In Sierra Leone’s eastern Kailahun District, local authorities are sparing no efforts to keep the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) at bay, following the latest outbreak in Guinea.

Kailahun shares border with Guinea’s forest region – Nzerekore – from where the virus crossed into Sierra Leone in 2014, as part of what became the worst Ebola epidemic in history. The same region is home to the epicenter of the current outbreak – Gouecke.

In our beloved motherland, there is hardly anybody that would want to be in the bad books of the other person especially where there is a power relationship; even if we know that what the other person is doing is outright wrong. We have developed a penchant for allowing bad things to fester in our country for lack of courage to speak the truth even if it is in love.
