In response to the alarming events that unfolded on November 26, 2023, wherein unidentified individuals unlawfully accessed the armory at the Wilberforce barracks and absconded with an unspecified quantity of weapons, the Inter-Religious Council of Sierra Leone has issued a stern press release.
The council expressed deep concern regarding the breach at the barracks and the subsequent incident involving the Male Correctional Centre at Pademba Road, leading to the release of some inmates. Highlighting the gravity of these events, the council emphasized the direct threat they pose to the nation’s ongoing peace-building endeavors and the potential to disrupt Sierra Leone’s democratic progress.
Condemning such violent actions and the resulting loss of life, including that of innocent citizens, the Inter-Religious Council of Sierra Leone unequivocally opposes such acts of aggression. The council expressed the fervent hope that those responsible for these actions will be swiftly apprehended and brought to justice through fair and expedited legal processes.
Amidst these unsettling events, the Inter-Religious Council reaffirmed its commitment to supporting the government and citizens of Sierra Leone through earnest prayers for peace and stability in the nation. Their declaration serves as a beacon of solidarity during these challenging times, fostering hope for a peaceful resolution and a return to stability in the country.
