Philosophical and/or political views
Says Rev. Dr. Charles L. Kennedy Rev. Dr. Charles L. Kennedy, Chairman, Founder and Chief Executive Officer

(CEO) of the African-American Business Foundation International (AABF) has said that the Land Rights Act that was signed by President George M. Weah

in September of 2018 will greatly benefit indigenous Liberians. AABF is a non-profit organization that seeks to develop businesses, academics

and projects both local, national and international. Rev. Kennedy is also the founder and senior pastor of the Glorious Church, established in Tampa, Florida in 1980.

According to him, in the past the indigenous people found it very difficult to prosper from their lands due to marginalization by government officials who were perceived as the richer citizens in the Liberian society.Speaking upon his arrival in Liberia at the Roberts International Airport,Rev. Kennedy said, “Gone are the days when the original owners (indigenous)

of the land have been left behind in terms of development because people took their lands and used it for their own gain to make them richer and richer.

This has left the indigenous to live in poverty but they will finally take full ownership of their land.”The Land Rights Act clearly asserts the right to what is known as “customary

land,” territory for rural communities that can be claimed through oral testimony and community agreement. The Land Rights Act categorized land

ownership into four; public land, private land, customary land, and government land.Quoting the Holy Bible, Rev. Kennedy said, “The last shall be the first

and the first shall be the last”, asserting that the indigenous people shall now have full ownership of their land, as stipulated in the Land Rights Law.

According to him, since the establishment of the country, the indigenous have been left outside the governance process.

“The indigenous have never prospered from their land since 1822. When they formed the Republic of Liberia in 1847, they left the indigenous outside of the governance process,” he added. The US-based clergyman, who has an interest to invest in Liberia, is

partnering with the New Creation Christian Fellowship (NCCF) in Liberia, headed by Rev. Francis Baby Vincent, to bring development opportunities

for rural citizens in the areas of health, education, agriculture and infrastructural developments. The project seeks to mobilize rural people

to donate 300,000 acres of lands in each of the fifteen counties of Liberia.Rev. Kennedy said that God has instructed him to work with rural Liberians to improve their lives.

“We have met with powerful people and they are ready to come to Liberia to work in changing the lives of people,” he told the crowd that came to receive him at the RIA.At his arrival,clan chiefs, town chiefs, paramount chiefs, zoes, youth,

women and men from the fifteen counties, clad in their respective traditionalattires, holding both Liberian and American flags, and welcoming Rev. Kennedy with traditional songs.
