“The Hardest Challenge We Have Faced is Rise in Cost of Living” – President Bio

President Bio has on Tuesday said that the hardest challenge his government has faced is the rise in the cost of living resulting from the multiple global shocks.

This statement was made during the launching of the People’s Manifesto 2023 in Kenema at the Dr. Ahmad Tejan Kabba hall, Eastern Technical University of Sierra Leone Campus. The manifesto is titled “the new direction: consolidating gains and accelerating transformation.”

Bio who is seeking re-election for a five-year second term in office said his resolve has been to do everything possible to shield the people from these numerous economic shocks.

“We have ensured that essential commodities are available in the country even when others experienced prolonged shortages. We invested to boost local food production”. He maintained.

This event marked an important step towards addressing the current situation in the country, as it signaled the official launch of the Manifesto. Concerns have been raised by citizens regarding the rising cost of living, and President Bio acknowledged that this is a result of multiple global shocks. He reassured the public that his government is diligently working to address this issue.

President Bio expressed his motivation to build upon the achievements they have made and the determination to do even more if given a second mandate. He humbly acknowledged the responsibility of leading the SLPP into another election, emphasizing the commitment he made to the people of Sierra Leone five years ago.

Furthermore, he emphasized that his government has implemented the necessary policies to support the success of their agenda.

” This is an agenda that promises to consolidate the gains we have and to take advantage of new opportunities we have created. While addressing emerging challenges, our vision remains to get Sierra Leone to a middle-income status by 2030. we believe we have put the right policies in place to support this agenda”. he stated.

Despite the shock globally in supply chain in our economy.He JMHB ,you started well by monitoring MDS, Ministries, department and agencies.authormatically, you stop this good check and balances,then things started going wrongly because sierra Leonean have one characters,when are under pressure we do the right thing but the moment monitoring has stop,we will working for ourselves not for the people anymore.As for me,this is one of the main factors that destroyed our economy today. We Sierra leonean, we hates our country internally because our selfish desires it's what we cherished much. Let us think and broadly our minds, since Independent,if we are honest, which areas of achievement the country has score which other government could never returned again to rebrand it's.our country was number one in the west Africa according to history,were are today.within five years mandate our expectations it's too high. That's we are not rational with ourselves.its now we have got Airport. The entire freetown layout it's mess up.our politicians have visited many countries and if they are honest,all of them we agreed with me that our country it's emptied.the foundation of freetown was poorly planned. All what the politicians are thinking of,how to come to power and corrupt, and when anti corruption tend to investigate them ,the will started saying: politically motivated. To fool who are fools because of tribal and regional ambition.

We thank God for such acceptant but trust Bio will not lead us for a second term it will be dangerous for us in sierra Leone if Bio was given a second term considering the fact of his leadership , equally so, his aultrances with the people of sierra Leone . And the minds of the people has drastically change for Dr Samura Kamara and there is nothing that can stop him from taking the mantle of leadership . Bio never respect the nations and he can not demand to us again for power ,if it happens trust the people of Sierra Leone will continue to suffer with the brutal arresting and attack of the police that has become detriment to the country . We all need peace and unity .
