The situation in the Freetown city as at present can best be described as chaotic. Vehicular and human traffic has served as major frustration to citizens and foreign visitors alike.
The week-long holiday declared by the government is being celebrated in all nook and cranny of the country.
The beach bars, guest houses, pubs and clubs are jam-packed with people from all walks of life.
The country is celebrating both the Easter and Independence holidays simultaneously with pomp and pageantry, though amid hardship.
The Independence beach fiesta which commenced on Saturday 23rd April 2011 was jam packed with people.
Cars have no parking space; human beings nearly subjected themselves to stampede; and even the featured musicians that were scheduled to perform struggled their way to the stage.
Mask devils and various traditional performers are everywhere displaying their various crafts.
President Koroma will present various awards to deserving citizens tomorrow at State House.
This is the present situation in Freetown. News Hunters will bring u photos of the various events in due course.
