Concerned Sierra Leoneans: Sierra Leone Telegraph: 13 March 2021:
We write to formally draw your attention to our growing concerns with respect to the unmitigated violations of human, civil and political rights, and the industrial scale corruption within the echelons of the current government led by President Julius Maada Bio. Bio’s government came to power on the back of firm promises to, inter alia, fight corruption and lawlessness; to foster peace and tranquillity by ensuring full respect for, and the protection of, every Sierra Leonean’s civil, political and human rights. However, the reality on the ground today cannot be further from the literature in Bio’s election manifesto.
New park equipment across from Paynesville City Hall
The Paynesville City Corporation (PCC), with support from People’s Republic of China and other partners, has officially opened the Paynesville City Hall Community Park for kids.
The opening ceremony was held on Tuesday, December 15, at the park just aross the street from the Paynesville City Hall.
Paynesville is the largest City in Liberia with a growing population of over 500,000 inhabitants, based on the encore of 2018.
The construction of the park, which contains a basketball court, seating facilities and several playground equipment, came as a result of the Chinese Government’s offer to the City government in 2017 to build a basketball court, under the leadership of then City Mayor, Madam C. Cyvette Gibson.
