A video circulating on Facebook has stirred conversation across Sierra Leone after it appeared to show the country’s First Lady, Fatima Bio, with a noticeably protruding stomach, prompting speculation that she may be expecting a child.
In the clip, Fatima Bio is seen dressed in a vibrant blue African outfit, addressing an audience with energy and charisma. She shared a heartfelt story about her humble beginnings as a young pupil in Kono, Eastern Sierra Leone, where she described the challenges she faced growing up in poverty and how those experiences shaped her life.
Despite the inspiring content of her speech, many online viewers were quick to shift their attention to her physical appearance. Some congratulated President Julius Maada Bio, interpreting her rounded belly as evidence of pregnancy. Others reacted with a mix of humor and disbelief, with one commenter writing: “This is the first time I’m seeing a First Lady getting pregnant while in office.”
The video quickly gained traction, with supporters praising the First Lady’s beauty and resilience, while critics and skeptics cautioned against drawing conclusions based on appearance alone.
As of now, there has been no official confirmation or statement from the Office of the First Lady or State House regarding the pregnancy rumors. The absence of verification has left the matter in the realm of speculation, amplified by the speed and reach of social media.
