Some of those projects are: the construction of the Tahn Health Facility, Varguaye Health Facility, Weajue Public School Renovation, M\u2019baloma Maternity Waiting Home construction, M\u2019baloma Health Facility Staffs Residential construction, Janne-mana Peace Town Hall, Beh-Gondor Clinic and Gold Camp Town Hall among others.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Allen said \u201cMost people tend to forget the history of this Clan Fund. But if Fofana can recall when we were starting in the Ndblama area, they brought me one long list of things and they wanted the company to do. And we ended up with the idea let\u2019s put this thing back in the hands of the various clans. Today after series of protests, today we have a clan fund\u201d. We hope that even the Government can learn from us that our people at the very local level are capable of managing their projects. We just need check and balance, but they can manage it. I always had the confidence that they could do it, that\u2019s why I brought that idea and today is proving right\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He also admonished local contractors implementing these communities driven developments not to allow any of BMMC funded projects turn to what he terms as \u201cWhite Elephant Projects\u201d which he said happens when a contractor fails to complete a particular project and start another one.<\/p>\n<p>The BMMC General Manager for Country Affairs has at the same time called on local county authorities, as well as citizens of the three Clans to properly manage and maintain the projects that would greatly impact their lives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn behalf of our CEO, our General Manager Mr. Reza Karimiyan and our entire team here at Bea Mountain Mining Corporation I\u2019m honored to present this cheque to leaders of our host communities through your office. As we have started, let\u2019s continue to use these resources, lets continue to work progressively, let\u2019s continue to ensure that the funds that we received we use them for the benefit of our communities. And when we do that, we on the company side make a commitment that as long as that resource we are mining is there, we will continue to provide these funds,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>On the issue of bureaucracy in accessing the funds, GM Allen said management will look into what needs to be done to reduce the difficulties, but emphasized that check and balance will be maintained to ensure proper management of the fund.<\/p>\n<p>Receiving the cheque on behalf of the three Clans, Grand Cape Mount County Superintendent, Honorable Aaron B. Vincent thanked Bea Mountain for the fund and promised that his citizens will use the money to implement meaningful development projects in their communities.<\/p>\n<p>Superintendent Vincent continues: \u201cBea Mountain you have done well, now we have seen the tangibles, and we can see the physical again, and we know more tangibles will come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, the Grand Cape Mount County Superintendent encouraged members of the Project Management Committee from the three Clans to submit a comprehensive report to his office detailing how the first money provided by BMMC was expended.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
