Sierra Leoneans: Stop. Before you apply for a U.S. visa, know this, your fee will be lost. Interviews this week show DV and other visas are being denied under 212(f) with no appeal and no exceptions. Do not apply until the policy changes.

They killed every single powerful person who was a potential threat to them .

@JustMeBeingMe4 @samurakamara201 @hafiesorie He betrayed those who voted for him, snuck into Bio’s house for a secret meeting, then flipped. Keep the faith if you want, but the masses have moved on. 👋🏾

[Mountain News SL @MountNSL]

Sierra Leone, stand up! @samurakamara201 betrayed those who believed in him; he held a secret meeting with Bio and sold out. @hafiesorie is fanning burnt-out embers. The idea the international community fighting for you is a dream. We must rise and demand real change!

[Mountain News SL @MountNSL]

Whether it’s the West or East, we must wise up. No one will save us but us. Leadership that puts Sierra Leone first - economically and politically is non-negotiable. The time to rise is now. ✊🇸🇱

[Mountain News SL @MountNSL]

China, on the other hand, is drowning us in debt while building roads and bridges. Looks shiny now, but it’s a long-term trap. Generations yet unborn will carry this burden. 🏗️💸🇨🇳

@tonkolili Bingo! Tok nor to load na ed.

Sierra Leone’s gov’t sinks deeper into tyranny; armed police allegedly ordered by IG Sellu savagely beat an AYV journalist on duty. Press freedom is under siege, dissent crushed in public view. Is this democracy or dictatorship? #FreePress #SierraLeone @AmnestyWARO

The Africanist Press & MFWA's WANAMDEL sound the alarm on Sierra Leone’s Counter-Terrorism Bill 2024. Vague, sweeping provisions risk criminalizing journalism, protests & whistleblowing. Urgent reforms needed to protect rights. #PressFreedom #SierraLeone #HumanRights

[Mountain News SL @MountNSL]

Sierra Leone bans child marriage — a win for girls! But political arrests, police brutality & unfair laws show rights still under threat. “Kush” drug crisis explodes. Progress? Maybe. But don’t be fooled by headlines. #HumanRights #Africa #SierraLeone

Your voice matters. You have the right to say what you think, share information and demand a better world. You also have the right to agree or disagree with those in power, and to express these opinions in peaceful protests.

Today, and every day, we must #ProtectTheProtest.

The EU talks “partnership” with Africa—then slams the door shut. New research slams Schengen visa rules as discriminatory, hurting EU-Africa ties. High rejection rates, no proof they stop overstaying. Just more red tape, less respect. #EU #Africa #VisaGate https://t.co/wtmBeoeIIp

[George Galloway @georgegalloway]

Only fools send their children to America to be educated. Only fools bank their personal or sovereign wealth in America - or Europe - and expect it to be secure. Build your own universities and your own banks. Stop worshipping the west. Have some dignity.

@ecowas_cedeao Trump is already frowning 🙁, but it's time for the continent - the region to stand strong and shove for its position.

[Mountain News SL @MountNSL]

🚨 BREAKING: Sierra Leone among countries facing sharply restricted US visa policies under Trump's proposed travel ban! 🛂⚠️

Citizens may see tighter visa rules if govt. doesn’t meet US demands in 60 days. #TravelBan #SierraLeone

[Mountain News SL @MountNSL]

@AlphajorbaBah @ecowas_cedeao Bio’s buddy and lecturer has done it again. Toothless @ecowas_cedeao is losing every aspect of its integrity. We wait to see how Sierra Leoneans will handle a similar situation.

I left #freetown at night, in a ferry across the lagoon. My work has been destroyed. My colleague Joseph Turay fears for his life. There's no press freedom in #sierraleone Thanks for your support! @RTLnieuws
