While presenting about twenty new motorcycles to motorcyclists of the Benda Clan in District. #: 5, Margibi County, Representative Clarence G. Gahr has told the cyclists and other residents of his district that he is not going to give any excuse during his second term.
He indicated that whatever promises made during the campaign and whatever he says going forward, will be delivered.
He stated, “This time, we told people that there will be no room for excuses, whatever we promise, we will do it.”
He made the statement in Perkins Farm, along the Borlorla Road in his district where local authorities, cyclists and a lot of other people were in present.
One major campaign promise of the 2017 Elections he did not fulfill to the district up to 2023 is to secure a yellow machine for the district but at the moment, the lawmaker has bought a new yellow machine for the district.
He stated that achieving the motorcycles for the cyclists in the Benda Clan is something that is a matter of must.

He shared his experience in the area during many years back saying that by 1999 to 2000, only cars were seen along the Borlorla Road, so if one wanted to go to Kakaka or Whorn, he or she had to walk if the car the person is looking up to already had passengers.
Currently, he said motorcyclists have made transportation easier in a lot of places in Liberia so they are very important.
The lawmaker continued that even many of the places where ambulances can’t reach, motorcyclists can reach there.
He told them that the cyclists must see the bikes as an empowerment for their group and others who look up to them for survival daily, adding that gone are the days when cyclists rode behind politicians for gas as the time to enhance their capacity is now.
He recalled that supporting motorcyclists is not a waste but it is supporting a crucial part of the society especially the transport sector.
He says, he sees his leadership as a susu between him and his constituents that requires him to now and onward pay his obligations to them as they have paid theirs by giving voting him as their representative.
For the issue of criticism, he explained that he listens to the criticisms and carefully use them as stepping stones to do better for the district because the critics too help him in his leadership, a reason for which he doesn’t easily speak when he is being criticized.
According to him, he sees himself as dump site that takes all of the wastes but yet, it uses the wastes to grow pumpkins, peppers, potato greens and other things that same waste disposers go to harvest for consumption.
He said one of the key priorities of his leadership is to ensure that he completes all of the projects he did not complete during his first term, making references to the Lonfay Town Hall, Vanyeamah Clinic, Weala Public School Annex, the renovation of the Perkins Farm Town Hall and some other projects.
Representative Gahr noted that achieving all the following together requires carefulness like when one plays a checker game where the players push their checker seeds time by time to avoid spoiling or losing the game or being entrapped.
While speaking during the presentation, the leader of the cyclists under the banner, the “United Borlorla Parking Motorcyclists For The Reelection Of Hon Clarence G Gahr”, Emmanuel Moses appreciated the lawmaker for his effort in delivering his campaign promise to them.
According to him, the lawmaker committed himself to giving them twenty motorcycles if they stood by him during the 2023 elections and they did but after the elections, there were a lot of misinformation they heard that discouraged some of his colleagues.
How be it, the cyclists, he said are very glad to see the 20 new motorbikes made available to them in line with the agreement Representative Clarence G. Gahr.
He called on the lawmaker to do more for them as they will continue to support his leadership.
