The Minister of Information and Civic Education has disclosed that the Sierra Leonean government has made two unsuccessful attempts to extradite political activist and social media commentator, Adebayor, from the Netherlands.
The revelation came during the Ministry of Information and Civic Education’s (MOIC) weekly press briefing.
The Minister explained that Sierra Leone had previously sought Adebayor’s extradition due to his alleged role in orchestrating unrest in the country. However, despite the government’s formal requests, diplomatic efforts to secure his return have not been successful.
Drawing a parallel to a current case involving the Dutch government, the Minister referenced the extradition request for Jos Leijdekkers, a Dutch national wanted by the Netherlands. He noted that while the Dutch government has been publicly engaging on the matter via social media, Sierra Leone has strictly followed diplomatic protocols in its attempts to secure Adebayor’s extradition.
Speaking on the issue of an extradition request from the Dutch government circulating on social media, the Minister further revealed that early last week, the Sierra Leonean government received an official communication from the Dutch authorities. The request sought a meeting between the Dutch Deputy Head of Mission in Ghana and Sierra Leone’s Attorney General to hand over documents and engage the government regarding the Jos Leijdekkers case. However, the Dutch government did not come as requested, and the minister, who was eagerly waiting, noted that they instead went to Ghana. A delegation was sent there, and a large volume of documents was handed over to them.
According to the Minister, these documents were officially received by the Sierra Leonean government on Sunday and are currently under review by the Attorney General and Minister of Justice. The government will determine its next steps after careful legal consideration.
Den geh Freedom of speech na Netherlands. Calling for protests is not a crime, so una go siddom. Maada Bio is the one that should be prosecuted for what he has done to the country
E beh lek sae SL Government Dem don dae go crazy oooh
E nr possible for leh una go hold becoz no to drugs dealer.
Aaa God have mercy 🙏 on our own land Sierra Leone 😭😭😭
Is this Govt admitting, somehow, that Bolle Jos is in their custody? And they are ready to trade him for Adebayor, whose alleged crime remains unclear and undefined?
You said Adebayor’s crime is unclear? Are you sick or what?
What kind of film are we acting is like we have become a comedians
This guy’s are not serious oo.u are taking us as sori Hala Hala right but time will tell
The same swear Adebayor get, no parental blessings, the same most of you have. Very shameful and sad. Mariama kargbo and kpakpaungor, you didn’t see or hear what Adebayor had done in Sierra Leone. You are all stupid fools. Uneducated fools. God will punish all of you and any of you who don’t want peace, good and love to be done in Sierra Leone. May the almighty God remove all of you and dump you all into the sea. God bless Sierra Leone.
Thank you for speaking and telling them the truth my dear. No one can compare a drug to an inciter like Adebayor, which has incited young Sierra Leoneans and led to the loss of many lives and government properties, including securities. I also lost a brother in the Makeni August unannounced and unauthorized protest caused by the same Adebayor. Drugs are chosen by those who love them, not everybody is involved in drugs dealer and consumption.
The majority of our fellow black people were still happy to the atrocities causes by the white folks because they benefits out of it greatly. Very sorry to those blind folks. However, the Master Planner through the blessings of our departed Ancestors will help us to make Africa great again.
You are the biggest idiot I have ever seen
Well go for him senseless dog
Egregious utterance is NEVER the answer.
Disclaimer: I strongly disagree with insurgence ACTS of any kind.
This impulsive actions of yours/your kindreds marketed Adebayor. Little did we know about him till your safe return to authority.
You absolutely made him and still making him subject of discussion (to say “topic of discussion is an understatement”).
No party could brag of owning SL albeit a single S/Leonean dreaming of it.
how do you compare a drug dealer to a democracy advocate? what is wrong with calling for public protest, freedom to assemble, associate and speech? Short of his motherly invective against our leaders, adebayor is a hero, at least in the eyes of Europeans. is Jos a hero to the salone government? is this why salone is keeping Jos, to ask for ade, refusing which the salone gov’t can also refuse to extradite Jos? really? this is a shameful way to admit that Jos Leijdekkers and Umar Sheriff are one and that the kleptocrats of biocracy are keeping him secure while he lays the golden eggs. Jos is a hostage in sierra leone, although he does not know that he will eventually be sold out by the very people protecting and using him to get rich quick.
But the headline is wrong not APC activist but a voice for the voiceless
