This work discusses the political history of Liberia, depicting the constitutional exclusion and social barriers between the indigenous population and the freed slave immigrants who cohabitated the West African region that became Liberia. It tells of malfeasance, misfeasance, and nonfeasance in the governance of the nation including ambition for political power, neglect of the rural population, and fraudulently acquired wealth by politicians. Featured also is the nation's education sector, plagued by high unemployment rate among pre-service teachers, adamance of government to increase or adjust in-service teachers' salaries and their early retirement following the acquisition of higher teacher education certificates, diplomas, or degrees. Unregulated tuition and fees among private and faith-based schools, academic malpractices involving payment of "flexibility fees" during national examinations are hinted. Drug trafficking and arms smuggling are no exception to the discourse. Other emerging issues include "mercenary" voters across electoral districts, counties and international boundaries during presidential and legislative eledctions.
