I want to advice Concord Times to stick to their good reporting and try to improve on their reporting and standards of first rate journalism, in the absence of any assistance from 11 years of Kabba's governmentto the Press. It is now time for GAME CHANGE. Game change for all of us on deck to adhere to the new President's efforts to eliminate graft and corruption, blatant disregard for law and order, pervasion of justice by corruption in the Courts and endermic poverty that a majority of sierra leoneans are subject to daily. We are literate and should be conscious that we are obliged to take the moral high ground in our lives and profession, to adhere to moral and just causes. Former President Kabba is gone and left a mitigated record that even those illiterate sierra leoneans were able to detect his unmotivated and undevoted cause to serve the poor and the nation of sierra leone during his time.he is stale news. Lets us now focus on the huge task ahead and Concord Times should be in the fore front in educating the new dispensation being designed by the new government and its consequencies for the nation of sierra leone.Lets stop to create personality cults in sierra leone.

Concord Times James Oguogou may have been a role model,But ex-president kabba is not in the remotest sense one of them, and I stand to be disputed and I will respect that.Only a role model as chairperson on such an occasion will promote the event and attract a huge following to attend and I repeat, something I hardly do as a matter of intellectual principle that Pa Kabba is a zero.WHY Pa Kabba made a huge mountain out of a small quarry is that the old trickster wanted to turn the lecture event to his post presidential pose up within the country but, it never work out because people dont want to hang out with him.Remember,the only semblance of publicity he gets this days is outside of the country, whether in Zimbabwe or elsewhere.In the future, role models should be memerialized by their peers not by some controversial figure wearing the wig of statemanship.

You low standard writers that lack a big vision are really going to get a hard time in the new dispensation being designed by Ernest Koroma's government.You see how swift the Anti-Drug smuggling and the new Anti-Corruption Act were passed in parliament? That's going to be the clean-up of the century- old dirty tricks, thinking and attitudes of unpatriotic sierra leoneans. In the next four years we will see how a country is being governed and what exactly is good governance you ignorantly talked about. stop being naive and be a patriot.

What i want to remind folks is that " What goes round comes around ".

Thank God neither the opposition newspaper at the time nor the nation make a big deal out of it. There is blessing for this discovery of cocaine in this government 1. it will bring the menace in our country to the international community attention .2. we has got a plane to transport our cassava leaves from kalaihun to Makeni . what about that.3.Now there is a chance for studies to be conducted , by the government and the people to create way and means to improve in our security measures.

No meeting on governance by soupists such as Kabba and Koroma can be productive for the captured post-modern slaves in the soupist captured territory of Sierra Leone: same "bitta taste," as always.

On Kabba, a publicly declared thief, please: what do you expect on governance from a five finger mousE guarding cheese?

On Koroma, you waste your words: Koroma has publicly stated that he intends to restore "the old [soupist] APC."

Upon reflection, he HAS a right to do so, EVEN IF HE CAMPAIGNED UNDER A DIFFERENT MAXIM; as conditions change, level headed human beings are best advised to change or, even REVERSE previous averments, if their JDUDGMENT new conditions demand a change or reversal; the consequences, however, are his to carry.

On your accusation of a violence prone soupist APC, my friend, if your intention is to cleanse the soupist SLPP of the same, then I make a offer to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge.

Bottom line: From Milton Margai through Albert Margai and Stevens and lesser soupists, it has been violence all the way: soupist political structures have no other weapon but violence in face of DISAGREEMENT, principled or no. When your only tool is a hammer, every problem is a nail, if only you would understand. The historical record is a museum of the infamy of both soupist occupier parties.

I await your reasoned response, a response that addresses the issues, not me, the author, for, obviously, my views are not "me." Of course, any personal attack, SHALL BE IGNORED as irrelevant and, SHALL BE urbanely construed as a glaring sign of BAD BREEDING. LONTA.

What is former President talking about, asking were the ministers? well, to answer him, the ministers are busy clearing the mess he left the country by his flagrant disregard for the well being of sierra leoneans, his lack of consideration for life and property when he was thrown out of power and he sanctioned the use of force and bombs against innocent civilians by foreign forces to get back power, and the way and manner by whih he allowed corruption to flourish by his lameduck attitude towards those government ministers and officials in his government who blantantly committed economic crimes, and worst of all by the reckless disregard for law and order which allow sierra leoneans over the years to practice criminality daylight for finaicial gains even though the Kabba government knew fully well their activities.he should not forget that he will be accountable to those serious economic crimes that have been catalogued in the Transition Report that will be exposed through a commission of enquiry- an enquiry of Kabba's reign of reckless government. he should be thinking of the embarrasment awaiting his reputation about how he turned a blind eye to people close to him and worked for him that capitalised to their proximity with him to commit serious economic crimes against the state and people of sierra leone, for which they will soon be held accountable.kabba, cant you reflect on the collateral damage you caused our beloved country. after you returned back from your self-imposed exile,won elections through fraud and exihibited your ineptness to govern? time has changed and you should not be talking as if you are been accepted as an 'elder statesman' by your former subjects whom you betrayed bigtime. Keep quite, repent and ask forgiveness from Allah,if you are true muslim, and leave Ernest koroma alone. He will deal with those lawless creatures as time go along.

The above 'mess' is just an indication of how ungrateful and shortsighted even highly educated Sierra Leoneans can be. Who cleaned whose mess?The Pa Kabbah SLPP from the Siaka stevens/Momoh APC? I think to all sound minded Sierra Leoneans Pa Kabba brought peace that he should be commended for. Him approving ECOMOG to bomb us in Freetown we could as well ask why his legitimated government was overthrown by Johnny Paul who might have been eaten by vultures in the Gola forest.

Lets say the fact we know APC destroyed the country for over 20 yrs I never enjoyed as a child and brought upon us another 11 yrs of war. Let sleeping dogs lie lets support the current government but our POLICY AS SIERRA LEONEANS SHOULD BE SALONE FIRST NOT A PART. Mohamed Sheriff Johannesburg

Why drag Allah into the matters of a Kafir like Kabba? Not that I care one ioata about your misplaced confidence in the soupist Koroma's prowess in dealing with the criminals in the soupist A. Behold, will you not, that the Soupist A is itself a criminal organization of looters of the treasury of the territory of Sierra Leone?

To be sure, criminals can "deal" with their bedfellows in well-known ways: but, I should think that your decency precludes the applicability of that strategem by Koroma; but, wait and see: he has choice.

Under the logic of parts and wholes, if Koroma voluntarily is an element of a criminal whole, he cannot transcend that whole by springing into its contrary whole: the realm of legality. He knows ex-ante the LETHAL consequences of such imprudent "born againism," and the dude, it is true, may not be Davidson Nicol, but a fool, he ain't.

Accordingly, both Kabba and Koroma are cut from the same cloth: soupists always ready to serve the same "bita tase' in a bowl of bombast and lies.

I Will like to comment in a short but brief word concerning what this colleague is talking about. We are now talking about SLPP; Some of those ministers who were in SLPP, left APC for SLPP - and those were the same individual who were taughts of stealing Government funds under Shiaka Stevens and Joseph Koroma Government. Let's stop being hyprocrites and develop our country or else, we "Sierra Leoneans" will be sitting down someday with our hand in our backsides. I am sorry to say that; but the truth is the truth. If we are going to talk about the truth, let's start talking about it where it begins. Remember when Shiaka Stevens said, where a cow is tied,is where she suppose to eat. Are we seeing the same old APC? What can of an idiot proverb is that? Please help me out on this type of proverb. As a head of state, you NEED to be fair through out the blue line. Mistakes are made, but let's stop making it continously.

I am not talking about the new ministers busy with the left over cocaine scandal, because the evidence will show that these blatant acts started during Kabba's government.I am talking of the ministers working to meet their performance targets in their contracts with the President to bring some economic relief from the mess left over by Kabba's government.Its not about respect and dignity.you earn these attributes, and this goes beyond a subject of a meeting not attended by top government officials.the issue here is the crunch of the unending list of serious problems that are the order of the day for the new government, not for you dwell about misspellings which came about by typing error. you want a debate, come on. what is your sub-standard quote of a'cow will give birth to a goat'? cant you talk straight to the point, you lone ranger?

THE POVERTY, OBSCURITY AND UTTER BOREDOM OF SOUPIST DISCOURSE---the critique of the critiques of soupist personalities of the soupist occupier parties.

________________________________________

Personally and theoretically, I would rather groove to the heavenly rhythms of bubu or the heavenly, soul searing late string quartets of Beethoven than expose my sweet soul to the broken record verbose, virile, and vacuous critiques of the A-S soupist occupiers qua 'personalities': the narrative is always the same////////APC THIS, SLPP THAT; SLPP THIS, APC THAT.

It is this "this, that" that is nauseating: seeped in the poverty of productive ideation, obscured by bad prose, and bone chilling boring.

Forget the A-S puppets. Take a peep at the head puppets of the same: the soupist Koroma and soupist Kabba. Intellectually, they are mice; emotionally, leopards. I have no beef with that, for that is the character profile consonant with soupist politics.

You can yab until you lose your voice about the soupist A's "destruction" of the territory of Sierra Leone; forget not though that Milton Margai, the arch soupist, with his romantic and archaic boot leaking idealization of "Chiefs," and those, like Albert Margai and Siaka Stevens, who resisted him in modus soupist, started the ball of destruction.

Let us face it: independence was sired by a lie, the lie of "national unity," which the devious and Machiavellian with a glove Milton Margai pushed like a crazed pusher of dope in the Streets of Harlem. On the lie of Nationalism, see my posting related thereto elsewhere in this online entity.

Only God can save Sierra Leone from self-imploding; while you wait for the inevitable implosion, absent a 'miracle,' funk your tired and weary soul with the riffs of anti-soupist bubu: regard therein the multiplicity of chords--- from the rythm section, which snakes through the vocal section, and explodes in a festival of luscious difference in the base section, the heart and soul of musique africaine.

Take it easy, and take good care of your body and soul.

My correspondent, Lahai, you are dead wrong on the facts and on your interpetation of the facts.

The mayhem started with the Machiavellian gloved politiking of Milton Margai, the father of lie, lie 'nationalism,' 'united frontist crap' and other unprintable acts of political duplicity. Margai and Stevens and their soupist tails merely raised the intensity of the old fox's venous political game.

That said, the occupier soupists you appear to annoint are a joke: especially, may I suggest, JOHN LEIGH. THIS LESS THAN FIVE FOOT DUDE, an intellectual moron, in my opinion, and political blunderer, again, in my opinion, not only compulsively and boneheadedly waxes in xenophobic crap, but feigns superiority: the superiority of country number zero.

Logic, even FIRST ORDER LOGIC, IF NOT ARISTOTELIAN SYLLOGISTIC LOGIC and elementary NUMBER THEORY in MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS suggest that if one hails from zero, no mathematical sleigHh of hand can create a positive integer from ground zero, en facon de parler.

Anyway, I only relate to soupists ironically; seriously, I take them not. The peoples of the soupist conquered territory of Sierra Leone will deal with the vultures pimping the treasury of the peoples of Sierra Leone APPRORIATELY at the appointed time.

Moreover, soupist discourse bores me to death: groove my soul with some rhythmic tsunamic Bubu.

I suggest you do the same.

REFLECTIONS IN ANTI-SOUPIST SHARP, TIFFY, TIFFY MAJOR ON DIASPORAN OR MAROON SOUPISTS---EXCAVATION SITE: USA. --------------------------------

The Movement of Autonomous African Thinking (TMAAT), BY AND THROUGH jallohlaw, now begins its assault on soupists in the USA. "Assault" is rendered herein as "theoretical disrobing." A focused deconstruction, sometimes destruction, brutal errasure of half-baked theoretical structural formations, stammered nonsense, and plain vanilla venomous crap SHALL UNFOLD, strategically deployed to bring out the worst of humanity from soupist apologists.

1. John Leigh.

This soupist dude, former Ambassador of the soupist occupier State of Sierra Leone under the soupist S, is a allegedly a lawyer, hailing from the State of Massachutssets. It is not clear whether he is active as a US lawyer.

During the Charles Taylor sponsored war in Sierra Leone through the fifth columnist RUF and AFRC, he was the soupist spokesperson for the soupist government of Kabbah, the thief---according to a well-known Commission of Inquiry.

This soupist's favorite modus operandus is to "look down" on his interlocutors and theoretical opponents. Rocking behind these "look downs" is a virile xenophobia, apparently founded on his self-identification as a "Krio."

The significance of the intended privileged self-identification and its alleged civilizational or cultured umph makes sense only in the cognitive zone of IRRATIONALISM. But xenophobes---and make no mistake about it: Leigh is a rock steady xenophobe---are to be disrobed: it is irrational to claim a virtue based on a trait (herein 'tribal' affiliation) that is beyond any individual's control. Ditto for the bogus concept of 'race.' More: it is intellectual obscurantism and moral depravity.

Aren't those---"the intellectual obscurantism," often manifested as "lie, lie, discourse" and "moral depravity" (this one speaks for itself; hence, no glossa thereon is necessary) the unambiguous SIGNALS of soupists?

Anti-Soupist Prophylactic for the xenophobic soupist: The people of the soupist occupied territory of Sierra Leone are tired of this 'tribal' thing, this crappish discourse of 'tribal' superiority based on the crumbs of a xenophobic British Imperialistic ARCHAIC CULTURAL TRADITION.

This soupist is primus xenophobe. Similar to John Leigh, he blithely assumes he is a Krio, descendants of freed slaves in the soupist occupied territory of Sierra Leone. An obscurantist, and intellectually dense, and very bad writer, his special gutter gifts are hurling mammie cusses at his interlocutors and plagiarism (cut and paste Curtis, he has been called, and, in my opinion, accurately).

A. UNFOUNDED HUBBRIS. Tell me people, people of sense, are graduates of medical schools "doctors"? The lay public may thus opine; but in matters of higher understanding no deference should be accorded to lay opinion, ex definitionis. This soupist, ignorantly once tried to refute the obvious fact that graduates of medical schools are technically called "PHYSICIANS." His illogical riposte was that Ph.Ds are not "doctors." The ignoramus does not even understand the cultural tradition on which he hangs the gibberish of HIS misplaced Krio cultural superiority, namely the cultural traditions of Europe. Under those traditions, the Ph.D allows its receipient to append the title "Dr." in front of his or her name or, alternatively, append the suffix Ph.D after his or her mame or, if he or she cares not about titles, to erase the prefix "Dr." or the suffix Ph.D from the inscription of his or her name.

The point? The hubris of an alien in the European Cultural tradition; while there are many, many, non-xenophobic Krios, cut and paste Curtis, the arche plagiarist, is soaked from head to toe in Krio xenophobia.

En passant, unlike Americo-Liberians, there are very few unhyphenated Krios in Sierra Leone; rather one can reasonably speak of "malata-Krios", since almost all self-declared REIN OR PURE Krios carry the blood of what some misguided and ignorant Krios derisively and unapprovingly call "natives" or "countrymen," lexemes originally hurled at the conquered peoples of the Sierra Leone by British imperialists. Accordingly, the Krios who the "cap fits" are cultural agents of British imperialism in soupist occupied Sierra Leone.

Beyond his xenophobic habitus, cut and paste Curtis is the worst writer and batoman in a certain well-known soupist online forum.

Soupist/archxenophobe, cut and paste Curtis Thomas ____________________________________________________________

This obscurantist's cris de couer is the mami cuss: when cornered he pulls the obscene sentence string that anybody can return, anybody who is not dumb.

Now, in the personality of everyone who hails from the occupied soupist territory of Sierra Leone or, just about everyone, lurk two repulsive characteristics: first, to the utter dismay of the world civilized, the habitus of abusing their opponents' mothers: the mami cuss; second, the psychobabble of 'diagnosing' an opponent as "crazy."

Informed readers will note that the lexeme "crazy" is not part of the lexicon of the profession of psychiatry. Now, beyond the ignorance, lies the intent of the crappy pyschobable: to reduce the opponent to utter irrelevance, to dogmatically assert that opponent is incapable of "making sense," for under the discipline of psychiatry, "insanity" means the incapacity, for biological or other triggering factors, of the person thus diagonosed of MAKING SENSE in the commonly accepted sense of sense making in a relative intersubjective world of meanings.

It is possible that cut and paste Curtis, based on the evidence of his published works, is thus infected, but only possibly, for I am a psyschiatrist.

Cut and Paste Curtis is a Krio xenophobe. I have developed a theory of LOndon Krios and Kontry Krios. Now, I am convinced that Cut and Paste Curtis is a Kontry Krio. He is, according to the most reliable information available, a LIMBA raised by a Kontry Krio family, by which I mean a family that characterizes itself as "Krio" (intending thereby the predicate "descendants of the original free slaves" (London Krios), but, in fact is a kontry family, belonging to the many 'tribes' of the occupied territory.

In fact, under my theory, ALL THE LONDON KRIOS, IN MY SENSE, HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED IN THE SOUPIST OCCUPIED TERRITORY OF SIERRA LEONE EITHER BY DEATH OR INTERMARRIAGE.

Accordingly, all self-characterized Krios are such only in the modus FACON DE PARLER OR, WORSE, the manifestations of the worst human desire: the desire to ape the culture of one's enslaver, herein the British slave dealers and their appropriately xenophobic and archaic cultural world.

To deploy the the slave master values against Africans in the soupist occupied territory of Sierra Leone by mixed-up Krios, such as Cut and Paste Curtis, against Africans who had never been enslaved is the apotheosis of lunacy and cultural ignornace.

Quite ignorant. By the abusive and abrasive language you use, one can easily tell you are not skilled in getting your point across. One does not need to use language like "Kontry Krios" and "London Krios". For your information there are a lot of "pure Krios" (what a "pure" Krio is only you know) out there. I am one of your "London Krios"- my parents, grandparents, great grandparents are Krios. There are many Krios (London Krios) out there like me, and some of your statements are not only incendiary by themselves but are clearly tribalistic in nature. I suppose it must sadden you to know that there are many London Krios and among them are Monty Jones, recently honored by Time Magazine.

Who ignorantly calls indigeneous Sierra Leoneans "Natives"? Indigeneous Sierra Leoneans of course! Check the Salone Constitution. There is a clear difference between Krios and Natives LEGALLY. It was not Krios who put those statutes in place. While the British put in the law that Krios could own land in the protectorate(the modern provinces) why has that outdated law not been changed? Come on, while you criticize Mr. Curtis-Thomas-who you say was "brought up" by Krios or who grew up in Limba family which took a Krio name-you yourself put yourself in Mr. Curtis-Thomas class of "cut and paste" by "cutting and pasting" tribalistic comments I have heard elsewhere and putting them on this site.

John Leigh is half Krio, and while he acknowledges his Mende heritage he considers himself a Krio. He hails from one of the oldest Krio families and the name he bears comes from his English ancestor who married a returnee African American slave (OUCH I guess he must be a London Krio).

You know nothing of Krios or about the history of Sierra Leone for that matter. Krios have double barrell surnames because when they intermarry (among themselves) they sometimes attach their maiden name to their new surname or add their godparents name to their surname. Sometimes they even just take their middle name or "ose name" and join it to create names like Wallace-Johnson or Tuboku-Metzger.

Instead of getting your point across you make incendiary and stupid comments, but then again they only reveal your level of intelligence....
