I also want the dove on the Seal to be replaced with the Pepper Bird. Liberia's National Bird needs to be given it's rightful place on the Coat of Arms of the Republic. And as I said earlier the Pepper Bird is that special bird in Liberia that wakes us up in the morning to do something worthwhile for society. If over the years we have ignored the call of the Pepper Bird, now is the time for Liberians to wake up and give true meaning to the plough and shovel that are emblazoned on the Seal.

The plough and the shovel, as we all know, represent what
Liberians need in order to be self sufficient. Our soil is rich. Feeding
ourselves should not cause a riot. The palm tree that represents every
productive tree in Liberia can give the cash we need to develop the people and
the shovel to build infrastructure.
The Love of Liberty Brought Us Here, the plough, the shovel,
the palm tree, are as Liberian as Liberian can be. We can keep
those.
The Pepper Bird must replace the dove.
