The Eagle Eye Newsmagazine comes to the Liberian Media landscape with a singular mission – championing and promoting national growth, development and expansion through critical analyses of core issues. It takes critical looks at public and private policy prescriptions, critiques them and puts forward realistic options to serve the national interests. It draws on knowledge of experts in their respective fields; affords students opportunities to pen their thoughts on national issues; provides the general public a window into living conditions of citizens, particularly those resident in rural communities and underprivileged administrative districts.
In a nutshell, this platform aims at challenging and encouraging those who are educated and possess broad outlooks and associated attributes to compete with their peers in other parts of the world. Eagle Eye believes all men and women are endowed with the same mental faculties, with capability of developing them into skills for advanced social and intellectual applications. What separates one group from another, however, is how much substantive time and efforts are dedicated toward developing these attributes. Essentially, applying them to the right causes for uplifting communities is indeed the overarching challenge!
In pursuit of this objective, Eagle Eye asks two simple questions: “Don’t Liberians possess the same mental faculties as humans in other societies across the globe?” Assuming the answer to be in the affirmative, “Why is Liberia not developing at the same pace and level as other countries endowed with similar comparative advantages?” These twin questions shall constitute the core direction of this Paper, thereby exploring new frontiers for development.
