Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>Bong County Electoral District #6 Representative Moima Briggs Mensah is calling on the 55th Legislature to investigate money that has been allocated by the 54th Legislature towards the Gbondoi Health Clinic in Bong County.<\/p>\n

Speaking Monday morning on a local radio station Punch FM, Rep. Mensah said she is going to join the effort with Senators for accountability in budgeting on Gbondoi Health Clinic.<\/p>\n

The Bong County lawmaker added that she will spearhead a legislative inquiry into the mysterious absence of Gbondoi Clinic, a budgeted project for about six years with no physical presence.<\/p>\n

She noted that despite allocations to the clinic, the clinic remains elusive, prompting concerns about fiscal transparency and accountability.<\/p>\n

Rep. Briggs Mensah said she\u2019s going to work with the two Senators of Bong County \u2013 Sen. Johnny Kephe and Sen. Prince K. Moye \u2013 to address this situation.<\/p>\n

She said they will scrutinize Deputy Minister for Budget, Madam Tanneh Branson, during her confirmation hearing, seeking answers about the prolonged inclusion of Gbondoi Clinic in the budget without any tangible outcomes.<\/p>\n

She added that the clinic in question has in the past years been captured in the National Budget with no physical structure for services to be rendered to citizens of Bong County.<\/p>\n

The mystery surrounding how funding was allotted in the National Budget for an allegedly non-existent Gbondoi Clinic has left many wondering over who is chopping the allotted cash.<\/p>\n

During the tenure of former President George Manneh Weah, the amount of US$25,000 was allocated to the National Budget for the Gbondoi Clinic in Electoral District #6, Bong County.<\/p>\n

The money was placed in the budget for the operations of said clinic.<\/p>\n

Bong County Electoral District #2 Representative James Kolleh and Bong County Electoral District #6 Representative Moima Briggs Mensah said there is no need for the clinic to be included in the National Budget.<\/p>\n

Rep. Kolleh told members of the House of Representatives that it had been established that the clinic did not exist and that the allocation was only meant for some individuals\u2019 selfish gains.<\/p>\n
