There has been widespread speculation that the former Inspector-General of Police, Ambrose Sovula, was sacked for negligence with regards to the alleged cocaine container which was reportedly switched under his supervision.
This 40ft Container was arrested on Friday 22, July, 2022 at Kingtom, on suspicion it contained some Contraband items.
The police took custody of the said container and later opened it in public view only to find in it un-stashed of frozen chicken and frozen sausages, with no arms, or drugs uncovered.
But soon after, Dr Sylvia Blyden and the Awareness Times mounted series of Investigations from which they found out that a Maersk Line shipping container (containing frozen chicken) identical to the suspected Cocaine container was switched with the suspected container behind closed gates of Senior Police Officers Mess at Kingtom
Awareness Times Newspaper’s reports had evidence of a photo showing the process of the switch during which a very senior Police officer violently chased them out of the premises for the crime of “staying behind to kongosah” after other journalists had left.
The same report revealed an official data from Brazil Police which showed a history of the movement of Cocaine between Brazil to Freetown in sea containers.
That report aroused a controversy among Sierra Leoneans after which was followed by the announcement of the dismissal of the former Inspector-General of Police, Ambrose Sovula.
In the fake degree whistle blower’s revelations, Ambrose Sovula was revealed to be a recipient of a fake PHDs from African Graduates University and Dominion Christian University.
The Whistle blower Dr John Idriss Lahai also disclosed that the IG of Police, Ambrose Sovula’s first degree, Masters and PhD are all fake.
Some Sierra Leoneans are saying it could be that the President have accepted that the former IG is not and was never competent to serve in that position and that is why he has taken the decision to sack him.
However, the other set of Sierra Leoneans are saying that it is nemesis that has caught up with him for all crimes committed against human rights under his leadership.
It was under his watchful gaze injustices was done to poor and innocent Sierra Leoneans in the likes of popular musician, Alhaji Amadu Bah popularly known as LAJ who was detained, tortured, injected with harmful substance and forcefully cut off his dreadlocks.
His two brothers, Ishmael Bah and Mohamed S. Bah, and nine others were sentenced to 36 months imprisonment for riotous conduct and disorderly behavior, when in actual sense their only crimes was to go to the OSD HQ on the 15th June demanding to see LAJ who was being held in custody.
Fellow musicians, politicians, civil servants, lawyers, activists and Sierra Leoneans in the diaspora have all condemned his arrest and advocated for his release but yet still the rapper is behind bars.
