This was disclosed by the Liberian leader Ellen Johnson Sirleaf recently when she returned from Tokyo, Japan where she held bilateral discussions with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

According to an Executive Mansion release, the Liberian leader reminded journalists at the Roberts International Airport upon her arrival that the construction of the first two lanes and the bridges commenced in the dry season during 2014, but was suspended due to the Ebola crisis.

She noted that “Work is expected to resume in October this year.”

President Sirleaf noted that the first priority now is to get the Japanese contactors back to be able to complete the work and other things they have promised to assist with in the nation’s health sector.

On her key visit to Tokyo to attend the 2nd World Assembly for Women (WAW 2015) the Liberian leader noted that the trip went well and that her visit was in response to the Prime Minister’s invitation to give the keynote address at his program about the empowerment of women.

She stressed that the WAW assembly which brought together over 140 leaders in various fields from more than 40 countries and seven international organizations, was one of the efforts to achieve a society where women shine and continue to be one of the priority issues of the Government of current Japanese Prime Minister.
