Monrovia – Naymote Partners for Democratic Development recently organized a one-day town hall meeting at the Center for the Exchange of Intellectual Opinion (CEIO) on Carey Street, gathering community members to discuss the findings of the President Meter Report—a key tool aimed at promoting government accountability.
Led by Naymote Research Associate D. Freeman Myers, the session offered an in-depth look at the report’s methodology. Myers explained the process of evaluating the government’s performance, revealing a concerning fulfillment rating of only 3% out of 119 promises made by the President. This low score underscored the gap between political commitments and actual outcomes, sparking important discussions among the attendees.
Over 60 participants attended the meeting, engaging actively through questions and recommendations. The audience included citizens, local leaders, members of the Exchange of Intellectual Opinion (CEIO), and other stakeholders, all of whom expressed concerns over governance and accountability in Liberia.
One participant urged Naymote to continue its mission of informing citizens, stressing that reliable information is essential for making informed decisions. This call to action highlighted the importance of civic engagement and the role of organizations like Naymote in fostering an informed electorate.
The President Meter Report is part of Naymote’s broader initiative to empower citizens and drive national accountability. By providing transparent assessments of government performance, Naymote aims to promote active participation in the democratic process and hold leaders accountable for their promises.
As the dialogue concluded, attendees left with a renewed sense of purpose, motivated to advocate for greater accountability and transparency in governance. Naymote remains committed to its mission of enhancing civic engagement and ensuring that citizens have the tools they need to influence positive change in their communities.
