He observed that people in positions of trust now, who are being accused of involvement in corrupt practices, were once students and are members of the very society they seek to defraud.

Anderson noted that corruption and immorality are found at all levels of society, including schools, market places, and hence efforts to eradicate this vice must start from the society and schools.

According to the Liberia News Agency, Mr. Anderson made the call Friday at a scholarship fund drive organized by senior students of the African Methodist Episcopal University (AMEU).

Mr. Anderson said it was necessary for people to begin good moral comportment while in school, so that when they enter into government or gain employment in high profile areas of trust, they will not engage in corruption and immorality.
