‘’Your hard times are over. Your poverty is finish. When I become President of this nation, I Whapoe will make farmer millionaires. You have listen to my platforms which included human capacity empowerment, healthcare, education and better economy through agriculture and food production. However, I will ensure that farmers are empowered and they will produce enough until we will export to other country that will make them millionaires’’ Dr. Whapoe assured Liberia.

He said that Liberia is spending more money on the importation of food then the health and education of its citizens only because the country has a government that is not farsighted and don’t see agriculture and food production as medicine for food insecurity.

He cautioned the women to participate in the upcoming election, adding that if they participate and believe they all can win the election and removes the current nightmare that the country is in.

‘’ Liberia is divided. And so, we need somebody to unify us. Somebody that will bring all of us together and forget about tribalism. Today, all we see is hate and ethnicity in this government because the country has a head of state who is not interested in unity and progress’’ Dr. Whapoe pointed out.
