Unisa, you would have gave an eye witness report since the event took place right in front of your face, rather than just a scanty comment. We know APC are at their games again. This is a party of violence. The word democracy does not exist in their vocabulary. The leadership will order police to perpetuate violence on the opposition, and then come out to denounce violence to satisfy the international community. The International community are begining to know Ernest Koroma’s true colour.

Violence for the sake of politics?! Why am not surprise? Will somebody please educate these fools? They don’t start to benefit anything except misery! In the end, it doesn’t matter which political party wins, things are not going to get better overnight! Sierra Leone still has a very long way to go in terms of…. EVERYTHING! Trust me, violence will only take us back deeper into dinosaur age! What a shame!

Strange how news get reported in Sierra Leone. This event happened right in my neighbourhood but what i see here is in many ways out of context. What has happened to objective journalism in Sierra Leone?
