This stability with too much security is being undermined to a very large extent in that the presence of armed military and police personnel are threatening the peace of Sierra Leoneans.
Security personnel have their work stations as always in the case of the police and the military, but they are all over the place almost everywhere. It is so scary in the real sense of peace and stability. And the atmosphere has in close to three years now come a long way in driving investors from the country if not the bad mining and investment policies.
Guns were silenced, except for recent unexpected releases of shots against peaceful protesters in Makeni, Tonko Limba central prison, Tombo and in Lunsar all in the unprofessional name of quelling violent protests, during which scores of innocent civilians were killed in cold blooded under the watchful eyes of peace experts serving as leaders of state governance.
That is not peace at all and something need to be done in bringing those killers to book so that impunity would not just be limited to war criminals but also those being used by politician for the protections of their selfish interests as against the wishes and aspirations tax payers they are governing. Sierra Leoneans deserve peace and tranquillity from whoever is manning the state of affairs.
Since the end of the war all expectations are that there was going to be complete silence of guns, which were actually observed under the leaderships of late former President Alhaji Ahmed Tejan Kabbah and former President Ernest Bai Koroma.
Sierra Leoneans are only experience the proliferations of arms and rampant deployments of armed personnel now under the failed leadership of peace expert president Bio. And it serves as a mere threat to the peace of vulnerable Sierra Leoneans.
Uneasy calm peace atmospheres started manifesting itself I the country since April 14th April 2018, when the Bio SLPP administration was taken by the storm to rule Sierra Leone in interest of peace and smooth transition. Since then to date arms proliferations with the killings of innocent people have always been the order of the day, limiting freedoms and threatening the peace, as if government lack confidence in itself.
The indiscriminate deployments of armed personnel are always manifested whenever there are court sittings involving high profile opposition politician. For instance, the matters of the likes of former Defence Minister and later Internal Affairs, Rtd. Major Paolo Conteh and others are coming up there are always heavily armed police and military deployments if not in the whole country but across Freetown.
Those situations create fears for businesses and investment as most private business houses could not run on Monday when Paolo Conteh’s matter came up. That should not be the new culture of peace and government must put an end to the tricks of creating fears in the minds of the people. Give confidence to foreign investors and the people by reducing the presence of security personnel especially armed men from the streets and see the result your administration stands to get.
The fact that people are restricted of free movements from one point to the other, as well as some other forms of limitations of freedoms, it clearly implies that the country’s peace under the Bio led SLPP administration is not guarantee at all.
So one wonders what the Bradford University Professor David John Francis and others are actually doing around the presidency when they can hardly offer professional advice to the government of the handling of the peace of the country among other developmental issues.
To say the least, peace experts have long cautioned past and present political of Sierra Leone not use fire arms against their people nor threaten the country’s peace as it is now. And no matter the situation Sierra Leone will never revert to the odd old days to please selfish politicians and their political parties.
Besides too much securing of the people is not consolidating the peace of Sierra Leoneans, so president and your SLPP governors call your guards to order now and let peace prevail once more on mother Sierra Leone’s earth.
