I read with keen interest the crusade mounted on and by the Exclusive newspaper on the current state of our all time youngest Head of State and Chairman of the National Provisional Ruling Council (NPRC) Captain Valentine Strasser. Did I hear you say he’s dying from hardship and neglect, hmmm what a pity? But what I don’t understand is how can a former Head of State who spent all his days in office busy garnering wealth for himself is broke in so short a time to the point of not being able to afford a day’s meal? I seriously think something is wrong somewhere. But let’s not be naive into trying to blame people or even the government for the state of Captain Strasser. The law of nature states that you reap what you sow you don’t plant lemon and expect to reap mango. That’s the law of retributive justice and remember the evil that men do no longer lives after them but rather with them. So what we should be doing now to help him is trace our minds back to the NPRC days and see where he as Chairman went wrong. What did he do and failed to do? |

As the 2012 elections draw near, it is time for Sierra Leoneans to take stock of their political history and decide where this country should be heading for. The political history of this country has been dominated by two parties, The APC and SLPP. The SLPP led Sierra Leone to independence and held power for the first 6 years after which it lost power and was in the doldrums for almost 30 years until it was led to victory in 1996. |

The intrusion into the privacy of Christiana Bull and Jonathan Bockarie is distasteful by every respect hence deserving of condemnation. If it were a case of an elected representative or a person in a position of trust who is accounted to the people and whose conduct – even in private - could affect the running of the country then there is reason to expose it.
