In a candid statement, Ishmail Bah, popularly known as Rappish and the elder brother of Boss La, has voiced his concerns regarding the alleged coup charges against former President Ernest Bai Koroma. Bah, not mincing words, criticized the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) for its approach to the situation.
He remarked, “ECOWAS is west Africa biggest problem, we have seen several meetings held by the west African states condemning coup d’etats around the region, this time is one of their colleague who is been accused of being part of a coup and to overthrow a sitting government, they are willing to loose it all just to cut a deal to get the former president an exile deal plus his benefit to be continued. So what happened to the other accused people who have been charged with the same crime and possible conspirators. If the exile deal goes through, it should be considered as corruption.”
Bah highlighted his belief that ECOWAS has become a significant challenge for West Africa, expressing discontent with the organization’s response to the accusations against the former president. He pointed out the apparent double standards, noting previous instances where ECOWAS held meetings condemning coup d’etats across the region. Now, with one of their own accused of involvement in a coup to overthrow a sitting government, Bah suggests ECOWAS is seemingly willing to compromise its principles.
The crux of Bah’s criticism lies in the speculated negotiations for an exile deal for former President Koroma. According to Bah, if such a deal is struck, it should be viewed as a form of corruption. He questions the fairness of allowing the former president an escape route while others accused of the same crime and potential conspirators face the full force of the law.
Bah’s statement prompts reflection on the potential repercussions of ECOWAS prioritizing an exile deal over impartial justice. He suggests that if the former president is granted an exile deal along with the continuation of his benefits, it could set a dangerous precedent and undermine the rule of law.
The broader implication, as portrayed by Bah, is a lack of consistency in ECOWAS’ commitment to addressing coup-related charges. By focusing on negotiations for an exile deal, Bah implies that ECOWAS may be more concerned with protecting one of its own than ensuring justice is served. This stance raises questions about the organization’s credibility and its ability to uphold democratic principles in the region.
As the situation unfolds, the eyes of West Africa will be on ECOWAS and its handling of this high-profile case. The criticisms raised by Ishmail Bah underscore the need for transparency, accountability, and fairness in addressing allegations of coup involvement, without exceptions based on political affiliations or stature. The outcome of this case could significantly impact the perception of ECOWAS as a regional body committed to fostering stability and democratic governance in West Africa.
ECOWAS seem to be part of our problem in destabilizing our country for their own selfish gains.
What ECOWAS does in the case of former vice president samsumana ? Did Ernest koroma pay them to keep quiet or are they trying to escape with Ernest koroma because of his money so they can bring war in sierra Leone? Please let us know , but if Maada Bio jopadise this game ECOWAS is coming with them let him also ready to give up the sit and say goodbye to mama Salone, enough is enough
Indeed we should not compromise our laws no matter who is involved.
The peace of this nation is more precious than anything else. He can tried anywhere in the world
West Africa has come some things else
ECOWAS is no more for West Africa they they are for individual benefit people are trying to overthrow a ruling government you are here bagging and making deals for one person what about the other are they not a sierraleoner Africans are the same people that’s why we are going no where
It’s not a surprise.Your brother has been removed from prison days back that’s why you are using this medium to say all such of words.
I practically understand his predicament He is looking for self recognition to the bio administration 😂😂stupid people everywhere
Trust me, my brother West Africa biggest problem is ECOWAS ❌🚫💔
Perfectly said
Everything about ECOWAS is scam…
To hell with ECOWAS committee we are not interested in any inconveniences with you guys because you are all corrupt 💯 percent of sierra Leonean are not in support of your so-called relocation we are going to investigate this matter as SIERRA LEONEAN we have our super curt that is capable to investigate our issues if they are innocent they well goes curt free but if our super curt find them guite they well go to jail for there action’s we have lost so many soldiers and polices including peaceful cities who have no ideas about ebk’s plans Allah surely punish him.
People say of laws but this government has damage the laws of our land thousand times.. Where is the concrete proof against EBK. A fish can’t hunt a shark.
They threatened to reinstate President Basum of Niger where did they end up. They are showing Sierra Leone that they have muzzle.
Ishamel bah.is it because your brother lAJ has been pardon by the same president who lock up your family.stupid big man
The whole West Africa knows that ECOWAS isn’t a credible organization or even an organ which its people can never count on…those opportunists, clueless and clowns who can’t even fund their various projects around the sub-region, can we, West Africans, Sierra Leone in particular look up to those selfish, greedy people for any transparent mechanism in solving our various domestic problems…I feel pity for those who count on them.
Ernest Koroma is looking for a way out which he himself knows that only God can save him from this problem which no well wishing salone man will pray for…but I believe President Bio knows that if succumb to that proposal, he’s not only breaching our constitution (betraying his people) but he’s also put an abrupt and consequencial end to his beautiful political carrier…he might even loose his…in that process because the people of salone will not allow him as a young leader to help sellout our country to foreigners for which he’s even mad at his predecessor…
I loved you better than you would ever be able to express here. The picture is beautiful, and your wording is elegant; nonetheless, you read it in a short amount of time. I believe that you ought to give it another shot in the near future. If you make sure that this trek is safe, I will most likely try to do that again and again.
ECOWAS is really unserious, no doubt they are finding it very difficult to address the problem of West Africa in terms of coup d’etat. It’s better we call for its desolation and let every country find it own loyal and lovely friend(s) who will be ready to help in terms of problem and not to undermine critical situation like the one in Sierra Leone at the moment.. Definitely without justice, no peace, so let justice prevail.
Sierra Leoneans don’t blame this son of a bitch Bar. This dude is trying to gain sympathy from the Paopa government since himself his so call brother LA including their were molested by this government and now his brother has been released from prison what will you expect this son of a bitch mother fucker is to rant his ass hole.
You are very objective in your statement
ECOWAS remember what happened in Liberia between Samuel K.Doe and Prince Johnson.
This is not about politics but peace and justice. If Ernest is guilty let him face the consequences of his actions we don’t care who he was or who he is currently. The so- called ECOWAS should allow our government to do his work please.
Come on is this same cow of a fullah was lock up by this government because of a statements he make against the government this guy is not serious trust me
Mr. Nigerian President, you don’t love sierra leoneans, so take your hands off, off from ebk case. I am a sierra leonean and I have the right to speak up. You have no right to ask for ebk to escape justices in sierra leone. If your soldiers try to overthrow you and fail, now you have them in custody, will you let them go to sierra leone and wait for trial. Answer me. I don’t want to say bad words towards you. I respect my elders, but this is what am going to say to any of you. Those who are trying to undermines Maada Bio government, citizens, foreigners, JFK, and others, may the almighty God whom I served, the living God of Israel, send the angel of death upon all of you and your generatoins as He did it to the Assyrians, in Isaiah 37: 36. Read it. You don’t love peace and stabilities in serra leone. May God destroy anyone of you who are in this positions. Anyone of you will never witness peace in your lives and your generations. Take your hands off from our law in sierra leone. Amen.
Those four ECOWAS country will face modern what happened in Sierra Leona
Ecowas are seriously currupt
Let us don’t blame Ecowas , let blame our president , because he didn’t know what politics is that why he asspected .
We nor for blame Ishmael Bah na wea den don gi pardon to LAJ na dat make. Why wea den bin hold LAJ en lock up una entire family na pademba, den una bin say dis government nor dea fo in yon pipul dem. A nor blame you for one bro. Keep the buku tok 😄 den born una for tok. Naw a know na position una dea luk en beg for to the first lady en in man de president of the Salone.
As we continue to hold the peace and moral values of our democratic rules, we are patiently waiting for the truth and the law to exercise the needful towards EBK’s case.
In my opinion, ECOWAS doesn’t need to ask the claimed government of Sierra Leone to exile the former president who may seem guilty of the accused crimes. However, let the rule of law do the needful to prove the innocence of Koroma.
President Koroma is a man of integrity and a law-abiding individual. We can not just expect a democratically elected president for two terms can afford such a risk to overthrow a fake government while he has all the chances to veer around and go for a third term by then.
This is a complete POLITICAL VENDETTA.
May Allah save this nation (SL)
Sierra Leone is a country ebk has nothing to do with madabio stop this let pray for our country madabio has poil this nation
ECOWAS and most of the international organization are not credible. To you president Bio, we the people of Sierra Leone don’t want to see ECOMOG deployment here. Our militaries are very good and can defend our land.
Moreover, if you bring ECOMOG here, you are gone. Nigeria are top criminals in the world.
Na way den don free ihn brother na that make ihn the tok this rubbish
Our biggest problem in West Africa is the so called ECOWAS, they are not here to protect the state but EBK because of his wealth, what did they do in the case of Sam Sumana. EBK didn’t recognized the said ECOWAS. Our country is a sovereign state so please Mr. President take your hands off from our justice sector.
BE WARN!
You should stop fascinating information into this forum, this publish doesn’t make any sense
ECOWAS is doing the right thing to prevent war in this country the bio government is accusing everything thing that happens negative in the country to the cause by the opposition leaders why that should be? They are even plotting games Just to get rid of there opposition opponents now ECOWAS though it that let exile the formal president to see if what this people are saying is true.snd mind you it’s do emotional to see EBK Leaving Sierra Leone As A Pure Citizen all o. The name off this
Bah like seriously?or u trying to get something frrrrrroooooommmm?
Bah Must be very Stupid to think that Other Sierra Leoneans are like him.
In the first case, Maada Bio is not a Legitimate president. Maada Bio And his PAOPA SLPP killer regime stole the democratic rights of the people of Sierra leone. maada Bio’ is a THIEF. Maada Bio’s main Objective as a PAOPA Ruler is to Kill all the political opponent members.
The ( APC). Every reasonable Sierra Leonean knows that there was no coup plot in Sierra Leone . Maada Bio and you Bah, made this tactics to get support from the International community people like ECOWAS so that you can have an opportunity to arrest, imprison and even kill the prominent members of the APC party. You do not want to know that this type of Actions will bring another WAR in Sierra Leone
It is your favourite plan to bring back War in the country. Your SLPP party brought War to this country in 1991and of course you benefited from it. Your SLPP party cannot win any genuine elections conducted by credible officers.
Maada Bio will not succeed in his plan to destroy the APC party. The APC party is an Institution. Maada Bio is doing his Best to destroy the SLPP party which some stupid people like you do not know.
Maada Bio has killed more people in this country than any other leader since Sierra Leone gained it’s independent.
If Maada Bio is really sure about a coup plot at Wilberforce military Barracks, let him invite International Expert to Investigate the suspects. But how can you the PAOPA killer leader set up a an Action to take place in a Military barracks where the assailants were able to open the Amoury Store which is CODED and the Code is with Maada Bio?
Except people like Bah cannot understand the strategy. Also note that the Armoury store is guided daily by Military officers. Maada Bio has a PhD in coup planning but this time all Reasonable people will understand what Maada Bio is up to.Again, I say Maada Bio cannot destroy the APC party. Maada has tried several times using different methods but he will not succeed.
Maada Bio has killed more innocent people in Sierra Leone than any other leader since independent. Maada Bio is not a democratic leader and he STOLE the June 24 elections . Maada Bio is a notorious Lier and a Violator of Human Rights. Maada Bio and his PAOPA killer regime must face the ICC Prosecutor for Crimes against Humanity. The Court sessions must be held in Sierra Leone so that other SLPP party members would not Repeat what Maada Bio has done to the people of Sierra Leone.
Den just free en criminal brother, e geh for say nonsense. We have seen no proof EBK was involved in a coup. ECOWAS is trying to save Bio from himself. Are any of you thinking of the evils Bio is plotting? One party state, more rigged elections? Because at this point he has to be thinking APC will come after him as payback, so he has to be looking to protect himself.
Sierra Leone aaaa Sierra Leone!!!. Our problems can never get solved because our mind set is very poor.
To be honest ECOWAS is a corrupt entity in Africa they are responsible for all the destructive and corrupt act that is going on in this continent
