Bar Association Caretaker Board Responds to Threats of Legal Action From Tuma’s Executive

The Sierra Leone Bar Association Caretaker Board Spokesman, Franklin Campbell Esq, has responded to a press statement issued by the newly Sierra Leone Bar Association Executive led by Tuma Adama Jabbi Kamara Esq., authorising legal action against the SLBA Caretaker Board.

According to Campbell, he believed in the SLBA Caretaker Board will succeed because the process in which they come into existence is within the law and also believe in their integrity.

He also stated that former presidents have previously asked the Swallow executive to conduct a proper election which he stated that they have no issue with.

He continued that people should not be afraid to go into another election if they know they are popular, and they will embrace any legit winner.

He said they have confidence in the Judiciary because it is the place where a case can die or live and he believes justice will prevail. He said they are following the law and are waiting for the serving of papers to them to go to court to produce their evidence.

Brima Santigi is another idiot coming to the limelight. Idiots are easily recognisable. They take delight in posting any rubbish on public forums. This is their mantra.

Elections in Sierra Leone have now become a do-or-die. When one group of people believe they are going to lose an election, they resort to violence in order to stop the election from going on. If the elections go ahead, the losers will not accept defeat. But the biggest surprise to us, is when this is happening among the same very Lawyers we should trust to defend us and our nation. Big up you small minded lawyers, please!

What the problem with our lawyers these days? Why are they so afraid of their legal home ( the court). There were times, when our veteran lawyers will go to court, for everything. I remember the Charles magai, Bu- Buakai, Bartan-macualy, Osho William, etc. Were very proud of the courts. They will sue the government, and appeals any decision verdict, that they don't feel is right. Why can't those lawyers do the same. They will want to do as ordinary people, even if it means to causing disturbance to the public. Let those lawyers go to court and settle their grievance. They should know that, going to court will be documented, regardless of its outcome. So other prospecting lawyers will learn from it. Rightnow, the executive of the Bar association, didn't just put themselves into those positions, and they talking about a parallel organization. Where did they get that mandate? I think they are contributing factors to the present political misunderstanding.

I hope Sierra Leone can see the problem in the making that is the Gento Kamaras. Bio tried to force Gento on the people of Freetown, tried to steal the mayoral election and now this nonsense.
