DR Congo fan Kuka Muladinga has been spotted standing in a powerful pose during their matches before and during AFCON.
He is imitating Patrice Lumumba, the country’s first prime minister in the early 1960s.
The stance mirrors the pose on Lumumba’s memorial statue in Kinshasa.

The Kidnapping of Susan Thoronka exposes a serious failure by the Sierra Leone Police
How can someone be kidnapped in a taxi from Freetown to Waterloo, pass through several police checkpoints, and still end up in Masakia without being stopped??
What exactly are these checkpoints for if crimes like this go unnoticed???

Finding Susan alive is a relief, but it does not excuse the negligence.
The police must explain how this happened and take responsibility.

Public safety cannot be compromised.

This Sunday evening, December 21, 2025, at Spur Loop Junction, Wilberforce West of Freetown, I took this photo of Edmond Abu Jr. of Native Consortium.

For Edmond, he was simply boarding a public transport. But for me, as a journalist, I see this as newsworthy. Edmond has long been an advocate for accessible and affordable transportation for all, and using this mode of transport places him in a better position to truly understand the challenges commuters face.

I would like to see more government functionaries and advocates interacting with the masses at this level, so they can genuinely understand what is happening on the ground. This should not be done because one does not have a car, but deliberately to experience and understand the suffering of the masses firsthand.

The UK government has announced aid cuts that could affect Sierra Leone, drawing criticism from charities and development groups.

The Labour government under Prime Minister Keir Starmer plans to reduce overseas aid spending, including support linked to Sierra Leone.

UK officials say the decision is driven by domestic budget pressure, but aid groups warn it could hurt health, education, and poverty-reduction programmes.

The move has sparked debate over Britain’s responsibility to vulnerable countries and the long-term impact of cutting development support.
