Reports reaching this medium have intimated that one Mohamed Sulaiman Kabia-Turay a born of Makeni City located in the Northern Province of the Republic of Sierra Leone was among many other youths that protested against the transfer of a power generator from its station in Makeni to the Lungi International Airport on July 18, 2020.

On that rainy day over hundreds of youth gathered in Makeni to protest against the movement of a power supply generator to Lungi International Airport fearing that it will cut off electricity supply in that part of the country.

Sierra Leone’s power supply generation capacity is inadequate for the needs of its estimated 7 million citizens.

Prolonged and intermittent electricity is a common practice in the capital city and rural areas, as this unsolved menace is a source of frustration for the people of Makeni.

Sources reaching this medium have disclosed that Mohamed Sulaiman Kabia Turay was clearly seen among hundreds of youths that allegedly resisted and challenged Military personnel and OSD officers in a face to face confrontation during the deadly protest.

Makeni is popularly known for its strong loyalty and support to the main opposition All People’s Congress Party (APC) as it is the home town of former President Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma who was then Chairman and Leader of the APC party.

Confirmed sources have also disclosed that about four people including a teenager were reported dead and ten wounded.

Sources informed this medium that both the police and soldiers began firing into the sky to disperse the angry crowd, adding that some youth who were directly involved in the protest including Mohamed Sulaiman Kabia Turay were fortunate to have escaped on that day.

Report furthered that the protesters retaliated against the security force by pelting stones while security forces kept on firing live rounds bullet towards the protesters.

Following the sudden escape of Mohamed Sulaiman Kabia-Turay, OSD officers, soldiers and loyal thugs of Sierra Leone People’s Party went on a searching spree at his house, but was nowhere to be found.

Furthermore, reports monitored by this medium revealed that a death threat warning was left for Mohamed “that any time or anywhere he is seen that will be his demise for his alleged involvement in the protest against the SLPP led government of President Julius Maada Bio.”

They described the action of Mohamed and other youth as rebellious. In a press statement put out late on Saturday by the government stated that the government was aware of a “potential loss of lives”, without providing details.

The statement furthered that any attempt to undermine public peace would be met with “the fullest force of the law.”

Since Mohamed disappeared on that fateful day his exact location cannot be found.

As we went to press, reports added that SLPP thugs who were assigned to search for him have promised not to rest until they lay their bare hands on Mohamed.

These disgruntled SLPP thugs have vowed to teach Mohamed a great deal of life’s lesson which himself will not live to tell the story.

An irate SLPP thug stated that he will personally kill Mohamed wherever he finds him.

Following the 2018 elections that ushered in President Dr. Julius Maada Bio’s SLPP government many supporters loyal to the main opposition APC party that were identified as very active have suffered bitter confrontation at the hands of these SLPP thugs while some have lost their lives and properties in the process of fleeing from these thugs.

Sources within the confines of SLPP thugs have disclosed to this medium that Mohamed Sulaiman Kabia Turay could not be an exception, adding that he can continue to hide as long as he can, but will surely ran out of luck.
