Speaking in an interview with the Liberia News Agency Friday, Lamba indicated that in Africa, land commensurate with power, prestige, morale and wealth, and as such, land issues are not as simple as people perceive them sometimes.

 He noted how land dispute has been a major part of most crises in Africa, stressing the need to settle disputes through proper meditations.

 Lamba appealed to the Liberian government to expand the functions of the Land Commission from advisory and policy-making to include land adjudication, administration, planning and environmental management.
