SIERRA LEONE CELEBRATES INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY (IWD) AND AS WOMEN EULOGISE PRESIDENT KOROMA, THE REGULAR IWD PARTICIPANTS DESCRIBE IT AS THE COUNTRY’S BEST EVER IWD IN HISTORY
It has been a long time since I saw President Ernest Bai Koroma (EBK) so animated and happy as he was today. After 10 years of him diligently serving the interests of advancement of women, today the women of Sierra Leone really did him proud. They turned up in their THOUSANDS! The crowd was so massive that the Police under AIG Memuna Conteh-Jalloh, took the wise decision to completely block the Highway and divert traffic away from the modern highway at Newton to the old road.
