ADMINISTRATIVE INFIGHTING AT SLMA DRAWS IN PRINCIPAL

The Sierra Leone Maritime Administration is a very troubled institution. In the last two years we have witnessed sackings, anti-corruption raids, court cases and a systems review. We have also witnessed the suspension and eventual sacking of another Executive Director. There is a new guy warming up to take over – the third in two years. And now Principal has ordered an administrative inquiry into the SLMA and suspended half a dozen senior staff in the process.

THE “MAD MAN” AT CONGO CROSS AND PRINCIPAL’S CONVOY

This is difficult to believe but it did happen on Wednesday evening as Principal’s convoy made the normal journey through Congo Cross heading home from work. How a so-called “mad man” came to disrupt the movement of the last vehicle in the convoy is something we should investigate. These days we shouldn’t take anything at face value.  Given the speed with which the presidential convey moves, Principal’s vehicle was probably at Lumley Police station when the incident happened near Vine Memorial School.

TWO YEARS IN THE CHAIR: ALL HAIL MAYOR OF THE SUN

Mayor of the SUN was on social media the other day marking the second year of her reign over the good people of Freetown. We congratulate you dear Mayor and we pray that the almighty God will continue to bless you and your family and indeed the staff of the FCC and all the people of Freetown. We are quite sure we would have had some big celebration at Victoria Park if the coronavirus hadn’t suddenly appeared in Freetown from the Far East and changed our lives. Anyway congratulations!
