The residents of Spurloop Community have issued an urgent plea to legal and media authorities to intervene in an escalating crisis involving threats, harassment, and unlawful detentions allegedly instigated by Osman Jabbie, who is reportedly connected as a brother to Sierra Leone’s First Lady, Dr. Fatima Maada Bio.
The community reports a pattern of verbal and physical abuse attributed to Osman Jabbie, which has plunged residents into fear and anxiety. The situation has escalated with the alleged unlawful detention of several community members under circumstances that remain ambiguous and appear unjustified. Despite these alarming developments, Jabbie has reportedly continued to issue threats of further arrests, exacerbating the community’s apprehension.
The impact of these actions is devastating. Businesses within Spurloop are closing, as people fear for their safety. The local economy is on the brink of collapse, and residents are grappling with the dual burden of personal safety concerns and financial strain.
In a collective statement, residents call for immediate intervention and have outlined their demands:
A thorough investigation into the allegations against Osman Jabbie, with legal accountability for any wrongdoing.
The immediate release of individuals believed to be unlawfully detained.
Restoration of peace and normalcy to the Spurloop Community to ensure safety for residents and the uninterrupted operation of businesses.
The residents emphasize the urgency of the situation, warning of dire consequences if the harassment and intimidation are allowed to continue unchecked. They are appealing for immediate action to prevent further escalation, safeguard their livelihoods, and uphold justice and security in the community.
The call for intervention underscores the broader need for adherence to the rule of law and protection of fundamental rights for all citizens, regardless of affiliations or connections.
