Funny how African leaders blame Africa's underdevelopment on slavery but when they are given an opportunity to fix things, they treat their own people worse. You can't even speak up without consequences? #Salone @DembyAustin What did Dr. Jeredine George do wrong? Speaking out?
I had the distinct honor of serving as the Keynote Speaker at the inauguration ceremony for the newly elected student body of the University of Makeni's Political Science Student Association. #UNESCO #SDGs @UNSierraLeone @UNYouthAffairs @UNDPSierraLeone @USEmbFreetown @IREXintl
It's always an honorable thing to serve diligently. @IREXintl @cspecairex @CIVICUSalliance @deidrecombs @USEmbFreetown @UNYouthAffairs @UNSierraLeone @unitedpeople36 @ecowas_cedeao @FAOAfrica @UKinSierraLeone @gnwp_gnwp @ypbuilders @rightscon @IrlEmbFreetown
"Together, we can overcome the forces of division and build a nation where every voice is heard, every tribe respected, and every Sierra Leonean feels part of a shared destiny". #StopTribalBigotry #OneSierraLeone #PeaceLoveUnity
Thank you for lending your voice H.E. Amb. Hunt @USEmbFreetown. #Peace cannot exist without #Justice, justice cannot exist without #fairness, fairness breeds development, development cannot exist without democracy, democracy cannot exist without respect for Human rights & dissent
"This is not merely a career path; it is a calling, a mission to leave the world a little brighter, a little more just, a little more empowered than I found it. Eleven years in, and the fire within me burns brighter than ever". - HBBangura
I am not certain what is the motivation behind such but fanning the flames of #tribalism, #regionalism, #hatred and #war is enough to send chills down our spines. Wars don't start with a gun shot nor does hatred from fighting each other. Peace cannot be kept by force....
‘MRU Secretariat condemns this unlawful act by individuals who wish to destabilize the hard earned peace in Sierra Leone and within the MRU sub-region.’

Our presence as International Observers does add credence to the electoral process as we could notice the excitement of the voters as expressed on our arrival at every polling center (precinct) visited. #LiberiaDecides2023

awokonewspaper.sl/sl-youth-leade… It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership. -Nelson Mandela-
I am pleased to announce that I have been elected to serve on the US States Department Community Solutions Program Alumni Board (Peace & Conflict Resolution) Representative. Congratulations 👏🎉
Evil can only thrive where good men/women sit still and do nothing.
Thank you for being courageous 🙏 Courage to me is doing something daring, no matter how afraid, insecure, intimidated, alone, unworthy, incapable, ridiculed or whatever other paralyzing emotion you might feel. Sierra Leone is indebted to you. #Democracy must win!
