DE PA IS BACK – HURRAY!
Huh! We hear De Pa is back in Freetown after that long and exhausting tour of the Eastern Region. Welcome back sir. So how did it go? We have seen some pictures on facebook and in some of our newspapers. We suppose you are used to being told how great and omniscient a leader you are. Every leader likes to hear that. Why should you be different?
THE SHOOT TO KILL APPROACH OF THE SALONE POLICE
Even as we write we still can’t tell how many people were killed or wounded when the police tried to put down demonstrations by worker at the African Minerals mining site at Ferengbeya and the general area of Bumbuna. That in itself is a very serious matter.

PMDC AND PRIVATE MILITIAS
The Dalai Lama woke up from along self-induced coma the other day and immediately called a news conference. We were among those invited. It was great to once again hear those long and rambling speeches from the Dalai Lama. We left the place convinced that the guy has a lot of catching up to do. He put his former allies to the sword and gave some hints about what he meant by PLAN B when he pontificated at the last SLPP elective conference.
UNIVERSITY OF SIERRA LEONE GRADUATION
We congratulate all our brothers and sisters who finally shook hands with De Pa at the amphitheatre last weekend to mark the end of their academic sojourn on Mount Olympus...we know that for some it’s only phase one as they will be going into other programmes in the same institutions. God be with them.
