Integrity Idol Profile: Musa Dorley, Community Chairman

Today’s featured Integrity Idol finalist, Musa Dorley, was born and raised in Bonjeh, Bomi County where he is now a community chairman, and he is determined to see the community thrive.

For this purpose, he made sure a clinic was built, which has drastically improved health outcomes in Bonjeh. During the Ebola crisis, Dorley commissioned a team to spread awareness and ensure that they went to health facilities, despite the widespread fear.

In addition to these initiatives, Musa established a savings club for the women of Bojeh so that they could become financially independent. “I need to do more. The more I help other people, the more help I will receive” he says: “A man of integrity is a man of his word.”
