Peep Sierra Leone

1. When is AFISATU taking the BBC and local correspondent UMARU FOFANA to court for criminal and defamatory libel? I was abroad when I read her furious denunciation of poor Umaru on the Net.

According to her, she was not arrested and the ACC jusdt called her round for Tea and Biscuits and to compliment her on her stylisth mafele. Is she really going to let such ‘irresponsible’ (but true) journalism go unchallenged? Try and see if the case can be heard before ‘JUSTICE’ TOLLA (no friend of Press Freedom ha! ha!).

2. Can anyone guess the IDENTITY of the publicist to whom AFISATU was paying 10 million a month? Send your suggestions to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or text 076-609-894. Results of poll in upcoming issues...

3. Can’t we pay our Marine Minister by quota? The more fish landed, more income raised... the bigger the salary? Wouldn’t this kind of piece work result in ‘running the Marine Ministry like a BUSINESS’?

4. Which other BUSY BEAVER is engaged in squirrelling away funds from his/her Ministry a la AFISATU?
