Deadly fights broke out between supporters of Maada Bio and Usman Boie Kamara (both being flagbearer aspirants of the main opposition Sierra Leone People's Party), at the party's Wallace Johnson Street Headquarters today.
Though the general atmosphere at the SLPP headquarters remained tense during the entire course of the day with various supporters of aspiring flagbearers raining abusive languages against each other, the actual fights started at about 3:30pm, when supporters of Maada Bio physically attacked Usman Boie Kamara in his vehicle, while the latter was leaving the party offices in the wake of a lunch break in the meeting of various stakeholders of the party that was being held at the Freetown headquaters of the party.
Teargas cannisters were fired by the police to disperse the rioters.
Several people have been injured and hospitalised.
More details in due course.

What was it all about? Is it that serious or something else?
ReplyDeleteThey have started to fail themselves right from the start oh God
ReplyDeleteMaada Bio is leading his way to disgrace. He has been quiet for some time and that seemed to be good for him; now that he has coosen to implore violence, he is dragging himself to the normal disgrace norm of African leaders. Shame!!!1 Shame!!! Shame!!! on Maada Bio.
ReplyDeleteOoops I have just been informed that SLPP is sleeping on their wing. The whole thing is undermined by the APC. I will bring that side of the story pretty soon; that is when i have been given the full story on how it is happening.
I disagree to believe that Bio is pursuing the path of violence. I reckoned what is happening in the SLPP is an ominous sign for positivity. Lets watch and see!
ReplyDeleteAre we not learning from those who brought democratie to the continent? They're not fighting agaist themselve but work side by side. They share even power...
ReplyDeleteWhen we go learn for goodness sakes?
ReplyDeleteNever ! Dem all nar krute ! uncivilised , inbred fools. Wai purson nor men good , watin u expect. Call me a snob , but rich or poor has nothing to do with how you were raised as a child. They are just demonstrating the kind of parents , who raised them. Tell them , I said so.
