Well, I had no clue what the National County Meet was all about so I asked a good friend of my family named Mr. JWK (Abbreviation) who is currently living in Liberia about the County Meet:
He told me that the County Meet is a yearly sports meet for all counties in Liberia to participate in sports such as (Football, Kickball, Basketball, Volleyball, Track and Field, etc). Some games were played in various counties and different venues but the semi final and final game were scheduled at the Samuel Kanyon Doe (SKD) sports complex in Monrovia but the final game was over crowded with supporters, causing the fence near the stadium wing to be broken by fans to get on the perimeter of the field.
Also, I asked him whether or not the fans were being prevented from running on the Perimeter of the field:
He said yes that they were being prevented from going on the perimeter of the field but heads broke loose and they force their way unto the perimeter the only thing the security personnel could do was to allowed them finally and restricted them.
I then asked him after the fans broke the stadium wing and got unto the Perimeter of the field was the security personnel able to control the crowd:
He told me that the security personell did extremely well by controlling the crowd after they got on the field, security personnel restrained them, which was properly managed by Liberia Black Belt holder in Taekwondo.
I also asked him what advice would he give:
He said that ticket be sold per seat to avoid over crowdedness.
I also asked if he would attend the event (County Meet at SKD) next year and what would he do different he said: Yes he would attend another event but will go for VIP or near VIP not stadium wing or around the field.
Thats All Folks!
