Executive Mansion, Monrovia-President Joseph Nyuma Boakai, Sr. today launched the Performance Management and Compliance System (PMCS) at the EJS Ministerial Complex in Congo Town.
The event, attended by high-ranking government officials, development partners, and stakeholders, marks an important step in Liberia’s commitment to fostering a transparent and efficient government.
In his launching address, President Boakai emphasized that the PMCS embodies Liberia’s dedication to responsible and accountable governance.
“The launch of the PMCS signifies not just the introduction of a new system but the strengthening of a major commitment: our dedication to delivering effective and accountable government for every Liberian citizen.” President Boakai said.
The PMCS is central to the Administration’s ARREST agenda, focusing on accountability, responsiveness, and responsible governance. The system sets clear performance standards for ministries, agencies, and commissions, enabling real-time monitoring and accountability.
“We want our citizens to see a government that listens, responds, and delivers,” President Boakai said, reinforcing the Administration’s resolve to enhance public trust and service delivery.
Addressing current allegations and public concerns about corruption, President Boakai assured Liberians that the Government would uphold integrity, addressing any accusations based on due process and factual evidence. “Our approach will be vigilant and thorough, but also fair, ensuring that due process is upheld as we address any allegations of corruption.” He added. He called for public patience while reiterating his Administration’s zero tolerance for misuse of public office.
The President further acknowledged the critical role of Liberia’s development partners, including the United Nations Development Programme, in bringing the PMCS to fruition. He noted that the system’s success would rely on the collaborative commitment of every public servant and partner.
This launch signals the beginning of Liberia’s journey toward a culture of ethical governance.
President Boakai urged all Liberians to support the initiative: “Let us move forward with determination, knowing that today marks a turning point in our journey toward good governance, integrity, and accountability.”
The PMCS will hold public officials accountable, ensuring resources are used effectively, and promises to the Liberian people are fulfilled. The Administration calls upon public servants, development partners, and the citizens of Liberia to embrace this new era of accountability and work collectively toward the vision of a better Liberia.
