A viral video circulating widely on social media has raised concerns and triggered debate among citizens after supporters of the Sierra Leone People’s Party were seen running behind opposition flagbearer Mohamed Omordu Kamara, popularly known as Jagaban, while chanting his name.

In the footage, the individuals, reportedly dressed in SLPP polo shirts bearing the image of President Julius Maada Bio, are seen enthusiastically following Kamara’s jeep as it passed through what sources describe as the rural outskirts of Freetown.

The incident is said to have occurred during an SLPP gathering, where party supporters had assembled for an event. According to accounts, the crowd reacted spontaneously upon spotting the flagbearer of the opposition All People’s Congress, breaking into chants of his name and trailing his vehicle.

The video has since generated mixed reactions online, with citizens and observers questioning the circumstances surrounding the scene. Some have asked whether the moment was genuine or orchestrated.

While there has been no official confirmation of the incident, many commentators argue that the optics could prove damaging for the ruling SLPP, particularly in the context of political loyalty and public perception.

As discussions continue on social media platforms, the incident underscores the heightened political sensitivities ahead of future electoral contests.
