Renowned Sierra Leonean female musician Davida Greene, popularly known as Vida has recently appealed to the country’s government to consider clemency for popular rapper Boss La, who is currently serving a 9 years imprisonment.

Vida emphasized the importance of forgiveness, love, compassion, and second chances in our daily lives, regardless of religious tradition.

She quoted Boss La, who expressed deep remorse and a desire to become a better person, artist, and father to his children.

“This past couple of months of incarceration has taught a lesson I haven’t learnt in all my years of existence. It’s has taught me to be a better person, a better artiste and above all a better father to my children. Whom I miss so dearly.

All I’m asking for is a second chance to be a better person. A second chance to make amends and a second chance to prove to my family, friends, fans, supporters and my country that I’ll be a better person”.

Vida requested the government, specifically H.E. Dr. Julius Maada Bio and Her Excellency Fatima Maada Bio, to give Boss La a second chance to make amends and contribute positively to Sierra Leone once again.

She believes that he deserves mercy and a chance to prove himself as a better person, artist, and father.

In closing, Vida wished a happy independence day to the people of Sierra Leone.
