New Maldives President – Mohamed Muizzu is Anti-Hindu!!!
Where is it?? Which continent??
Don’t believe in Al Jazeera reporting. They are only reporting propaganda news
Sierra Leone is in West Africa
That would be Africa. Where the world has been robbing their resources for God knows how long.
Africa
West Africa
😢 Africans politician always hid behind the people when they do wrong or steal election
Free Federal Republic of Sierra Leone
Peace 🙏
God please heal our land come to our rescue 🙏🙏🙏
🙏🏾🙏🏾
Ameen
Reminds me of that blood diamond. Still there..
Yes of course sierra Leone is my country
But the country is peaceful we have lot of diamonds but bad leadership
Every where in the internet is just showing violence and commotion.. from middle east to Europe, now Africa..this is crazy..
It was Nigeria that brought peace to the country
Global elites making massive gains off of ensnaring folks in the treadmill of disruptive opportunists’ disaster economics. Wait until you see what the elitist profiteers try pull off on us with their Climate Change Hoax Carbon Tax System.
Our Bangladeshi soldiers served them during the civil war in order to bring peace and stability. They used to sing in Bangla 😢 out of respect. Now I have to witness another disaster.
Stop lying that never happened
@@NathanMatthews.you’re American
@@magnus08f250 I’m bengali
Lol it was Evowas and the Nigerians that did most of the fighting, along with South African mercenaries
@@bigsmoke4568 they’re singing in Bangla to show their gratitude for our service. How ungrateful are you that you are lying here? What’s the name of Nigerian troops. How many of them are in the UN peacekeeping mission. Do you have any idea how many Bangladeshi soldiers served in the peacekeeping world. The largest in the world. You are a liar and a corrupted soul, indeed
Why curfew is the president is legitimate?
Peace.
YARDIM EDİN MERHAMETE YARDIM EDİN ADALETE MEKTUP AŞAĞIDA ALLAH İÇİN OKUYUN
The president committed an electoral coup, and the people are crying for a military takeover to free them. It will happen sooner or later.
Uchaguzi katika hii nchi uangazie uwazi na uadilifu. La sivyo, migogo na mazogo katika jamii zetu yataendelea kujitokeza.
Crazy how one man’s corruption or manipulation of the system can led a country back to war. This guy stole the election because he likes power and now the people will suffer for his greed. Yet he speaks of peace? He started the unrest yet this isn’t new.
Mad men. Africa.
About a month ago, the Nigerian evangelical pastor, Johnson Suleman visited Sierra Leone.. usually these evangelical types are rabble rousers to say the least. I would be worth investigating if these two events are connected somehow.
Delusional
USA doing its thing
It’s Rusia. You lazy people with Useless propaganda. Shame on you. Why can’t you check your fact before maddling the US. Do you think US meddle in such silly acts. When can Nato fail if at all they had an interest.?
You have to prove that allegation, If you have substantial prove that USA is coordinating a coup in Sierra Leone. However, the country is known for coup de tat. Burkina Faso joined this pattern of collapsing governments, with two military coups in 2022. Then, on July 26, 2023, the presidential guard in uranium-rich Niger overthrew democratically elected President Mohamed Bazoum, before the Gabon coup a few weeks later.22 Sept 2023. African security under ECOWAS is the basis for international concerns, to mitigate the risk of external agents, trying to create instability, engulfing Africa in continuous crisis affecting uncivil aggressors from Economic growth, with vast amount of natural resources at disposal of corporate management. Better infrastructure is needed in Sierra Leone, in the wake of high technology, backing the education institutions in the country. Sierra Leone is supposed to be one of the leading economies in Africa, time the country found its place in the map of emerging markets.
When the poor man tries to speak it’s called violent and riots. It’s time for Africa to wake up.
Scary times
Look at capital city. This is embarrassing. Africa, we need to do better. Our selfish politicians are suffering us
We pray 🙏 for peace in Sierra Leone oh Lord
Did this Government Elected or was it as a result of a Coup.
I am surprised you didnt blame the IDF
People are tired of governments.
Our prayers are with the people of Sierra Leone Africa. We have informed Tony of the unfolding events in Sierra Leone. Unfortunately he didn’t take the news so well. May God Almighty keep the people of Sierra Leone safe.
Very discouraging.Sierraleone is your common denominator. For the sake of the innocent lives being lost please put a halt to this .
The president of that country knows whats next
It’s all Bio’s making. He was suppose to release these prisoners per agreement with opposition. Bio you don’t like Sierra Leonians. God will fight you since you like power
