Big Fish incident, a lesson for Sierra Leoneans By: Kembay Those always clamouring for War after seen yesterday random shooting on Charlotte and Lightfoot Boston Streets in Freetown by a desperado should now know such is just a tip of an ice bag in a warfare.  Big Fish after forcefully snatching, the riffle from the female police officer didn't go on looking out for APC or SLPP but was determine to shoot at anyone who dare stand his way irrespective of your political loyalty, Religious trait, tribal or Regional connection.  The few minutes he spent with the gun while moving up an down, saw almost all the streets in CBD deserted with everyone indoor except the security forces who were positioning themselves at intersections point to end the menace.  What caused the desertion and the indoor staying was that everyone knew that either by mistake or intention coming in contact with Big Fish at that moment, would have been your end.

President Bio arrived in Vietnam

According to statehouse Communications Unit 
President Julius Maada Bio of Sierra Leone has arrived in Vietnam to discuss bilateral cooperation and trade facilitation.

Monday, March 14, 2022, in Hanoi, Vietnam. His Excellency President Dr Julius Maada Bio arrived in Hanoi, the capital of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, on the invitation of His Excellency Nguyen Xuan Phuc, who initiated bilateral cooperation discussions between the two countries.

When they met at the 76th United Nations General Assembly in New York on September 23, 2021, the Vietnamese President extended an invitation to President Bio, praising his ability to maintain political and social stability in the resource-rich West African nation and thanking him for his kind words on Vietnam's development.

President Xuan Phuc formally invited President Bio to visit his country on the sidelines of the UN meeting of leaders, and expressed a desire for the two countries to establish diplomatic relations.


“I am confident that under your leadership the cooperation will grow stronger and stronger. I am looking forward to welcoming you to Vietnam,” he said some six months ago.

President Bio had accepted the invitation and noted at the time that: “I accept the invitation very kindly, and I am delighted for the series of proposals to establish cooperation between our two countries”. Both Presidents had also agreed on exploring trade and investment opportunities.

His visit will be focused on six key areas, including signing a rice supply agreement, investing in mechanized farming capacity building, and providing technical expertise to the value chain in fish production, among others.

Vietnam's exports to Sierra Leone have increased at an annualised rate of 14.6 percent over the last 18 years, from $854,000 in 2000 to $9.9 million in 2018. In the year 2020, Vietnam shipped an estimated $348 billion worth of goods around the world.


Vietnam is an ideal export hub for countries like Sierra Leone to reach members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations because of its strategic location for foreign companies with operations throughout Southeast Asia.

The First Lady Fatima Bio, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Professor John Francis, Chief Minister, Jacob Jusu Saffa, Minister of Agriculture, Dr Abu Bakarr Karim, Minister of Trade and Industry, Dr Edward Sandy, Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources, Honourable Emma Kowa-Jalloh, and Minister of Planning and Economic Development, Dr Francis Kaikai, are among those accompanying the President.

Dr. John Idriss Lahai, the whistle-blower for fake degrees is "Social Medially dead".

Dr. John Idriss Lahai, the whistle-blower for fake degrees is "Social Medially dead". If you recall, in the year 2022, Dr. John Idriss Lahai, a whistle-blower who exposed a phony degree, attracted the attention of every patriotic Sierra Leonean. His activity came to light after it was found that numerous Sierra Leoneans had received honorary PhDs from a Waterloo, Western Rural District postsecondary institution that was not accredited. Even well-known Sierra Leoneans, including the previous Inspector General of Police, were given honorary PhDs by the university known as Dominion University. When it was determined that the aforementioned university lacks the integrity to grant such a credential, the IG subsequently declined the offer.

In early January of this year, he posted in a WhatsApp group in Kambia that he had scholarship chances and could help people acquire government pin codes, among other things, but that the offer was only valid for those from the South and east.   Someone sent him NLe1,500 for overseas study without realizing he was a scammer.  The scammer claimed that the entire application process for the scholarship cost 3,000 New Leone.  Later, the contacted person realized that he was not who he had been representing himself to be, and he immediately blocked the victim of his syndicate.  He once more perpetrated the same crime against Molai, another individual, and someone else.  In the pretense of an international scholarship, he demanded 3000 New Leones from each person. He accepted the cash and fled without telling them where he was.  The m
