Three workers for the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) are confirmed as missing after driving into an area of unrest near the Liberian-Ivory Coast border.
Emmanuel Sharpolu, ADRA Liberia director; Kaare Lund, ADRA Norway director; and Musa Kita, ADRA’s driver, were headed to a Norwegian-funded project in Toe Town. The remains of their burned-out vehicle were positively identified by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), ADRA’s implementing partner.
Efforts are underway to locate the three ADRA workers, but continued unrest in the area poses a challenge.
Providing individual and community development and disaster relief without regard to political or religious association, age or ethnicity, ADRA is present in more than 125 countries.
