Former President Koroma Responds to Police Invite, Calls for Calm Amidst Rising Concerns

Sierra Leone’s former president, Ernest Bai Koroma, has issued a plea for calm following a 24-hour notice from the police to report in connection with the failed attempted coup on November 26. The incident resulted in the death or arrest of several of his former and current bodyguards. (https://takes2fitness.com/)

In a press release from Koroma’s office dated December 7, 2023, it was announced that the former president had received an invitation from the Inspector General of Police in Freetown. The release stated, “The office of Former President, HE Ernest Bai Koroma, hereby informs the public that former President Koroma has on Thursday 7th December received an invitation from the Inspector General of Police in Freetown. Former President Koroma will, therefore, be traveling to Freetown to honor the said invitation.”

Emphasizing his commitment to cooperation, Koroma stated, “I maintain an open mind and stand ready to support the police investigations to the fullest. Let the rule of law reign supreme in our democracy.” This statement aims to reassure the public and demonstrate Koroma’s willingness to engage with the legal process.

The 26th November coup attempt marked a significant and troubling event in Sierra Leone’s recent history, with the involvement of Koroma’s security personnel adding complexity to the situation. The former president’s decision to comply with the police invitation is likely an effort to demonstrate transparency and adherence to the rule of law.

As the nation awaits developments, concerns linger about potential political ramifications and the stability of Sierra Leone’s democracy. Ernest Bai Koroma’s call for calm suggests a desire to avoid further tensions, urging citizens to trust in the legal process while he collaborates with authorities to address the allegations surrounding the failed coup.

Secondaly if he does not love his country he should not stay here he kindly go to the united state of American or other countries.again he never interfie bio government they keep pushing him to talk as if he's the president. Legend are born so if you guys have invited the former president of this nation it's well with you I know he's your senior he's more mature than bio so we wish the former president save journey to the CID let him prove him self to his best of his abilities and show them how Democratic he's lonta .

No one should play God, or try God. Touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm. Ask Hamas after he goes for Mordecai. Ask Goliath, ask Jezebel, ask Daniel conspirators. God is slow to anger, his wrath is powerful, no one can stand it. As a nation let us resist evil and turn to God, before it too late. Repent, don’t anger the wrath of God.

Maada Bio feels he can humilate the former President Ernest Bai Koroma by inviting him to the CID. Ernest, please tell Maada Bio that you are better educated, more civilized, more democratic, more popular than him, more patriotic and more developmental. Maada Bio has killed more innocent people in this country than any other leader since Sierra Leone gained it's independent. Maada Bio started killing innocent people in this country since 1992 when he was Head of the Execution Team of the NPRC. In the last five years, Maada Bio has killed more than a thousand innocent people in this country. Maada Bio is another. "Alie Baba " who has emptied the Central Bank to an extent that the Bank Governor had to run away from suppression. Maada Bio is the only President that presented Fake receipts to the Auditor General and when asked for explanation and justification, Maada Bio had to sack her from her job. Shameless president. Maada Bio has no respect for the Constitution of this country. Maada Bio is a notorious Lier, at the UN General Assembly, Maada Bio told a lot of false glories about Sierra Leone. Maada Bio is a violator of human rights. Maada Bio calls his own people (he is bound to protect ) the demonstrators, as terrorists. Maada Bio shameless stole the people's democratic rights ( votes) and he is not a recognized president. Maada Bio is only recognized by the ECOWAS Leaders whom he Bribed for acceptance. Maada Bio has misused the Military, pay them small salaries, sacked many of them, planted spies among them in all the barracks and provided allowances for his informants. Of course there was no coup plot. This is one of Maada Bio's game -plan to gain recognixation from the Dishonest Leaders of the ECOWAS. Maada Bio did not Win the past elections. Maada Bio and ECSL Commissioner stole the democratic rights of the people of Sierra Leone. We the people of this county will not accept Maada Bio as President. He does not deserve to be president of this county, Sierra Leone. Go, Maada Bio Go to the devil's damn !!
