SLPP’s Alhaji dances at Samu Chiefdom’s Bondo Soccor
Alhaji! Alhaji! Alhaji!!! How many times have we called your name Alhaji? Usually when men return from Mecca, they avoid to soccor at Bondo dance with nubile women. But Alhaji on Thursday 24th January 2013, we pictured you LIVE alongside defeated “2012 Yumkella” dancing at the Bondo soccor at a time when the Senegalese Marabout had not yet left through the Guinean market-town.

Uncle IB, Cold you heart now Sir
There have been times in the recent past when my heart was sad and despondent. One was the day the IMC took the illegal decision to “ban” my newspaper. I arrived from London that same day to meet the ridiculous news. That whole day until even the next morning, my uncle, the Information Minister Alhaji I.B. Kargbo’s phone was switched off as he rendered himself incommunicado. I am not sure if his boss, the Head of State had tried to reach him but I know I was disappointed that I could not reach him that day as he was my dear uncle.

Dr. Kadi Sesay's Quotable Lamentations in Kenema, Sierra Leone
The SLPP was so rejected by the sober-minded people of Freetown that they could not be said to have won even inside a chicken nest (fowl coop) in Freetown let alone win a councillor seat talk less of a parliamentary seat in Freetown. It can be recalled that in Freetown, citizens are known to always follow political leaders based on the strength of the leader's character. In Freetown, people vote on issues and not on tribe. President Koroma won a landslide victory of almost 72% of votes in Freetown Urban areas and almost 75% of votes in Freetown Rural areas. No President in the entire history of this country has enjoyed the popularity which President Koroma currently enjoys in Freetown. In 2002, at the height of former president Tejan Kabbah’s popularity in the country, he scored only 59% of votes in Freetown.

Humour: Umaru Fofana & 16 Others vote to "Expel" from an over 600-strong SLAJ membership
STORY TIME!! STORY TIME!! My people, come around. I have a story to tell you all. We are living in interesting times. My dear people, with a general membership of well over 600 (SIX HUNDRED) SLAJ members, the embattled SLAJ president Umaru Fofana was not ashamed to have only 29 (twenty nine) people attend his summoned SLAJ meeting yesterday morning and therein call for a vote to "expel" Sylvia Blyden from SLAJ. This is the second time he is calling for such a move. The first time was over the IMC's illegality. He did not succeed back then.

Na Da We Passport! A Sierra Leone Political Satire
Reference: Sierra Leone NPRC passport corruption scandal; NPRC-SLPP Maada Bio’s share was deposited at his UK & Ghana Offshore Bank Accounts. A Criminal prosecution was commenced by Tejan Kabbah SLPP Gov’t for this passport corruption. Former ACC Boss Abdul Tejan Cole was at the UN last week. He has told the world that blood diamonds did not cause the war. Tejan-Cole says Truth & Reconciliation Commission Report reveals such acts of corruption [like passport sales squirreled into Maada Bio’s foreign accounts] led to the state of Poverty the country now finds itself. Such corruption-induced Poverty is what the majority of patriotic Sierra Leoneans are fighting against.

QUOTABLE QUOTE: - ERNEST BAI KOROMA TO THE TRC. (5th August 2003)
“The APC notes with satisfaction that evidence before the TRC underscores the Maladministration of the notorious NPRC junta that carried out many extra-judicial killings and brought mayhem to this nation. We believe it was a mistake on part of the SLPP to grant a safe haven to members of the NPRC without holding them to account for the horrible crimes they committed. In some ways, it could be argued that the license the members of the NPRC enjoyed served as a model of aspiration for the subsequent senseless actions of the AFRC junta. The APC recommends that the extra-judicial killings by the NPRC in December 1992 of former Inspector General of Police James Bambay Kamara, Col Yayah Kanu and Kawuta Dumbuya and others be thoroughly investigated”.

Letter to David Tam Baryoh from Silly Little Asma James
Please can you come and join us in our pro-SLPP radio programme this morning of February 1st 2012? You see we want you badly on the programme because we were unable to set up Dr. Sylvia Blyden as she is way too smart for us and she cleverly molested us instead. So we want you to come instead since you are another of the fiercely independent minds in the journalism landscape and we want to molest all independent journalists who are refusing to toe our SLPP outrageous lines in the media.
