It could be recalled that on the 21st of November 2022, Sierra Leone’s multiple award-winning Afrobeat and revolutionary singer Emmerson Bockarie challenges himself by announcing via his social media accounts that he will be paying house rent for fifteen(15) needy Sierra Leonean families.

As a hustler when growing up he had gone through the same path of life his mother struggling to pay their house rent” Meeting physical needs is one of the most impactful ways of showing love to others” he disclosed.

Abdul Karim Kamara, one of the fifteen beneficiaries of Emmerson’s cash aid received two thousand Leones (NLe 2,000) from the team in Makeni on the 13th of December 2022, noting that” As a fervent listener and a texter, I heard the message via a local radio station Radio Mankneh 96.1FM in Makeni, that Emmerson and his team helping needed young people on rental fees for a year, I straightaway search for his Facebook page and sent in my request” he established

However, Kamara expressed God’s favour and fairness considering how many people would have sent in requests and ascertained that “My story to the team is clear, as a young man above 30, father of two children no wife as she decided to leave me, in March this year, I lost sight of one of my eyes, which led me to sell most of my valuables to find a cure, yet no cure, during the period I lost my mum, I am in a thin line as my house rent elapses this year” he convinced the team.

He further pointed out the rigorous process to vet him, as he had a call from the team and engaged him in an interview to substantiate his claim, and came to a time he was sceptical if it was a real deal coming from Emmerson until when he received an SMS message that, he will receive the money as one of the beneficiaries in two days.

“I can’t imagine when I received an alert via Orange Money of NLe 2,000 backup with a confirmation call. I am so excited, Emmerson takes me off a stressful mood, considering my rental date elapse this December.

I thank him and his team, InshAllah, I will use it to pay my rent, and snap the receipt and share it with him to know the condition he rescues me from” he expressed appreciation.
