More than five years after the disappearance of Ibrahim Sesay, Africa24 newspaper can authoritatively revealed that stakeholders, community leaders, religious leaders have recently vowed that he (Ibrahim Sesay) will suffer fatal and deadly consequences for bringing total shame and disgrace to them anytime the set eyes on him.
According to investigation carried out by Africa24 newspaper, a Sierra Leonean Ibrahim Sesay, 24, born in a family of four to Mr. Mohamed Sesay and Adama Kanu in a small village called Mambol in Port Loko district northwestern Sierra Leone, has found himself in a serious problem and now being persecuted by his own father, community stakeholders and religious leaders.
According to our report, growing up as a kid in the village, Ibrahim used to play with his sister and her friends instead of his male colleagues which is not tolerated in many homes in Sierra Leone, believing it will lead to indecent behavour. Ibrahim’s persistence to associate and play with these girls everywhere angered them most and was reported to his father.
Credible sources told this medium that, his father became angry, beat him up and later on cautioned him not to follow or play with girls any longer as they were not his mates.
Reports further stated that Ibrahim’s continuous association with these girls made him to start behaving like a homosexual (gay), a practice which is regarded in Sierra Leone as unholy and indecent and therefore completely abhorred.
During the course of our fact findings, sources revealed to this medium that to prevent Ibrahim from any trouble when he was 14, his father decided that he stays with his mother and was only allowed to leave the house to go to school. He was cut off from friends. This made him lonely and bored.
Report went on that one day, while alone in the house, he decided to enter his sister’s room and started to pack her laundries, but his mother became annoyed and scolded him that such was not men more so when he had earlier been told never to enter his sister’s room. His mother, threatened to tell his father who will punish him if he ever dare again.
With all these measures, Ibrahim’s gay orientation continued to develop. Close sources disclosed to thids medium that one day, he decided to leave his own room to go and sleep with his cousin Ahmidu in one of the houses his father had built for his aunt to avoid the argument between his father and uncle over farm issues.
Reports say when their neighbours house got burned down, they were rescued by Ibrahim’s father who suggested that Ibrahim should sleep with one of the children Sorie almost of his age.
Every night, Ibrahim will attempt to have sex with Sorie, but fear of backlash until Sorie who noticed this evil act decided to leave the house and go to another village.
Ibrahim is reported to have also made similar attempt to another young man called Shaku when their Shaku’s club called “TAMARANEH” (group formed for self-help) had gone to work in their farm.
Sources have it that Shaku rebuffed all the romantic and sexual advances Ibrahim made to him.
Further sources say, sometime in December 2016 when Ibrahim was 16, a carpenter and his apprentice Santigie went to their house to repair their leaking roof and his father told him to accommodate Santigie until the work is done.
At first, Ibrahim thought his father had wanted to test him of his suspicious homosexuality. Quickly, Ibrahim got attracted to Santigie and became very generous him by providing food also in order to get closer to Santigie, Ibrahim decided to follow them daily to work at the site.
Santigie also became happier over his new friend’s generosity and unlike others, accepted his sexual advancements.
They kept the unhealthy and unholy relationship in secret and were having sex in different areas including toilets and in the bush.
The pair however, ran out of luck the morning Santigie and his boss were to leave after completion of the work. They were surprisingly caught by Santigie’s boss in their room completely naked and dead asleep after making love that night.
The man shouted and called Mr. Sesay and his wife. His screaming attracted many other people who rushed to the scene with all sorts of weapons including sticks and stone thinking it was a thief.
The people had wanted to severely deal with them for the abominable act, but they were lucky to escape naked and ran away.
According to information, the two friends went to Santigie’s village Dotolon where they were able to get few items and money before heading to Freetown where they spent between 2 and 3 months sleeping under market stalls for fear being caught.
Ibrahim and his gay partner finally decided to leave to an unknown location.
Credible information intimated this medium that Ibrahim has however expressed fear that he would be persecuted again or go through other untold sufferings from his own family and other people if he ever dare surfaces anywhere in Sierra Leone as his security is not guaranteed.
