President Boakai Advances Liberia’s Industrial Agenda with Green Energy and Steel Expansion.

‎​MONROVIA – April 17, 2026, In a significant move toward sustainable industrialization, President Joseph Nyuma Boakai officially commissioned a new plastic recycling plant and broke ground for a major steel facility expansion at the Monrovia Industrial Park.

‎​The ceremony, attended by the Chairman of the National Investment Commission (NIC) and key government stakeholders, underscores the administration's commitment to the ARREST agenda (Agriculture, Roads, Rule of Law, Education, Sanitation, and Tourism) by fostering a climate conducive to private sector growth and environmental stewardship.

‎​A Dual Milestone for Economic Growth;
‎​The event highlighted two pivotal developments for Liberia’s manufacturing sector:
‎​Sustainable Waste Management: The inauguration of the plastic recycling plant marks a critical step in addressing urban pollution. By converting plastic waste into reusable materials, the facility is expected to create "green jobs" while mitigating the environmental impact of non-biodegradable waste in the capital.

‎​Infrastructure & Steel Expansion: The groundbreaking for the steel facility expansion signals rising investor confidence. This project aims to increase domestic production capacity, reducing the nation’s reliance on imported construction materials and bolstering the local supply chain.

‎​Strengthening Investor Confidence;
‎​The presence of the National Investment Commission (NIC) Chairman highlighted the strategic coordination between the Liberian government and private investors. During the proceedings, the NIC emphasized its role in streamlining processes to ensure that the Monrovia Industrial Park remains a competitive hub for regional trade and manufacturing.

‎​"These projects represent more than just industrial milestones; they are a testament to our resolve to transform Liberia into a hub of production rather than just consumption."
‎​Strategic Impact
‎​The expansion of these facilities is projected to provide:
‎​Job Creation: Hundreds of skilled and unskilled positions for Liberian youth.

‎​Economic Diversification: Strengthening the industrial base beyond traditional raw material exports.

‎​Environmental Protection: Promoting a circular economy through advanced recycling technologies.

‎​By aligning industrial expansion with environmental consciousness, President Boakai’s administration continues to signal that Liberia is open for business—specifically, business that is sustainable, inclusive, and forward-looking.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

National Investment Commission Responds to Allegations Regarding Waste Management Procurement.

Monrovia, Liberia — March 3, 2026
The National Investment Commission (NIC) has taken note of a publication by FrontPage Africa authored by Madam Fanta Kamara alleging improprieties involving its Executive Director and other stakeholders in connection with an ongoing waste management procurement process.

The Commission categorically rejects the allegations as false, misleading, and entirely blackmailing. The NIC further cautions that it reserves all legal rights with respect to defamatory and unsupported publications.

The publication’s assertions of bribery, travel-related misconduct, and financial impropriety appear designed to damage reputation rather than present facts. The NIC encourages responsible journalism and emphasizes that allegations of this magnitude require credible evidence.

For the avoidance of doubt, public procurement and concession-related matters are conducted in accordance with the Public Procurement and Concessions framework and are managed through established inter-ministerial and statutory processes designed to ensure transparency and accountability.

Where credible improprieties arise, the appropriate oversight institutions — including the Liberia Anti-Corruption Commission (LACC), the Public Procurement and Concessions Commission (PPCC), and other competent authorities — remain available to review and investigate based on verifiable evidence.
The NIC remains committed to transparency, due process, and institutional integrity in all its undertakings.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE!

National Investment Commission Clarifies Status of Hotel Africa Property.

Monrovia, Liberia – February 25, 2026 — The National Investment Commission (NIC) wishes to clarify recent public discussions concerning the Hotel Africa Property.

The NIC categorically states that at no time has the Commission recognized, appointed, endorsed, or authorized any individual or entity as a developer for the Hotel Africa Property outside of the established Government processes.

The Government of Liberia, through the Inter-Ministerial Concessions Committee (IMCC), is currently engaged in structured discussions with a potential developer in accordance with framework and applicable laws governing public assets.

The public is hereby informed that there is a defined statutory process for acquiring rights, entering into negotiations, or claiming any form of partnership with the Government of Liberia regarding national assets. This process includes formal submission, due diligence, inter-agency review, and where applicable, legislative ratification.

Any individual or entity claiming to represent, negotiate, or develop the Hotel Africa Property without formal authorization through the Government’s established channels does so independently and without the knowledge or approval of the National Investment Commission.

Accordingly, the NIC advises all investors, financial institutions, contractors, and members of the public to exercise due diligence. Any engagement with unauthorized persons purporting to act on behalf of the Government of Liberia regarding the Hotel Africa Property shall be undertaken strictly at the engaging party’s own risk.

Liberia Strengthens Global Investment Partnerships at Dubai Strategic Engagement

The Republic of Liberia, under the leadership of His Excellency President Joseph Nyuma Boakai, Sr., continues to advance its economic diplomacy and private-sector-led growth agenda following a successful Strategic Investment Engagement held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

The mission was led by Her Excellency Mrs. Kartumu Yarta Boakai, First Lady of the Republic of Liberia, and brought together international investors from the UAE, India, and other global markets to explore structured investment partnerships across Liberia’s priority sectors.

The engagement reaffirmed a critical reality:

Liberia does not lack investor interest.

Discussions covered major opportunities in energy, mining value addition, logistics, agribusiness, healthcare infrastructure, and manufacturing. Among the expressions of interest were proposals related to large-scale energy partnerships, a potential gold refinery initiative aligned with Liberia’s value-addition strategy, and concepts aimed at strengthening the country’s role as a regional trade and distribution hub.

Her Excellency the First Lady emphasized Liberia’s political stability, commitment to the rule of law, and the Government’s focus on transparency, institutional strengthening, and policy continuity. She reaffirmed that Liberia welcomes responsible investment that creates jobs, strengthens communities, and contributes to national transformation.

The National Investment Commission (NIC) presented Liberia’s structured investment framework, highlighting:

100% foreign ownership in most sectors

Full repatriation of capital and profits

Competitive fiscal incentives

Special Economic Zones

A transparent four-step investment pathway requiring formal Expressions of Interest and Inter-Ministerial Concessions Committee review

The tone of the engagement was forward-looking and disciplined. No commitments were made outside established Government procedures, reinforcing Liberia’s commitment to responsible and accountable investment governance.

Importantly, the dialogue evolved beyond identifying opportunities to addressing implementation.

As discussed during the engagement, many investment projects in emerging markets do not fail due to lack of capital appetite. They falter when investor expectations and institutional processes are not aligned at the outset.

In Dubai, that alignment was prioritized.

Structured follow-up, technical due diligence, and adherence to national processes were clearly communicated as essential steps toward converting investor interest into bankable projects.

The mission demonstrated Liberia’s growing credibility as a stable and reform-oriented economy positioned as a gateway to the ECOWAS region and broader West African market.

The Government of Liberia will now engage interested parties through formal channels to ensure that proposals are evaluated rigorously, transparently, and in full alignment with national development priorities.

Liberia remains open for business — not through haste, but through structured partnership.

The future of Liberia’s economic growth will depend not only on opportunity, but on readiness — and in Dubai, Liberia demonstrated both.
