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
Chernor Bah, a popular local journalist for the Africanist Press, has been ranting on social media, attempting to persuade some APC senior members to take to the streets and protest the Paopa administration.
Some of his remarks are as follows:
"Instead of telling the masses they’ve a right to protest without police permit, why can’t Lawyer Ade Macauley and his party comrades, his colleague lawyers and MPs, lead a peaceful demonstration against the judicial coup against their party?"
"Ask the members of the illegal 21-Man Committee of the APC, the MPs and their leader, why did they accept to be beneficiaries of an illegal judge’s decision instead of calling for a demonstration against the Court coup against their party? Disloyal comrades!!"
"If these opposition lawyers and MPs are truly genuine and sincere, they’ll peacefully mobilize people in a peaceful march against the use of the judiciary and other institutions to destroy multiparty politics and democracy in Sierra Leone!!"
Finally, I'd like to tell Chernor Bah that he is a coward; if he truly believes that he is fighting corruption, I'd advise him to go to the ground and get primary sources rather than secondary information or hearsay.
The real cowards are those he's accusing, with plain evidence, of massive looting of the treasury without any attempt to fight back against what they call an attemp by Chernoh Bah to soil their image.
