The US senate Visiting for what? To play the bosses on us? Let them go and reform their system of democracy how they are mistreating those they term as black people. You can't hate Africa people in your countries but you like taking what we have in our country that benefits us and makes us staying in our country to enjoy and develop our peace and tranquility. This visit is not for the benefit of Sierra Leoneans but the Americans, their embassy enjoyed and had pleasure of hosting his colleagues not the Sierra Leoneans that slept hungry, died on the streets because they had propagate another diseases in the country that is killing our family lives seriously called measles in stead of missiles test. That's why their military experts are going to see how dangerous it causes amongst the people, and to see how fast they will give the vaccines to calming it down before it spreads like Ebola. I say this once more if that Americans laboratory in kenema district do not close Sierra Leoneans will stop having unexpected diseases in the country because in that laboratory they created all type of military biological weapons and tests it first on our people as guinea pigs, for free. We should remember when the Ebola break out, they send 4000 millitry expert personnels and and England send 3000 of them. Thanks to the Cuban's who sent 180 Doctors to combat their disease that they thrown on our people. But the Koroma government didn't answered the question why do Sierra Leoneans welcomed 7000 military experts in stead of Doctors? Because it was the same biological weapons tested before on the Congolese in 1939 for their minerals resources to be extracted without paying a cent for it. Sierra Leoneans stand up for your birthplace against the international looters and stay away from their hypocritical fake policies donors. Sierra Leone can rise without any donations from any countries around the world Sierra Leoneans are the ones sustaining their economies, that they keep coming back to get more and more, in place of partnership they are destroying your lives and calming you down while they are exploiting your country. Beware they are come as sheep's in wolves clothing. Don't sees them as partners but bosses role they played from slavery to now.

When the enemies of my enemies have become my friends, my enemies also wants to become my friends. I could see the light at the end of the tunnel for our country. Kudos to President Bio for bringing two enemies as our friends. One thing I will like to say to Pres. Bio is that we keep our enemies on the one hand and their enemies on the other hand. So that no one will become dictators over us any longer but see us as partners. So Sierra Leoneans, let us love our country, regardless of who is in power and embrace the developments that are coming.
