the city of Monrovia uh this is what it is tonight.

[00:09:25]So Monro City Corporation uh under Mayor John Sha Shafa is doing the extraordinary and I know some people see it as the first time but this is no joke.

[00:11:08]So So look at the city now at night. Look at what they do. Look at what they do. How the keep city. But at the end of the day, they'll be the same people who get on Facebook and say this. Now, who's making the T?

[00:11:27]It's a question you should be asking.

[00:11:39]And let me read some of the the comments. And I see some people applauding the work of the Monroe City Police. and uh Marova city government.

[00:11:57]The people who lives in the street at night, they make all the dirt and they leave it right there.

[00:12:05]And some people are saying it's a good thing.

[00:12:10]What kind of Monroville you want? You want a Monroville where anybody can just grab Coke pot and move in the street and do anything anyhow.

[00:12:22]only because you want to say yes. So, Five night He said in the street in the street put in the car. All the chair put in the car.

[00:13:24]>> This is happening.

[00:13:28]This is happening right on Nuple Street where uh this is happening right here.

[00:13:36]Washington chair the chair I'm saying the chair.

[00:13:45]Leave your chair.

[00:13:59]Hello.

[00:14:22]Please take this thing from here. I'm going to give up.

[00:14:28]So uh he's not taking the food. He said you can take your food but the materials that you brought in will be seized. So next time you'll make another table to seize it. And uh This is happening now. We are on Newport Street.

[00:15:00]>> Late night sellers washing dishes in the streets.

[00:15:04]And uh washing dishes in the streets. Look at the water.

[00:15:30]and >> what I don't what I don't get is how could people you're watching seeing these things yet and still they are saying that this is at how could you say this is bad? What kind of moral we want?

[00:15:51]Do we want to continuously um continuously be doing the wrong things all the time and letting it slide because we say the people the people the people >> you go to other countries you don't see other African countries you don't see them.

[00:16:16]But yet still our people won't stop.

[00:16:35]Bring a knife on the table. You bring a big surf.

[00:17:03]They say you can cook your food at home.

[00:17:05]You come with a table and your umbrella and do a nice box, something presentable and sell, but you cannot bring cook pot in the street. I think that's a that's a fair warning. Cook the food at home, put it in good buckets and everything. Come on the roll with your table and sell.

[00:17:28]But bringing cook pots, dishes water, everything in the streets and doing it as if to say you are doing it in your home. This is unacceptable.

[00:17:54]How you doing?

[00:18:16]>> So, um yeah.

[00:18:21]Well, um, look that the director put in the city.

[00:18:29]Look at the dirt. They brings on their homes, their houses, their communities.

[00:18:35]They bring it right on the road only because, you know, this this is the the mad, right?

[00:18:46]Why they do it?

[00:18:48]You make dirt in your home, you bring it on the road >> only to to wake up in the morning to the news that is dirty and you the same person boasting about it. Yeah, dirty.

[00:19:01]Yeah, the clean the dirtiest city in Africa and how do you enjoy that? And you are the same person castigating your own country and you are the same person all over the internet begging people to come to your country. This is unacceptable.

[00:19:20]You can't do it. You say, "Oh yeah, MC is responsible to clear the dead." Yes, MCC does his spot. MCC cleans every day.

[00:19:29]We have five shift of men cleaning this city every day. one of the oldest cities in Africa every day. But you see the the stock part of devil pass. No, they bring it from the homes.

[00:19:48]They bring it in the streets only for it to be broadcasted that city is dirty and they enjoy it.

[00:19:57]and you enjoy it because you want to say okay yeah I'm an opposition imposition and no opposition person no this is unacceptable so this government is putting the street down and saying no if you dirty the city you will be arrested and send the court and find charges as well If you go against the ordinances, you will be penalized.

[00:20:31]You can't sit down or allow things to be happening wrongly.

[00:20:38]>> This is another coat again. Another again looking right here.

[00:20:56]You're not looking for the city. We don't want that.

[00:20:59]>> Please, I'm begging you. Please come back. I see here tonight in this city.

[00:21:08]>> Absolutely. local platform. Just imagine you you just bring fire in the streets and people are there. You know, I like it politicizing it. But the same people wants to go to other countries and live better life.

[00:21:29]They say how how how you want to press Ara, how you want to press Auda, how you want to press those countries.

[00:21:45]Whereas you want to press these cities and you cannot stand up for your own city.

[00:22:01]Monrovia.

[00:22:04]>> You don't want Monroia to look clean.

[00:22:07]You don't want it to look good. The people fix the road. You bring dirty water wasted on the road.

[00:22:14]Everything the people will do. you will still find a way to sabotage it only because you want it to look as the government is not doing well or the government is is failing and that's what you enjoy as a Liberian and the same police that carry out the enforcement you will say they're not doing the work good but tomorrow if somebody brings their dirt right in front of your door you run into police station to call is.

[00:22:49]So if you know that people cannot put dirt in front of your door that is you cannot put dirt into the city and in the streets.

[00:22:58]If you cannot leave why you will build a house and have kitchen but you will want people to come on a car will cop.

[00:23:14]So, slow down. Slow down.

[00:23:21]>> You see it?

[00:23:22]>> So, >> yeah.

[00:23:25]>> So, I'm not going to bother you tonight, but please make sure that your P is there still on that side. Let you go pass freely. Yeah. I beg you.

[00:24:10]>> And people enjoy it. You got kitchen prepare your food and come on the road. Well, you bring cook and fire on the street and then you say you want Monroia to look better and you do these things. This is unacceptable.

[00:24:34]Well, if you will build your house, >> you will build your househ working for y'all.

[00:24:44]>> They're not a point of you cleaning a place that is strictly prohibited to bring in the city. Tell me which one in the capital city.

Watch me.

[00:25:36]Please come this way. Excuse me.

[00:25:39]>> This is not a kitchen. Is this a kitchen? I ask people this.

[00:25:46]>> Then why are you choosing a place like this? Somebody own a building.

[00:25:52]No, but still even if they gave you the capital city, you don't treat the place.

[00:26:01]>> Mom, you don't do it like that. When you want to do this thing, you get a cocoa shark. You have a cocoa shark.

[00:27:06]What do you expect?

[00:27:10]Nobody's taking our property.

[00:27:14]The police only asking her to leave the streets. You saw the dirty water.

[00:27:20]You saw the dirt. You saw everything.

[00:27:23]One more move you want to see.

[00:27:27]So you want this woman to come to your house and put the dirt water in front of it. You want to come if you look, let me tell you something. First thing you should say to yourself, this city, this street, they build it for you to be able to have safe passage, clean streets, and everything.

[00:28:46]They want a clean city. They want an organized city. They want a beautiful city. They don't want to clean it. They don't want to make it beautiful. Every time the police comes in the street, that noise is wrong.

[00:29:11]>> So this is no this is no joke.

[00:29:20]If we want transform, unless we must all work towards it. We must all work towards it.

[00:29:33]Just ask yourself the questions.

Want a better moria? We must all strive to make it perfect.

[00:30:27]Who put the dirt in the city? It's not the police.

[00:30:33]>> Same people day by day. The same people.

[00:30:42]Who comes to clean it? The government.

[00:30:45]So do we want to continue behaving like this?

[00:30:51]The entire city at night people will bring their things sell and leave it right there. Look at the stock pile of dirt.

[00:31:00]Look at the stock pile up there.

[00:31:04]Look at it. They will leave everything just like this. And tomorrow morning some of you where your Google phones will start going live.

[00:32:05]But they are here trying to make sure that when you come out tomorrow, you can see a clean city. A clean street, organized, structured.

[00:32:17]Those who supposed to sell in the market go to the market, simple.

[00:32:26]But loosely the city is everybody just collect once I just come and just put it somewhere inside one fence. No, this is unacceptable.

[00:32:42]As soon you get small money, buy one 2x2, one 2x3, 2x4, you face the bench, you come on the road. No.

[00:32:51]When are we going to to stop treating our city, our capital city like this?

[00:32:59]When?

[00:33:00]From government to government, every government that comes, they try.

[00:33:05]They try, but yet still I'm telling you, William, look at this. Your kitchen, if your kitchen is like this, will you even sit there and the entire city streets that government pay money for everything?

[00:33:58]If this country should change, we all should change.

[00:34:04]I like your political affiliation, your belief, but you must >> But you must this man got his trash being here.

So nobody should say oh that sedition thing or the cedition. No, this is wrong. A wrong is a wrong and it's unacceptable. Be a unity partisan sedition. The mayor doesn't care. He's here to do his job and make sure he does it the right way.

[00:35:37]So >> even you citizen partisan every you can be you must not buy coke pot two by two stick come in the city and start doing something and cause it business.

[00:35:53]You want to do a business you get a shop get a place and do whatever you want to do there and that's it. But you cannot use the streets, government streets, government sidewalks for your business places.

[00:36:10]That's unacceptable. Look at this place.

[00:36:13]Okay. Look at this place. How beautiful this place looks. Look at this place.

[00:36:19]Look at this place.

[00:36:28]This is on Ma Point. See this missile?

[00:36:31]It is This is about Liberia, not party. That's for sure.

[00:36:40]This is about Liberia.

[00:36:43]So people should stop politicizing this thing and calling one group of people name. Look, Liberians are the ones dirtying this country. It's not a political party.

[00:36:55]I said this for fact.

[00:36:58]This is not a political party thing.

[00:37:00]>> Let's go turn 10 turn. Uh this is >> this is unacceptable. Please you cannot be on this live and use uh profane words.

[00:37:22]>> No my man. Let's go. Let's go.

[00:37:24]>> This is unacceptable. This is not uh have a political party. Mayor is determined to make sure that he does the right thing for the people of Liberia, the people of Monrovia.

[00:37:47]Okay?

[00:37:49]So let us not bring in party sentiment and party thing. The people that industry sometimes we go around we hear oh we voted for this party. No you didn't vote for this party to take your garbage and bring it in the street. No. And they won't sit there and allow you that that the mean things. You know the main things that one thing I like charity begins at home. It ends abroad. So even you voted for this party.

[00:38:25]It doesn't give you the right to come in the street to bring cook and start selling. No no no no no no no.

[00:38:35]We won't accept it. We won't allow it.

[00:38:39]What is wrong is wrong.

[00:38:42]So unlike you who didn't vote for this party, we all want to see a beautiful Morovia.

[00:38:48]Some of us left this country, we came out 10 years, 15 years, 20 years, we were able to walk straight to our same houses and homes. You know why sir?

[00:38:57]>> Because the same thing some people painted a house where 1990 is still on the walls up to now. Government goes to enforce it. Previous government, this government goes to enforce it. They complain. We voted for y. Oh yeah, if that's the case, don't vote. If you want to say it'll be dirty, don't vote.

[00:39:15]But you vote for change.

[00:39:18]And so you must implement it. It comes with hurt. It comes with a lap, but you have to stop doing what is wrong.

[00:39:35]In other countries, you don't just take phones and start going live because you want to show they place dirt better. But you know how many talks in other countries? You know how many countries has the worst drama in the world? You know how many countries got dirt, but they don't show it. A small thing. Somebody put a plast.

[00:39:55]Somebody want to run. Look at this.

[00:39:58]Somebody want to run.

[00:40:01]>> All men down.

[00:40:09]>> So you see pepper soup.

[00:40:13]This is it.

[00:40:17]This is it.

[00:40:19]We're now on stream. This is it.

[00:40:29]So let's be professional. Let's be lawabiding citizen. Let's be patriotic to understand that every government that comes comes to work for the people and the people must be able to adhere to this ordinances this policy.

[00:40:46]No way in the world you look at the kind of coupon, the kind of things you bring in the city and you happy about that.

[00:40:55]You happy about that?

[00:40:58]You people complaining fire outreb all kinds of fire all in the city. You you want it to happen if everybody sits and watch everybody's do what they want to do. You think the city will get better?

[00:41:14]>> No.

[00:41:23]This is unacceptable.

[00:41:27]Let us all see the good in this work.

[00:41:35]What kind of city you want? People build makeshift places. They leave any day, any night. People come there and use it for criminal hot outs and all kinds of things.

[00:41:52]So, let's be real. Let's face the fact.

[00:42:01]Let's face face the fact.

[00:42:05]What would it profiter you >> if everyone in the city should just get up if everyone in the city should just come from their homes and start putting things down? Look at it. Look, look, look at what is left.

[00:43:03]your photo Yuck.

[00:43:31]Turn the camera out. What the Hello.

[00:44:38]Fore! Foreign! Foreign!

[00:44:59]brother.

[00:45:14]Good.

[00:45:23]Baby, baby.

[00:45:44]Small comments.

[00:46:25]for you guys.

[00:46:55]Yeah, Welcome.

[00:47:20]Okay.

[00:47:27]Everyone yeah.

[00:47:57]Okay.

[00:48:01]Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

[00:48:05]>> So, um >> Okay. So, um we're just having some conversations here. But >> this exercise is geared towards sensitizing people. We're going live tonight to show you what the the process is.

[00:48:28]>> Gentlemen, >> what the process is, >> this is no politics. This is no, you know, s you know, for a group of so. But now come to think of it, you have people calling, the city is dirty. The mayor's team gets out there to clean. You have people calling that people are in the streets selling food at night. All these things are the same people that calling for it to change. And then when we come out to have it changed and other people get up and say, people losing their jobs and nowhere to do we are not human. We are all humans. We all understand. But we asking you to work along with us. How can you do that?

[00:49:21]One is wrong. We must be able to correct it together and move on. But we cannot continue to live in a city where we keep doing the same thing over and over and over. And this is the police job to enforce. So we will come in force and the next thing or the next day the same thing continues. Do you want to see Monroeville like this? It's up to you.

[00:49:49]Do you want the mayor to sit before hands and watch everything go on the way it's going on? So let's forget about the politics. Let's face reality. What kind of Monrovia you want, what kind of Monrovia you want to see. Just let's just carry on this exercise. You can text the kind of Monrovia you want instead of you texting the kind of group you want to be a part of. We all understand that job business is hard.

[00:50:17]Yes, things are happening. Changes are coming. Things are building up.

[00:50:23]But at the end of the day, should we fold our hands and allow people to just do whatever they want to do in the city?

[00:50:31]This is our capital city.

[00:50:35]So, we're asking you, we're asking you to join us, send the awareness out there, and for you to also know that we don't sleep. We work in the day, we work in the evening, we work in the night and the new ordinance is coming out.

[00:50:54]There are some adjustment, there are some changes, and these things are all things that for the greater good of Monrovia.

[00:51:08]So tell us what kind of Monrovia you want. You want a move where people can just get up and do anything at any time and then you complain that the people now imposing also. So the police is scaring out fresh snow. Look at this.

[00:51:26]>> Look at this.

[00:51:33]Do this type of thing you're doing.

[00:51:37]Tonight I don't want you I just don't ever talk.

[00:51:43]>> I will give you a warning tonight, but it's my first time coming to this side.

[00:51:47]It is my first time talking to you.

[00:51:50]Please look at me.

[00:51:52]I'm deputy director Amos McGill from the city. Please, I don't want you sitting here. I will allow you to take all this stuff from here tonight cleanly.

[00:52:03]Don't come back here again. Find someone else to go to go do your business. This is not a business. Please, this is not a business. Please don't do it again. Please do not do it again. You hear me?

[00:52:20]Now remove from here. Thank you. You have a blessed night.

[00:52:36]So let's go back. What kind of mono you want?

[00:52:40]>> This is not something that people want to come in the street, seize people market, take people things and run with it. No, we have to organize the city. We all have to do it together.

[00:52:54]So Monroia City Corporation under Mayor John Shahuk Shafa is calling upon each and every one of you irrespective of where you come from, who you are.

[00:53:10]So think about what kind of Monroia you want. Is it a Monroia that anybody can do anything? No. the same people.

[00:53:20]His actions are not taken because >> he doesn't want to see people leaving.

[00:53:26]No, his actions are taken because some people will come in the streets, >> it will make all the way to living right there. So if we can all start to tell our families, our friends that these things are unacceptable, >> these things are unacceptable, they will work. you guys noise producer.

[00:53:49]>> Yeah, >> it will work.

[00:53:52]>> So, let's learn to work together. Let's learn to sensitize our people. There are certain people who came in the city.

[00:53:59]They've not the ordinances. They have no idea of things that should be in the city. So, they do it.

[00:54:12]Other people call and say, "Oh, no. This is unacceptable. How can somebody poke by in the street? All these things.

[00:54:20]So, Mayor Shafi is saying as the awareness is ongoing, the enforcement is also ongoing. We should try to at least, you know, sometimes adjust.

[00:54:32]Adjust as Moroians, adjust as Liberians. This is not an intention to take people out of job.

[00:54:40]This is not an intention to suffer people.

[00:54:46]But if we have to maintain and clean this city, we must all do it together. Tell your relatives at home, please. You want to do a business, get your trash being, put it beside you.

[00:55:01]We are finding people for misconduct. We are finding people for noise pollution and even for littering.

[00:55:10]Some of you should know you can't go into other cities outside Liberia and just buy water and throw the bottle down. No, >> you will get penalized.

[00:55:31]We out there.

[00:55:34]>> So if you watching this live stream tonight and tell your people that this is unacceptable, this is unacceptable. This is a good thing.

[00:55:52]So let us not >> let us not politicize these things because these are not good for our country, for our city.

[00:56:07]Let us be very responsive. Let us let us contribute. Let us help let us support the work of the city government. Mayor Shaf is not here to cause harm for people, to suffer people. He's a regular, somebody say a regular Monrovia man. He's a regular Morovia man. Now we're talking about noise solution. But right here at the Queens nightclub and you hearing the music on the main row. So how can you have a nightclub and your music is on the main row?

[00:56:55]I'm going to put it on right here. That's my government.

[00:57:16]No, for you to tell me to dump the on the side wall.

[00:57:24]>> It's not the point of you trying to take it. If you are trying to take it the time to the other bringing it yet, you should have put in something.

[00:57:36]>> Give me chance. Give me chance.

[00:57:39]>> Listen to me.

[00:57:41]The time you took to tell him to dump it here, you could have given him the instruction to put it in a garbage can.

[00:57:49]You still instead for you to tell him to dump it on.

[00:57:56]So according to you, according to you, you said to me, you the one told him to drop because you trying to place the place.

[00:58:15]It is you who doing it. It is you who listen to me.

[00:58:21]>> How will you do this?

[00:58:24]sitting popping your food. You get one oil. Who gets it?

[00:58:37]Because you roast meat sour.

[00:59:04]So now um let's follow up what's happening here.

[00:59:23]So understand water.

[00:59:51]I'm sure punishment.

[01:00:41]Morning.

[01:00:48]Don't worry.

[01:01:11]Hello. Hello. Hello.

[01:01:36]and talk to us.

[01:01:39]You know what I want to do?

[01:01:57]You understand what I'm saying? You always try to be peaceful coming to us. We will be peaceful to you to see you.

[01:02:06]You are not enmy to us. We are not enemy to y.

[01:02:11]We are only here.

[01:02:13]>> Don't get angry with us. We are doing a piece of job. They leave him a position.

[01:02:17]You do the same thing.

[01:02:20]You're not in my position. That's why you behaving like that. You know what I'm saying?

[01:02:26]Don't want any violence. Talk to me tomorrow. Talk to me tomorrow. You understand me?

[01:03:01]So, um playing music loud and the police went in told them to lower the music.

[01:03:16]and they said that the police should go to other clubs to go and tell the people to know what it is instead of coming to them.

[01:03:25]So the police sees the speaker telling them that tomorrow they can follow up on getting it, but for now we're putting up So, we're now on six still here.

[01:04:10]Fire.

[01:04:30]Hello.

[01:05:17]Everyone go downstairs.

[01:06:06]So, uh, Jay Randy, let me, you know, I see lots of, uh, people coming in positive, negative things. But Jiren to you personally I don't know if you are in Liberia or you are out of the country or you follow the government trend into this uh sanitation into this noise pollution and all these things happen. I don't know if you do that but there's been lots lots of awareness or awarenesses made.

[01:06:45]There's been so many. You can go on the MCC page. You can go on the Labra National Police page and wherever you see them. The government is not an irresponsible government. Before they get in the street to enforce, there's been deadlines, countless deadlines of awarenesses given to the people. What kind of deadline you can give Liberians to stop doing what they're doing?

[01:07:11]So, let's be honest. And you keep saying this and saying that. Sometimes you before you speak you should follow up.

[01:07:20]Have there been a witnesses the noise pollution. Do you know how many times the noise pollution notices have been out there? Do you know how many times the Liberal National Police, the city government had been telling people not to in the city, not to do this, not to do that yet and still.

[01:07:40]So if the police is carrying out enforcement tonight at the same time talking to people it's discretional >> because my brother this information I been out there is out there >> this is not something that the people just get up to do today. No but you cannot be here not contributing even one idea but keep saying this and saying that. No, that's not it.

[01:08:11]So ask yourself, what kind of Liberian are you? If you cannot contribute positively, do you know how many awareness is? Go on the police page. This noise pollution thing. The police goes to the club. You playing your music loud. As if to say you're not aware. They get there, they tell you lower the music. You said no, go to the other clock. Go to the other clock. We tell them to lower the music.

[01:08:36]And you say the police should not be doing it.

[01:08:40]You say the police should not be giving awareness and and and and and imposing.

[01:08:45]And brother, look, let me tell you, when people are working, they're not working because they less business.

[01:08:54]The same way you have your constitutional right to come on live and say things the way you see it, you're wrong.

[01:09:03]You're wrong, brother. So Jay Randy, you should change the narrative. You should tell your your siblings, you should tell your uneducated family members and educated family members that this is laudable.

[01:09:17]You cannot keep telling people >> no sense when people talk about sin and yet still people are still sinning. They should give deadline for sin. Do you know how many awarenesses the governor has put out there even before you and I even came on this earth? Where in the world you see somebody supposed to just get up in the street and sweep their house and take the don on the car road where you think that people should just get up and just take cook things and bring it in the street. So the police goes there and say this is unacceptable.

[01:09:54]They take the person dishes because if they take the dishes you won't be able to sell food. You will leave the street.

[01:10:00]You'll get vexed again. This thing is not about just getting catching feelings and getting vexed. It's about you contributing.

[01:10:08]If you want to see or save clean and green Monroville. You should join the fight and tell your people, your friends, your followers, your loved ones that this mayor is doing well to see him at night, to see him in a day.

[01:10:27]We have community service people. Do you know how many communities these people go to every day to talk to people about the ordinances, to talk to people on how you don't follow?

[01:10:40]>> But you come on live, Randy.

[01:10:43]investigate and instigate.

[01:10:45]What kind of Liberian are you?

[01:10:49]What kind of Liberian are you?

[01:10:52]>> You should ask yourself this same exercise you see the police carry out tonight in other countries in Canada.

[01:11:09]Randy, Randy, Randy, I want to respect you. You should stop asking this kind of question. So the government also come in the street tonight and hold plac and hold paper to show that a document.

[01:11:23]I reference you lives. I reference you pages. Go there, check there, see them.

[01:11:31]The government communicates through its PR. Go on the government website pages.

[01:11:35]Do you see them and you say where the government where the document to show G really sometime to you know the people can say let me be a little bit you know decent in his own go to school my brother so comprehension is just something if I'm telling you there's countless awarenesses and there's department that goes out every day into communities to talk about the ordinances. It's there, my brother. If you like, just drive to the city corporation.

[01:12:15]Drive to the state of corporation.

[01:12:20]My brother J.

[01:12:23]We're not going to go back and forth with you, but again, I would tell you that this government is a very responsible government. They don't get up against the will of the people.

[01:12:42]They don't.

[01:12:44]You ask 10 Liberians right now, do they enjoy the dirt that they put in the street? They would tell you absolutely no. So if the government gets up to find a person for putting dirt in the street and you're saying they're supposed to come with document to read it to the person my brother they should come with document to read the president say oh that document there is one page it say don't put that my brother don't do it man you know how you want to go to school they had a goddamn different school buildings all over people went there too they understand but they read and they comprehend to do it This government doesn't just get up in the morning and start picking up people from the streets from the houses. No, this government made witnesses for for painting buildings. 3 months this was all over broadcasted yet and still there are still buildings that people refuse. This government has sent people to court. This government has done a lot of things enforcement with education with information with everything. J Randy so don't make this show or this life about you.

[01:14:04]Now you now you going.

[01:14:07]So please tell your family members and tell yourself that what is wrong is wrong. Look at this.

[01:14:19]Look at this. The level of this fire.

[01:14:22]Look at this business. This thing catches on any people in there. It burns the whole thing. You would be the same person running around here and say homes and houses burning. Bro, this is unacceptable.

[01:14:34]You and I allow somebody to come and bring in your horse to cut them. Then you say they bring argument to show that in a prostitution say look say Randy you got to stop bro I I appreciate you know you following the life but you must change your re your mentality.

[01:15:09]This is changing minds, changing attitude. This is part of the reform process and I know it's is something good that if you can come and say yes this government is doing even 5%.

[01:15:27]It will be good to come and sit down and say this is not good is wrong.

[01:15:35]It's wrong. The people themselves knows what they're doing is wrong. The people themselves knows that it's wrong to just bring cook to just do things. Bro, this city government, let me let me just tell you a little thing about Mayor Shafa. He's a detailed person. He doesn't allow things to just skip like, you know, just pass. No.

[01:16:02]whatever wrong his men will do in the street, they would account for him. So before they get in the street, he's aware and I'm very sure he's watching this live. He doesn't sleep.

[01:16:15]So this man follows check by check on every every sector in the Morova city corporation.

[01:16:27]So this is not a thing.

[01:16:44]>> I think I think I think the tune is changing J. Randy, but Jay Randy, you need to make more research about Mayor Shafi. You need to make more research about his workings. You need to make more research about where he's taking uh the city corporation from and to where it is now.

[01:17:04]Know sometimes some people come on a live without any success story because they got one phone they will type what it feel like but bro this is reality. This city must change.

[01:17:17]It's something that we must wear caps t-shirts and say this city must change.

[01:17:23]We can continue to have a city and people just do things.

[01:17:30]People just do things. But when we go to Kgali, we posting and taking picture. I say, "Oh, they say they're too fun."

[01:17:42]>> No, Randy.

[01:17:45]So during the process at least I've spoken to your conscience and I've given you places you can go and make your research right >> and look at this one >> do you know since when people been talking about this thing look at this man look at this man >> what you expect the police to do or what you expect people to do >> this is it this is a man who's urinating right here look at this look at this look this.

[01:18:16]>> And look at him.

[01:18:17]>> Look at him.

[01:18:19]>> Look at him.

[01:18:20]>> How you doing?

[01:18:22]>> How you doing?

[01:18:24]>> Hello.

[01:18:24]>> Okay.

[01:18:25]>> How you doing?

[01:18:25]>> Look at it.

[01:18:28]>> Hello.

[01:18:30]Hello.

[01:18:32]>> Look at it. You see what's happening?

[01:18:35]You see the kind of city J Randy. So tell me now. J Randy, tell me. Look at this man. Did you see this man right now?

[01:18:54]J Randy, go and make your research, my brother.

[01:18:58]You're talking out of your own You're talking out of your own thing now because nobody's depending on one man.

[01:19:07]Right now, the government of Liberia is led by the president.

[01:19:13]You know that. So imagine that.

[01:19:21]>> Imagine that.

[01:19:41]So currently now we are taking him to level one. We want to take his particular everything either in the car or we issue a farm. If you can pay the farm tonight on e pay the farm tonight we caring tomorrow you come for a car and make sure the payment is paid for you and in the street.

[01:19:59]>> Somebody in the car here. Yes.

[01:20:02]>> Yeah.

[01:20:06]>> Okay. So, we're behind you.

[01:20:08]>> Yeah. This man >> urinating in the street >> and then somebody will say we should come and read him where they say don't urinate in the street. My brother, my brother, what kind of moria do you want? And I just admire that question. I just admire that question mayor Shafa when he took over. That's the question he asked. What kind of Monrovia do you want? A Monrovia that I would pee in the street because that's the kind of Monrovia I want. What kind of Monroe do you want?

[01:20:56]>> We should be we should be very very very very very responsible for these things that happen. We should take responsibility >> knowing that Shafa is doing his thing.

[01:21:13]>> But at the end of the day, you're there saying So now this is where we are now on the piano street.

[01:34:17]Do we want a Monroia where we can be friends with the police and the police can also be friends with us? Do you want a Monroia where we can stay anywhere and take picture because the buildings are beautiful, the streets are clean? What kind of Monrovia do we want?

[01:34:33]>> Or do we want a Monroia where you can just come and take your third party there and say, "Yeah, Morova is there.

[01:35:03]As you see the streets tonight like this, you have the mass clearing team. As you can see this lady with an MCC jacket, they will be sweeping, piling it, and the trucks will come and pick it up. So imagine this lady here working tonight because of a country sweeping claiming dirt that other people making other people made claiming they were sweeping and a lot of you will say yeah that the job I said that's the job they will come and sweep they will clean it and be Oh, >> before 5:00 in the morning, this place will be clean. No dirt.

[01:35:58]>> But they will come back again.

[01:36:00]They'll come back again in the morning.

[01:36:04]They will sell, leave the streets like that. Look at I'm showing you MCC people cleaning up tonight.

[01:36:12]I'm showing you.

[01:36:14]So these people clean up in the night.

[01:36:16]They come back in the morning, as early as 6:00, they clean up. They come back in the afternoon, they clean up. They come back in the evening, they clean up.

[01:36:28]They come back in the night. You see these things every day and night.

[01:36:36]What can you say to your fellow Liberians watching?

[01:36:41]Can you say that MC is not working?

[01:36:45]But you can say that MCC got to say it clean say so our people >> work here and there our people clean up day and night.

[01:37:06]This is happening.

[01:37:19]So these things are happening and people sit down and say, "Oh yeah, it happen.

[01:37:25]It's supposed to happen." No, this is unacceptable.

[01:37:30]>> This is unacceptable.

[01:37:33]So you guys got to understand that the work that has been done in the city is not done for MCC.

[01:37:42]is not done for the mayor. It's done for the people of Liberia.

[01:37:50]I cannot say Monroia because sometimes somebody will come from local county or come to Monroia. They want to say, "Oh yeah, Monroia is clean."

[01:37:58]That's why these men are out here late and forcing.

[01:38:04]So our people sweep, they pack the dirt, control the truck comes, collect the dust. These people come here with a plastic everything they make it.

[01:38:14]>> They leave it right there.

[01:38:18]>> We use our discretion. They will come in the streets now and say, "Oh, everybody who selling ko will find you because you made that." People will say, "Oh, but they come to warn them." They tell them what they doing that is not right.

[01:38:32]And then people say, "Oh no."

[01:38:39]So, This is happening every day. This is not a one good thing and this has never been a one good thing by the city government.

[01:38:54]>> Most of you or all of you can see the transformation in this process. This is not a one day thing. This is not going to change over day. that I can assure you it's going to take time and this is the time it's going to come with some stringent measures it's going to come with some hard pain but at least we will get there if we all work together to be able to >> to do what hey We should all be able to tell our people, encourage our people, sensitize our people on how to keep the city clean and do it well. So these things are happening. It's not a daytime thing, but gradually let us be able to inform our people. Do not throw dirt in the city.

[01:40:04]It's called littering.

[01:40:06]We should educate our people day by day.

[01:40:09]This is not a one day process. This is not a one day process.

[01:40:23]So Christina and T. Yeah. And let's let's be honest, if not 20 to 30% of people in Liberia, they've been to different countries, they've seen it all.

[01:40:42]Enforcement, fines, penalties are not for job. They are strictly to the book.

[01:40:49]But the same thing because of the refund process the way we are gravitating you know sometimes the police goes they warn you they tell you oh don't do this don't do that it's a process but should they give deadline for telling you don't do this no they have to continuously tell people don't do this but at the same time they have to gradually carry out and carry on enforcement So these things work together. When people say oh no you can't be carry on enforcement be carry on awareness. Who told you?

[01:41:43]So, this is one of Liberia's finest uh music producer. We just bumped into him.

[01:41:49]Let me say uh good evening to you.

[01:41:51]>> Okay.

[01:42:48]>> Due to your performance, my man, what you make of the city?

[01:42:51]>> Well, I I must applaud and tell MCC, thank you for the hard work. City police, at least they put them in place.

[01:43:00]Yeah, I love the way they doing our work. But you know people take it easy with some take on them.

[01:43:09]>> Yeah.

[01:43:10]>> You know, everyone pray for change.

[01:43:12]Still waiting for change.

[01:43:13]>> Yeah.

[01:43:14]>> Yeah.

[01:43:14]>> Thank you very much.

[01:43:15]>> Shout out to my fans. I love y'all. I still got my I still dancing. I still dance and my piano dance. I may sing it.

[01:43:23]>> Don't forget MJ for me.

[01:43:27]>> Yeah.

[01:43:27]>> And remember it's on Facebook.

[01:43:28]>> Okay. Thank you very much. That's the voice of uh my bro M Jackson and uh I'm telling you they're saying they love the operation and I hope you love the operation too. So we're still here on Kerry Street. You heard him saying uh this place uh look look at K Street. Look at how tidy it is. Look at how the people clean it.

[01:43:52]Look at how they clean it. So what can you say? There's nothing there to say that this government is not working.

[01:43:58]Let's leave this government. There's nothing there for you to say that Mayor Shaf is not working. What can you Let's leave Mayor Shaf. There's nothing you can say that the Monroia City Corporation is not doing a job.

[01:44:11]>> So, Kristen, look at our people this night.

[01:44:15]>> What is the time now? Look at our people working.

[01:44:19]11:09. They're working.

[01:44:24]By the time it's 1 2 a.m. the whole entire all the streets in Monroville will be clean. All the streets will be clean. But the thing is the same people that making the market, the same people that selling the water, buying a bag of water, trapping it in the streets, doing all these things, they say the corporation comes after them and claim it.

[01:45:06]Okay.

[01:45:17]So now we're still here and uh as you can see the job been done. We're just showing you the progress. We show you in a day.

[01:45:28]We'll show you in a day how it is.

[01:45:31]You'll see the team in the streets cleaning, sweeping. We show you our community service people going in communities sensitizing the people telling them about the new ordinance that is out what you should do as a citizen what you shouldn't do what you shouldn't do all these things is there so take advantage grab a copy of the new ordinance read it to your children read it to your family members so they know so You don't count on life the days people going like oh the J won't want punish the people there's nothing to call the J won't punish the people like some of you J won't travel but when you travel in other countries you treat it there you cannot throw dirt in the street you cannot buy chewing gum and just dash it in the streets no you must treat the street with respect that's all as you expect the city government to clean the city government also expect you to keep it clean.

[01:46:40]To keep it clean, to keep it clean. So, this is a win-win thing.

[01:46:49]>> But let's hear from you again over and over. What kind of Monroia do you want?

[01:46:54]A Monrovia that you want to see filthy?

[01:46:58]A Monrovia that you want people to laugh at? No. This is unacceptable.

[01:47:04]We cannot do it.

[01:47:08]Imagine um this relative of yours born in some town doesn't even know doesn't even have a school, doesn't even have a lot to to see.

[01:47:25]and you bring that person to Monrovia and the person comes who are they depending on for direction it's you like you leaving from here going to another country the person who's going to host you there is that person you depend on that person is the one to tell you oh in a country we can't do this we can't do that that's how when you come to Monrovia it should be we should be able to educate our people we should be able to educate our people, you can't just leave it all alone.

[01:48:00]And then the only time we show that we educated when we when people come on live and start to say things the way they think it's supposed to be.

[01:48:12]But mind you, look at this one. Look at this one.

[01:48:19]And you say, "Yes, this is how the city is supposed to be."

[01:48:22]You said this is how the city is supposed to be.

[01:48:40]So the street cleaning is ongoing. You see the kind of day they make in the city. See this kind of day.

[01:48:48]See the kind of day. Show the city is beautiful Christian. Show the city is beautiful.

[01:48:56]To keep it beautiful, we have to keep it clean.

[01:49:00]What is the harm in in people trying to tell you to keep it clean? What is the harm in it? They talk to you today, don't put it there. They come back tomorrow, you put it there.

[01:49:21]Let's be real.

[01:49:23]Let's treat this city as our own.

[01:49:27]Let's treat it as our own. What kind of Monroe do you want?

[01:49:33]This is the question. This is the question that Mayor Sheff keep asking, "What kind of Monrovia do you want?

[01:49:44]>> Do you want a city as a slum?" No. Look at this. Look at this.

[01:49:51]So, you know what baffles me is? Some of these people, you pass in a yard and you drop paper, hey, you regret it. But they will come in the street and make dirt.

[01:50:08]So, if you think that even in your yard, you can't keep it dirty, why would you want to keep the public street dirty?

[01:50:15]Why?

[01:50:25]Why some of them carrying people to police station because the person spit in a y or throw something in a y.

[01:50:38]All these things are unacceptable. If you can't do it in your yard, why you want to do it in the streets?

[01:50:44]>> Why you want to do it on the main street? Why you want to do it there?

[01:50:49]And then you say tomorrow you grab your phone >> because it's a techno because it's an iPhone and you say you going live you celebrating. What is there to celebrate?

[01:51:05]What is there to celebrate about?

[01:51:09]>> I went to to Ghana some years ago.

[01:51:14]got on the taxi from the airport passing through some roads and I saw this stock pile of dirt and I grabbed my phone to say oh and it say bro can get there let me take the picture and the taxi driver said to me ah ch what is wrong with you I said oh he said no you don't do that we don't do that you can do it in Liberia I say yeah he said no we don't do that maybe you don't want investor to come to your country.

[01:51:45]>> If you want investor to come to your country, why will you show negative things about your country? Why? That's the question. But they go back and say, "Oh, they country the people not doing this."

[01:52:01]No, the president, the government official, they all going from country to country looking for it. But when a when a go, look, let me tell you something. Let me tell you this reality today. Some of you watching on this live Christian the rest of you. You can be wearing like somebody can pass away that America they can call you on Thursday. You know they meant that. That is to tell you that our government officials leave this country go to Europe, Asia, America to go beg for money to come and develop. And the people telling them oh your country there all day people posting there in the street. all day people showing this and that. It's because >> we enjoy >> our country and our people been bullied.

[01:53:05]>> Don't leave.

[01:53:11]Do you understand? So what is there for us to enjoy? Bringing our country's image down in the name of Yeah.

[01:53:21]I enjoy myself. What is there to enjoy?

[01:53:25]And that guy stopped me in the text. He said, "No, no, no. You do it. I'll pull you down for my car." You cannot take picture of waste in the streets to post it, to show it.

[01:53:38]You cannot do that.

[01:53:43]But unlike some of you will come on a live maybe you won't finish your late data or maybe you won't show that oh yeah you commented but tomorrow you won't go to American ambassador you won't get visa to go to a country that is projected as the best country in the world. You want to go there. They're not showing you things.

[01:54:10]They're not showing you things that you don't like to see, but you want to show them things that they don't like to see.

[01:54:17]Uh um this is the tournament that we took for street almost to speak intersection. He walked us throughout the night. We want to give you this double warning that place you selling your food.

[01:54:36]your meat roasting it over there. Do not put it there again.

[01:54:40]Do not set it there again. Find a better way to roast your meat. I hope you giving you warning tonight. All right.

[01:54:50]So that go >> keep it clean.

[01:54:54]>> Please do it. Yeah.

[01:54:57]All of us. All of us. Yeah. But please go keep it clean. And you have a blessed night. Thank you very much.

[01:55:06]>> So, uh this is the street uh the guy who meet talk to and uh he's been released.

[01:55:16]He's been released and uh >> so we wind it down and thank you so much for your comments. Thank you for the follow and even though some of you been watching, you're not commenting, but we know deep down you know that this government and Mayor Shafa is doing a job well done. You heard the president talked about it. Monrova is not like other cities, but Monrova is getting better. And getting better is a process.

[01:55:54]And this process includes you, includes me, includes everyone.

[01:56:00]What kind of Monroia do you want? What kind of Monroia do you want? Is the question that you should ask yourself.

[01:56:07]And if you think that you want to go to Thailand, Japan because it's seen is being projected beautiful, it's because the people themselves wants to show that it is beautiful. So we want to show that Monrovia is beautiful and we must keep it clean.

[01:56:27]Let's keep it clean. Look at the people.

[01:56:28]Look how many streets we going to. You see the people working tonight, late night. You'll see them tomorrow morning again. You will see them in the evening.

[01:56:36]You'll see them in the afternoon, but we want to show that the city is dirty because that's what we enjoy.

[01:56:43]We enjoy bullying our own children in our homes because we feel that it makes them stronger. This is bad. We have to change our mentality. And someone asking, when do you know? Look, my brother, this is the the weirdest thing that you can do as a Liberian.

[01:57:05]city right now is gone >> to bring your country down to show the terrible things about your country.

[01:57:13]>> This is no joke about it. You will not talk about, oh yeah, uh we never had lights, we're having lights. You will not talk about, oh yeah, we had a noisy city, but having a calm city. You will not talk about these things because for you, if you talk about it, it shows progress. And progress for you is weakness.

[01:57:37]No, let us talk about progress. Let us talk about where we coming from to where we going and where we want to be.

[01:57:48]Where we want to be.

[01:57:51]So, thank you so much for watching and we ask you to keep sharing our life every time we go live and uh keep following Mayor Shafa, keep following the Moran City Corporation page and keep following the work that we do in the city to make it better. Please comment on our life and let's make Monrovia a place that we all can call home. It's not only in your room. Advise your family members to not bring coupon in the street as you're watching this live that this is unacceptable.

[01:58:35]Let us be the change we want to be.

[01:58:43]Let us be the change we want to be.

[01:58:47]>> So I just learn how some people can just finish their he said Rand Benjamin won't finish that. He said stop people from playing music is progress.

[01:59:11]Ask yourself how do you sound when you write things like this?

[01:59:18]What how do you define progress?

[01:59:22]And somebody can say na won't go to school. How do you define progress?

[01:59:28]Can you go to sleep playing music loud and wake up in the morning and feel rejuvenated and feel anxious and feel okay?

[01:59:41]the music itself will go off to tell you that it need rest.

[01:59:47]>> So if it's not a progress for you, if you see progress as coming on Facebook and comment because you want to finish your data render, it's it's weird the same thing we're talking about.

[02:00:02]They say they noisy booing noise pollution reduce the music and you say you call that progress.

[02:00:11]That's progress my friend.

[02:00:13]>> If you don't like train your children to be making noise in your home when people come let them be shouting. Hey your friends come visit you let them be shouting. Yeah. Says is not progress. If you won't tell your children say oh you keep quiet talking. Says it's not progress. Oh, sometimes some people come on live, they can just show their simplicity and they can just show their their their activities of not being together.

[02:00:44]My brother, if playing loud music in the street and the government say it should be low, if it's not progress, well, send a train to >> I don't know how they can call it all the noisy places you can send it to.

[02:01:02]>> It's up to you. But we making progress and we won't stop because once our people can sleep sound and listen to the sound of footsteps under their windows because they're not disturbed by loud music.

[02:01:19]They can observe their surrounding is progress.

[02:01:25]If it used to happen and it's not happening and we're trying to reduce it, not to stop it, it's progress.

[02:01:31]So now you won't go to school. Yeah.

[02:01:39]>> Uhhuh.

[02:01:42]So even though you get phone, you can write your own bar. Sometimes you got to try to contribute positively.

[02:01:49]Come on live. Your daughter see that kind of comment.

[02:01:52]deal because she won't even expect you to think outside and say stopping people from playing loud music. You call that progress. It's progress.

[02:02:06]Noise pollution. You don't just get and just play music so loud.

[02:02:21]>> You can do it. At least we have calm now. People can can lay down. But he say, "Oh yeah, my man sick." Somebody complaining, begging you, their man sick.

[02:02:33]And some churches, you see some churches even for them to put the speaker up in a in a day while community people sleeping. You boom, everybody will jump.

[02:02:44]to say that God business can do it.

[02:02:49]Can do it. A church having eight 12 big big speakers. They put everything on in a 10x10 room in the dead loudly shouting. Everybody, >> everybody blowing. Everybody on 12 microphones. 12 speakers, everybody. And you say that God business and this little this man suffering from a low pressure or sudden there trying to calm his head beating and you overdriv and you say no the people having chess service because that's how we talk cuz that's how we see it.

[02:03:44]But when it's happening to your relative, you running to police station now to go call the police. They get making that my pressure to go up. That's the time you want police to understand you're Jewish.

[02:04:00]But when they doing it to other people is that that Net B go to police station. We have to stop it. If it cannot be good for you, shouldn't be good for others.

[02:04:14]So let's have a sound Monrovia. A Monrovia that we can be able to work with the police to work with the city to work with him. If people not after you, they're not after you.

[02:04:35]All these things that we are implementing is because of you.

[02:04:40]It's because of you. Look at this guy tonight. Look, sleeping in here. Look at this guy cleaning this place. There people, you see bottles that are people who buy absorbing the water, they dash it in here. You go to other countries and you see these things and you just take your thing and drop it there. But somebody got to come after you and clean it.

[02:04:59]How does it sound?

[02:05:03]Many of us in our homes will do the same thing. Just need things the place to see it. Yeah, it's good. Even the cleaner gets tired of cleaning.

[02:05:13]But we say but we say let's do this together.

[02:05:20]Mayor Shafa say he's not after you.

[02:05:24]He himself understand the city and things that going on. But at the end of the day, we must build Monrovia on Liberia for all of us, not for one person, not for one group.

[02:05:45]So we keeping it clean and keeping it clean. Enforcement, penalties, fines and all. Now we know who all dropped it there. But any kind.

[02:05:56]So when we see you, we take it like the guy you saw urinating in the street. How can a man build a house, buy a combo, everything, but it comes down and people in the street.

[02:06:14]So this is it again. This same building was fine over the years. Uh this is the dirt that they brought and put right here. Now what can you see about it again? This building, this building is actually giving us serious problem. This girl at night cleaning, sweeping, sweeping, but they come out and put it there right here.

[02:06:37]You see people got to just stop these things. It's not good.

[02:06:43]Who say you know some people will not do this and do that? But this is a continuous process of people not adhering.

[02:06:53]Not adhering.

[02:06:55]So when the post enforce then the people say oh the people that oh so you be b your horse. So you kind of say people say got no bathroom to sounds just like your name. Your statement sound just like your name to so say yeah that's the reason why name finish. I want to give you two friends name at least you're going to put su and put understand some kind of medicine you just come and write things what is the decency in it that you stand in the street on the car and pee and say got no and bathroom in the in the in the in a in the streets to red to look let me tell you something to make moreover better we all must do it together.

[02:08:21]>> But see where that man was urinating on the road.

[02:08:26]On the road. You say, "Yeah, because we treat this city here so bad. We treat this city so bad and we take it for. But when we wear our clothes, we get in the street. The first question of Liberian man, um, my grandma will say that beat up, you know who I am. You do know who I am.

[02:08:53]By the end of the day, who I am that a man who with all dignity, with all respect, with all culture will go and take his pennies and pee in the middle of the road and your brother to rich will come and say you go you be bathroom but he build bathroom to your house and forgot to pee there. So why you build a bathroom to your house and come on the road to pee? So bring a camel on the street.

[02:09:19]Yeah, can bring a camera in the street saying that on in the street you like to be.

[02:09:25]It's unacceptable and we will not condone this. I'm telling you, honor mayor Shafa, you will not you will not publicly come in the street later and be seen and we let you go. You will not get in the street, take your Koopa from your horse and come on the street to co we will not agree. So thank you so much and thank you. This is how we call this a wrap. Uh
