PRESIDENT
JULIUS MAADA BIO WILL END FOOD INSECURITY IN SIERRA LEONE, AND EVEN THE
OPPOSITION FORCES ARE AWARE OF THIS.
Anyone who knows President Bio for keeping his
word will never have any doubts about anything he says. Let's look at some historical
evidence to see if his pledge to always stand by his words can be supported.
When Siaka Stevens' APC implemented one-party
rule, Sierra Leone turned into a place where everyone suffered, especially
those who opposed the terror regime. Nothing that the Bible and the Quran
mention as being a punishment in hell was not unleashed on the people of Sierra
Leone by the dangerously-run One Party State government.
The one-party state agenda was undoubtedly a
typical form of government adopted by the majority of African countries to
encourage political stability for a continuous administration of state
activities. Many African nations took advantage of the chance to lay down
tangible development pillars for their nations, particularly in terms of
infrastructure development. Contrarily, the Siaka Stevens and Momoh-led APC
one-party states ruined every aspect of the nation's development and tormented
Sierra Leoneans using the systems.
In their book "Why Nations Fail: The
Origins of Power, Property, and Poverty" by Daron Acemoglu and James A.
Robinson, some renowned economists’ authors were forced to address the
systematic destruction of infrastructure that Sierra Leone encountered. I won't
go into great detail about what the book says, but I will suggest that you read
it. Check the book ....Why nations Fail
A significant portion of Sierra Leoneans had to
rebel against the government on the basis of that tragic foundation, and
dramatically, some military personnel had to intervene and topple the
government. The mission also included President Julius Maada Bio.
In a nutshell, the military intervened to
overthrow the government for reasons other than partisanship. Instead, it did
so for the benefit of the nation as a whole. More than 70% of the people in the
country at the time supported the transition, particularly a democratic one in
which everyone would be able to participate.
Let's get back to the argument for why President Julius Maada Bio is someone who consistently keeps his word. In the beginning of the NPRC's involvement, they pledged to destroy the One-Party State of governance, rule for a brief period, and then return power to civilian authority. Some of his colleagues wanted to ignore the deal and hold onto power longer than was intended. He, President Bio, and a few other heroic troops invaded, toppled their own government,
Let's talk about the recent past. In 2018,
President Bio pledged to implement free, quality education if he won the
election. a pledge that some journalists and the then-incumbent party believed
to be unattainable and interpreted as one of their standard political song
lyrics.
Fortunately, when President Julius Maada Bio won
the election, he wasted no time putting the Free Quality Education program into
action. Despite the project's difficulties, this free service has helped a lot
of Sierra Leoneans and continues to do so. It has also significantly increased
the number of students enrolled in school. The advantages of this FQE are significant
for the future of this nation.
However, President Bio didn't just concentrate
on the FQE as a lone initiative to bring about advancement in our country. He
put systems in place to improve agriculture during his first term in office.
due to his conviction that food security and education go hand in hand. And
because he is a "Talk and Do" President, he has pledged to provide
for the country food sufficiency. This is not the typical political rhetoric
you've heard from other politicians; rather, it is a pledge that has been in
the works for a very long time and is now ready to be carried out.
To witness the spectacular shift in food
security and sustainability, we hope that everyone will remain calm and
patriotic. President Julius Maada Bio's promise would undoubtedly be kept.
