Open Letter to the President
His Excellency Hon. Joseph N. Boakai, Sr.
President Republic of Liberia
Executive Mansion, Capitol Hill,
Monrovia Liberia
Dear President Boakai,
We the renal patients taking treatment at the Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf Dialysis Center, John F. Kennedy, Memorial Hospital, are delighted to bring you special New Year Greetings and express our profound gratitude to you for the excellent leadership you are providing our beloved country, Liberia.
We are deeply saddened, that issues that could have just been handled by the JFK Administration, we are being compelled to bring them to your attention, especially through this medium. This is because, we have employed all efforts to work with the JFK Memorial Hospital Administration to help address the appalling conditions at the Dialysis Center, including the long delays in the supply of consumables needed to treat patients, but unfortunately the leadership at the hospital is taking little or no concrete actions. It is now clear to us, the renal patients, that the one and only Dialysis Center, that was opened almost three years ago to help treat renal illness has now become a conduit for death and destruction because of the insensitivity of the JFK Administration. This can also be attributed of poor leadership, incompetence or simply, that the JFK Administration just does not care.
Your Excellency, because this is an open letter, we don’t think it is prudent to discuss all these issues. We are therefore appealing to you to please set up a small neutral committee to come to investigate the actual situation at the Dialysis Center and report back to you. Time is of essence as your citizens’ lives are at risks. We may be reached on 0770164598 and 0881367870.
Sincerely,
The Renal Patients
