On Monday, September 11th, the Press Secretary for the Sierra Leonean government, Solomon Jamiru, appeared on the popular “98.1 Good Morning Salone” program. During the interview, he responded to questions regarding his children’s absence from school amid government calls for normalcy, as well as the ongoing protests in the nation.
When asked why his children did not attend school while the government was encouraging everyone to resume their daily routines, Mr. Jamiru emphasized that their absence was due to his knowlwdge of what they (government) have planned. He furthered explained that his children’s school uniforms were not yet prepared, citing his own absence as the reason for the delay.
Furthermore, he underscored that economic hardships were not unique to Sierra Leone but were being experienced globally.
Mr. Solomon drew comparisons with other nations to highlight the worldwide nature of economic challenges. He mentioned Kenya, where a bag of rice reportedly cost $50, equivalent to approximately 1.1 million Sierra Leonean Leone. He clarified that such prices were not prevalent in Sierra Leone. Additionally, he referenced Liberia, where queues for rice had been reported, contrasting it with Sierra Leone’s situation, which did not witness such extreme scenarios. These comparisons, he argued, illustrated the global nature of economic difficulties.
Regarding the ongoing protests in Sierra Leone, Mr. Solomon emphasized that these demonstrations were not harming the government but were, in fact, detrimental to the interests of the Sierra Leonean people. He firmly stated that unauthorized protests would be dealt with by the authorities.
He was questioned about what’s the government is doing about the individual or group placing the entire country on hold and causing economic disruption through calls for strikes and protrests. He reassured the public that the government was actively taking steps to address the economic challenges facing the nation.
E dea lie lek dog 😂😂😂
Twwwwww
This sounds to be a political suicide on one side, if the man is squeezed to minimize the truth what else do you expect him to say?
Lets the government take responsibility of its citizenry in the midst of economic challenges.
The comparison drawn could be a an acute way of quelling down the minds of the citizens, but the the reality is that, things are hard for the common man.
Your responses to the global challenges are purely true sir. In the Western world where we are living, people don’t blame government for the current situation globally. We are all fighting it through prayers and working hard to overcome it than to torment the peace of the country maliciously. Come to think of it, have you ever thought of repenting from all your evil ways for the forgiveness of God and stop blaming government for the catastrophe because of man dwelling in sin? The end time is near, do not waste time hanging your chain of destruction upon the neck of another but to ask God for his mercy through Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. Remember, you are the master of your own fate. Hell is real, and heaven is real. God is angry with the wicked everyday and there is no escape roots beside repentance. People are more focusing on politics which is the playground of Satan, than focusing on God’s chanel to gain Salvation nowadays. Government will surely be saved when Jesus comes but what of you? Think and be honest to yourself. Stop judging and do the right thing to save you soul.
Mr Jamiru will surely meet Allah on the day of judgement.
My children are hungry because other children are facing hunger. Why not compare your hungry children to other household that are fed? Poverty Mentality!
Mr.Editor so from the rest of the secretary ‘s statements it’s only the children’s failure to attend yesterday sounds great you?. Anyway there are other relevant issues you should have used.
