Liberian Lawmaker Slams ‘Disgraceful’ Bridge Infrastructure in Sasstown

Rep. J. Fonati Koffa has criticized as disgraceful the Bridge Partnership Schools for Liberia's infrastructure in Sasstown. “Bridge PSL currently operates schools in 8 districts across Maryland and Grand Kru Counties. (…) Bridge came under fire in March when some 88 civil society organizations urged investors to cease their support for the multinational for-profit chain of private schools Bridge International Academies (BIA), which runs over 500 schools in Kenya, Liberia, Nigeria, Uganda, and India. These organizations are calling investors' attention to a series of concerning practices by BIA and the associated legal and reputational risks they incur.”
