The police they are just doing their job and securing lives and property of this nation. One you should know that they also have life and they are defending themselves too. Why blaming the police.

Sierra Loaded you're contributing to the rise in panic. The way you present your news may trigger public grievance against state institutions especially against the Police. This is a crucial time, you just don't type a news like this one. If this is true, may the departed soul Rest In Peace and may Justice prevail.

This is so unfair. How could they shoot a disable who was just fighting for his survival. This is bad, this is terrible, this is dangerous for our beloved country Sierra Leone 🇸🇱. What is really going on in our country? What is the meaning of this ? Soldiers parading to and fro with guns in their hands, na this we be vote for. Mr President please try hard to sort out the issues between your opposition, and that of the diaspora who are intimidating the youths of this country just to put you down. I believe they are the reason for all this treat that is happening in our country. The government should set a special team that is going to investigate all those that are said to be sponsoring the protest especially the diaspora. Those APCians are very stupid, senseless, arrogant, ignorant and shameless, because the should focus on settlings the issues between them selves and leave His Excellency Maada Bio alone. The whole world is going through economic crises not only Sierra Leone, they are just busy criticizing the man. Maada Bio is born to be great so please l suggest you leave him alone. Enough is enough! Period.
