I know very well that my freedom is incomplete without the freedom of marginalized women and girls across the globe.

“Sierra Leone used to be the Athens of West Africa, but as an Athens, they were producing philosophers, and philosophers cannot win wars, they cannot construct bridges or houses. Philosophers cannot apply technical skills to solve the evolving issues of our present society.

I celebrated Nelson Mandela Day with 21 kush addicts at Kroo Bay community. We discussed the dangers of drugs to young people, economic impacts, and security threats posed by drugs. I inspired them to think big and see themselves as key players in nation building ./

It was not a lack of ability that limited women in the community, but a lack of technical opportunities to serve the community.

At 63, there has been freedom only for a few individuals, and none for the millions of our people, who have no homes, and no water,who are exploited every day in the workplace,and who are unemployed. At 63 about above 60% of Sierra Leoneans live below $1 per day. #Accountability

Despite global progress, 800 women die each day from preventable causes due to pregnancy and childbirth. Today, we acknowledge every person’s right to high-quality maternal health care that is respectful, accessible, equitable, and prioritized within global health care systems.

Sierra Leone known as Athens of West Africa was only producing scholars, and scholars could not construct bridges or houses. Scholars may not apply specialized skills to solve the evolving issues of our present society. Sierra Leone needs technical skills to move forward.
