Alpha Kanu in Port Loko – you can’t fool all the people all the time

It’s one thing to go on some radio stations in Freetown early in the morning where some interviewees treat you with kid gloves and tell outright political lies and get away with it. It’s another thing to come face-to-face with the real people who will soon make that ultimate decision about your political future.

“Bouting” at STATE HOUSE EMBARRASSES De Pa

We still don’t know how was it came to pass that two people who are paid to keep the most important person in Sierra Leone safe, went into blows inside the fortified seat of power otherwise known as State House. We know De Pa was very embarrassed by the action of these two men who allowed the animalistic tendencies in them to overwhelm their sense of reasoning.

FORCE FOR GOOD – BUT HOW DO YOU COMMUNICATE?

We want to humbly plead with De Pa to bring back Keith Biddle, the British policeman who performed very well as the Inspector General of the Sierra Leone Police. Can DfID please help with any information about what this guy is up to now? We are absolutely sure he didn’t return to Greater Manchester Police as a Constabulary officer after that high profile job out here.

We have been counting down the weeks but effective today we are counting down the days to Decision 2012.

Oh Minister of Defence: A COLOSSAL ERROR OF JUDGEMENT.

We unreservedly condemn the action of the ex-soldiers who attacked defence minister Pallo Conteh the other day at the gates of his office in central Freetown. It was a truly shameful affair. But this incident presents us with an opportunity to raise a few issues yet again.

Le 100 MILLION LEONES – TO TRY YOUR LUCK, SAYS CHRISTIANA

We are still trying to calculate how Christiana arrived at her GENTRY MAN NOMINATION FEES figures of Le 100 Million as nomination fee for presidential candidates and Le 25 Million for parliamentary candidates. You see our lady is thinking in terms of big money, now that her new salary has defied all mathematical logic and the economic rationale for wage differentials. If these charges stood, only Christiana and Fitzgerald of ACC kingdom would enter the race with clean money.
