Three corresponding Chiefdoms including Mandu, Dea, and Malema in Kailahun District, Eastern Sierra Leone have raised grave concerns over poor road networks in their respective localities.

The major routes connecting these three neighbouring Chiefdoms headquarters towns of Mobai to Baiwala and Jojoima roads had become miserably damaged and a threat to the safety, environmental, social, and economic lives of the people in this part of the country.

The current state of these roads if not addressed on time, will create an inclination for economic stagnation, severed connectivity, habitual distruption, accidents, exacerbated poverty, and transportation cost among other unforseen issues at the expense of these communities.
Despite reasonable efforts made by local residents and indigenes, these communities still remained in a complete neglect.

The Mandu Classroom, one of the most outstanding social media platforms that seek redress to pressing issues in the Mandu Chiefdom as part of its own contributions to the deployable road conditions recently launched a road maintenance fund raising initiative, but the situation is scarcely addressed.

It would be interesting to know that Jojoima, a host comunity of an Ultra-Modern 45-bed room facility with a unit to cater for pregnant women, lactating mothers and their children and a laboratory unit for tests, a blood bank unit, a surgery and an isolation unit that would be used in an event of an emergency outbreak continues to suffer in a total neglects of deployable road networks.

Residents in these localities have appealed for Government intervention by reminding H.E the President Rtd. Brig. Dr. Julius Maada Bio on his promises made during a turn of a sod event for the construction of the 45-bed room hospital in Jojoima dated Sunday 21st November, 2020. A promise to provide electricity and good roads in Malema Chiefdom especially the Mobai to Jojoima Road.
