THE NOTORIOUS WESTSIDE BOYS BEING USED AS SECURITY BY MAADA BIO : PHOTO CREDIT-AWARENESS TIMES

 

The Retired Brigadier is reported to have ignored both the Police verbal instruction and the Police stop signal and bulldozed his way.This refusal to heed to the Police warning almost led to a confrontation between his bodyguards and the Presidential Security guards who were constrained to forcibly divert the convoy of the Retired Brigadier to give way to His Excellency the President’s convoy.The incident caused fear and panic to by-standers and on-lookers.Police Headquarters views this action of Retired Brigadier Julius Maada Bio as DISREGARD FOR LAW AND ORDER AND A THREAT TO SECURITY.

  1. My comrades,

    I believe the SLPP have no choice but to accept the fact that this is the time of Prsident Koroma so nothing will spoil God,s graceful acceptance.

    So i am sure even the devils are in favor of the chosen Leader and that can the ANGELs of God give witness for.
