Afric Daily Newspaper; Monrovia- Government to lose hundreds of Millions United dollars as her mandate through the Liberia Revenue Authority LRA to impose that every alcoholic beverage sold in Liberia carries a special sticker is being undermined for self gratification by Men only Identified as Roosevelt T. Wilson who claims to be a Senior Inspector at the LRA
The implementation of the stickers which started about three months later with the amount of US$150,000 fine for non compliance is yielding no fruit as about 80% of the local and imported alcoholic beverages in the Market are sold with no LRA Stamp while Wilson is being used as a rescue boat
Unless Beer Factory beverages, the entire local and foreign beverages including: NICOM products, RITCO , L.R Distillery Lib. Inc., National Beverage Company and INBERIA M&T IMPEX among others have failed to Comply by the full mandate.
During the inquiring by Journalists with various Representatives from the above companies, all placed calls to Wilson , while he instructed them not to respond to anyone as Journalists have nothing to know about public law.
” I continue to tell you Journalists it’s not your business, go and write anything you want to write. I am Roosevelt Wilson the Senior Inspector of the Liberia Revenue Authority”, Wilson responded in an angry mood.
However, one of the dealers who conferred in Journalists but pleaded anonymity said, Wilson with his team of inspectors is receiving kickbacks to cover them up in the process.
Investigation Continues.
