Celebrations went into late Sunday evening in Makeni after host team Wusum Stars beat highly fancied Bo Rangers 1-0 in the Sierra Leone football Premier  league.

Wusum scored midway in the first half from a goalkeeping blunder. The Bo Rangers goalie had all the time to clear a back pass but held on to the ball until he was dispossessed and the ball easily slotted home. It was a howler that shocked the highly confident travelling fans.

In the match against SLIFA, Saidu Fofanah's second half goal was enough to give FC Kallon the victory to top the Sierra Leone Premier League table once again.

The Cavaliers dominated  the second half as SLIFA went three games winless (L2, D1).

FC Kallon were struggling to make a breakthrough until Ibrahim Mansaray picked Fofanah out who headed the ball over SLIFA's goalie to secure league table authority.

This is the Cavaliers' second win after beating Ports Authority 3-1 in the league opener followed by two draws against Old Edwardians and Wusum Stars.

After suffering two defeats at the hands of Bo Rangers and lowly Freetown City respectively, East End Lions received a further blow on Thursday 6^th April 2021 when the premier league ruled against them in their abandoned match against newly promoted Bai Bureh Warriors.

According to a statement signed by the chairman of the Premier League Board Allieu Vandy Koroma, three points and three goals will be awarded to Bai Bureh Warriors and the former champions, East End Lions will also pay a fine of two million five hundred thousand Leones.

The Sierra Leone Football Association (SLFA) has lost its appeal against the decision by the AFCON Organizing Committee to have Leone Stars match against Benin postponed to the international window in June.

Watching the football match from between Bo Rangers and east Ends Lions tells a lot of story. Since the emergence of the PAOPA Bo has become loosened, well as not tight as everyone knows. There are several reasons but the exception that electricity will be immediately restored is the topmost

Many are not satisfied with the number of Bo people appointed into key positions. It is for that reason the people of Bo are somehow giving some kind of distance (anas-length) to the present PAOPA system that is believed to be their (Bo) System
