There were scenes of jubilations across the Freetown city today when the Sierra Leone Road Transport Corporation (SLRTC) put on display twelve new buses that recently arrived in the country to ease the challenges associated with transportation in the country.
Shortly after the buses were removed from the Queen Elizabeth Quay II, they were lined up and toured along major streets in Freetown amid jubilations from petty traders, biker riders and passersby among others.

When will SLRTC buy themselves buses like Abess and others do? the last batch was from Libya's Ghadaffi. These ones are on loan from ECOBANK. Interest rates are usually very high. I hope the jubilation did not take a political turn like Ghadaffi's buses did. God! salone! Gosh!
ReplyDeleteBut at least it will greatly help in transportation problem though not enough.Moreover its a loan as you said not gift, for me e bete dan receiving gift all d tem
ReplyDeleteOne of the areas our government should invest in is public transportation. It's pathetically painful to see government ministers and other public officials driving SUVs and other cars that cost tens of thousands of dollars while the poor and suffering taxpayers scramble every minute for transport to and from work or their business places.
ReplyDeleteThat will be the time when you UMARU will decided to be the sacrificial lamb for us all not only the journalist. count on me and i surely will put my name and reputation on the line.
ReplyDeleteAnd why is Ernest's face all over the bus? Reminds me of Siaka Steven's face all over the Leones. When can we stop politicizing public properties and institutions. I am sure some politically appointed ZEALOT is finding ways to pay back the boss.And Ghadafi fooling a people and a nation with buses is a disgrace i will always remember.
