The so-called Sierra Leone military and police are the most worthless entity in the country. It’s unbelievable, to see the naive military and uncultured police supporting illegality, illegitimacy, and unconstitutionality.
Ignominy and sham bogus police and criminal military. Look the Guinean military have long since occupied yenga, why can’t these useless military & good for nothing, military confront the Guinean military, for illegally occupying your country’s territory.
Both entities ( police & military) are always good at brutalising your own compatriot, just to fulfill the ambitions of an illegitimate, illegal, and lawless dictator.
But posterity shall judge all those involved in the killings, brutality, of innocent citizens. But the long arm of the law shall surely catch up with all those lawless criminals soldiers.
Can someone tell me, what’s the role of the military again?
We are confident that our security officers are ready to maintain peace and stability and anyone trying to disturb will be disturb .
