Conditions In Bo Prison (This is not a Correctional Centre).

-

How can a society do this to its people? Look at the indignity and inhuman conditions. These pictures show that the whole claim of changing from Prisons to from Correctional Services was false and fake. Was just a change of name.

These people deserve dignity and justice. This is injustice. We must campaign for this dehumanizing conditions to end. In Sierra Leone only the poor go to jail. Look at the horrible conditions. We want justice for these prisoners.

Prison services must explain how come our people are living in such conditions. Is it that the Govt is not providing the funds to run the prison service? Or few bosses are chopping the resources? We need answers.

15 years of his death:  Legend Amara Kabba's legacy lives on Last Friday [22nd June] marked exactly 15 years since he departed this world. But Amara Shain Kabba, one of Sierra Leone’s all-time best musicians, left an indelible mark on the West African reggae scene hitting platinum in 2003 with what is perhaps his best album, ‘Confront It’. Amara was highly celebrated both in Sierra Leone and beyond. He lived in Holland where he recorded his album and later returned home with his family in May 2003, when his life tragically ended. The late musician’s wife and daughter were in Freetown last week to commemorate his death anniversary, which took place at the Negus Nagas Complex in Grafton.

Amara Kabba was born in 1962 in Makeni, northern Sierra Leone, to a Madingo father and a Temne mother. He was the second of three sons in the family. They grew up with their father – a comp...

Fatima Bio - The Woman! The Threat!

Fatima Bio is a force. I am fascinated by her in as much as I fear for her. Sierra Leone dances on the fringes of progressive democratic principles yet clearly panders to a paternalistic approach to governance where notions of civic autonomy, agency, empowerment and gender equity are severely loose ideologies. Ideologies, we enjoy picking up from time to time, off the mantle of global pressure, to engage with. Despite the immense efforts of local activists and a handful of civil servants who still believe in working for the greater social good, calls for strengthened public institutions, deepened commitment to eradicate extreme poverty and of course, my personal favorite, a push for gender equality as the basis for true economic and social transformation, remain unanswered.  Our country almost always halfheartedly responds to these demands and needs.  It is from this struggle that the emergence of  Fatima Bio  is unequivocally disruptive to the st...
