Mrs Philomena Yumkella at the Don Bosco Fambul home in Freetown, sharing Christmas meal with the children , bringing happiness to one child at a time. #SierraLeone
Our efforts to end girl child female genital mutilation through community sensitisation and the enactment of legislation continues unabated #EndFGM#SierraLeone@AmnetAdvocacy
@tonkolili@TheOnion@Ladyfatimabio Sadly the story was no joke. It highlights how laws that were primarily meant to protect women are being misused to persecute them. Very unfortunate.
Dr Yumkella met with a bore hole and slab expert in the north east region and to see how he can help rebuild the lives of the people in those remote communities with toilets facilities and some bore hole for clean drinking water as he believes water is life. #SierraLeone
Fanta won top prize at #socialgood summit 2017 having innovated a solar and wind-powered generator to provide clean energy in her community in Kenema #SierraLeone. Could you be our next winner? Applications close today https://t.co/ERtr86Va2g #2030NOW
@KofiAnnan was a virtue of selfless humanity who epitomized competent global leadership, #humanrights & #peacebuilding. We will remember the 1st @UN Secretary General from #Subsaharan#Africa for his tireless efforts to end the conflict in #SierraLeone and get justice for victims
This isn’t just a political party issue it is scl & cultural, speaking to the very fabric of our sty. A sty very loyal to the centering, enhancing and progression of, middle-aged and young, men. This prioritization is what I like to refer to as patriarchy unchecked #SierraLeone
I found a range of differences. For eg, the results show that in #Mozambique, one of the poorest countries on the continent, women participated more than men. The gender gap is also smaller in #SierraLeone than it is #Liberia https://t.co/WJrC51ny8F
We wholeheartedly and in the strongest possible terms condemn the verbal and physical attack on @yakisawyerr Mayor of #Freetown#SierraLeone. Yesterday's attack is but another example of the immense challenge women in general and those involved in politics continue to face.
