In recent years there has been a proliferation of youth teams in the country especially in the Western Area. Some of them have been ad-hoc and short-lived, while a few others have demonstrated serious potential to improve and rise to the highest level in Sierra Leonean football.

Imagine you are watching a program on your television set and the pictures begin to blur. Then all of a sudden the screen goes blind and you soon realize there is no available channel. This situation is what Sierra Leoneans will find themselves in if urgent and proactive action is not taken by the government to meet the global deadline set by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) on Digital Migration.

Please help out in accessing the strength of the present day society as compared to those of yesteryears. What is it like today would you say? More or less trustworthy, helpful, punctual or responsible? Is it more reliable or better organised? I think things are getting worse.

Agreed that President Siaka Stevens was the founding father of the A.P.C. and the man who championed a lot of infrastructural development in Sierra Leone. The man who shared wealth with most of his family members and friends including his drivers, cleaners, cooks, security guards, etc. All enjoyed the acquisition of wealth.

However, he still had his demerits as a dictator who would accuse anyone critical of him of treason, and whose elimination could be manipulated to bring about their demise.

We will always have people to admire, respect and appreciate for what they are able to do in their various endeavours of life to promote the general good, sometimes at the expense of their livelihood, and family, and indeed against very big odds. For their bravery, selflessness, and resilience, others will have the chance to live and be.

But I’m still struggling not just with the translation but also with grasping the rationale behind the saying which has become both a common saying and a comfort zone for especially losers in a game or a match.
