Big Fish incident, a lesson for Sierra Leoneans

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.

Some interesting facts about Bo City.

Bo, also known as Bo City, is Sierra Leone's second largest city by landscape/geographical location (after Freetown) and the largest city in the Southern Province. Bo is the district's capital and administrative center.
Bo is one of Sierra Leone's most ethnically diverse cities. Many of Sierra Leone's ethnic groups have a significant presence in the city, with the Mende ethnic group forming the majority, followed by Temne, Mandingo, Fula, and others. Bo is the primary residence of the Mende people, who make up the majority of the city's population.
The city's population is religiously diverse, with Muslims and Christians predominating.
Bo's modern development began in 1889, with the arrival of the Sierra Leone Government Railway, and it became an educational center in 1906, with the establishment of the Bo Government Secondary School.

It served as the capital of the Sierra Leone Protectorate from 1930 until independence in 1961. The city serves as the administrative hub for the Southern Province. After Freetown, Bo is Sierra Leone's most important transportation, commercial, and educational center.
The people of Bo are known for their tenacity, resistance, and hospitality. The town was named after the generosity of its residents. An elephant was killed near what is now known as the Bo Parking Lot. People came from the surrounding villages to claim their share. Because the amount of meat was so large, the hunter spent days distributing it, and the words "Bo-lor" (which in Mende language means "this is yours," in reference to the meat) were uttered so frequently that the elders and visitors decided to name the place Bo. "Bo-lor" also means "this is Bo" in Mende.

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.

A scammer from Sierra Leone has been captured by Guinean police.

  The person in the picture is actually Abdulai Jalloh, despite the fact that he is identified as a lecturer from Njala University under the name of Dr. Kanu. 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
