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. That is
The APC has formed a civil disobedience organization known as the marshal warriors to cause mayhem during the elections.
If the SLPP government does not stand firm and use the national constitution to regulate the operations of some opposition parties, its ambition to remain in power until and after 2023 will almost certainly be realized, but there will be some minor unwelcome chaos in some parts of the country, particularly in the APC's stronghold.
If you've been following this space, you'll recall that I reported a few months ago that senior APC members allegedly formed a radical group known as the marshal warriors to protect what they called their votes in any election.Worse, these warriors are never told to protect their votes in accordance with electoral processes, but rather to use whatever means necessary, including violence.I'm pleading with Sierra Leone's government to disband these particular groups as soon as possible before the upcoming general elections.See a video of them gallivanting around Koya Chiefdom, planning to wreak havoc during the upcoming Parliamentary by-election. And, could you believe it, the much-touted NGC, which we were told stood for national cohesion, had its chairman inspecting the APC's newly formed radical group known as 'The Marshal Warriors'?
