A new surgery done by Afrobarometer has revealed that three-quarters of Sierra Leoneans believe that the government handled the COVID-19 pandemic better than the 2014 Ebola Outbreak.
A vast majority of locals in the West African nation said government response was better with COVID-19 Pandemic than the Ebola Epidemic.
The Ebola outbreak lasted for two years and claimed the lives of over 3,700 in Sierra Leone while the COVID-19 Pandemic left 125 dead in the West African nation.
The survey, however revealed that only a small portion of households in the country benefited relief assistance and that it was distributed unfairly due to corruption.
