MONROVIA, May 10 (LINA)- Public Works Minister William Gyude Moore  has challenged Liberian youths to prepare themselves technically through vocational and technical education for the reconstruction process of Liberia.

Minister Moore explained that Liberia is at the stage of building most of its infrastructures that were damaged during the protracted civil conflict, and that it will require people with technical skills to carry out the rebuilding process.

The Public Works Boss proffered the challenge Friday at a program marking the 6th Anniversary of the Center for the Exchange of Intellectual Opinions (CEIO) held on Carey Street in Central Monrovia.

He observed that if Liberian youths prepare themselves both technically and academically, they will play a key role in the growth and development of their country.

He pointed out that it will be difficult to transform Liberia when the youths are not prepared to meet the challenges ahead.

Meanwhile, Minister Moore has reiterated his call on Liberians to abide by policies and regulations governing construction in the country, noting that building in alleys is a violation of the building policy.
