A Liberian identified as Sonnie Kollie on May 31, 2024, showered praises on the Liberia National Police for enforcing the ‘no go zones’ restrictions for motorcyclists.
In its recent pronouncement by Inspector General Gregory Coleman, the police laid down criteria for motorcyclists to ply the major streets; an effort that is being recognized and appreciated as a national duty to country.
According to Madam Kollie, her gesture comes in the wake of the proper and timely enforcement of the no go zones measures for motorcyclists by officers of the Liberia National Police at various checkpoints across major streets in Monrovia.
During the presentation of a cookout food and other consumable food items were distributed to officers at the Vamoma intersection, Madam Kollie said many Liberians living in the United States of America, United Kingdom, Canada and other parts of the world, contributed cash toward the preparation of the food and other items donated by her to the police officers.
The actual number of food per plates distributed were 500, 50 sacks of water and 50 sacks of bottle water.
Meanwhile, the Police Inspector General Gregory Coleman lauded Madam Kollie and all contributors for the gesture towards his officers.
IG Coleman used the medium to call on other Liberians to emulate the good example of Madam Sonnie Kollie as the LNP is aimed at restoring law and order to provide safety and promote the wellbeing of all Liberian across the Country specifically, Monrovia where just ten to twelve miles out of forty-seven square miles is being considered no go zones for motorcyclists.
