Av never seen a krio who's not a Christian..fourabays are not krio people

Pls help me amount

Brandon Mccrakin Its cuz of how black women are portrayed in the media. The media is a very powerful thing. I blame that all too familiar “I don’t need a man; I can do anything all by myself” bit. Ever since that shit was programmed into all of us; that’s what we see every time we turn on the TV. But really, its the independent strong women thing that screwed it up. Now all u see on TV is strong hard head African american females that make it almost impossible to approach. While the rest of the races seem more down to earth with positive vibes. Not saying that this applies to everyone; but I’m telling you my opinion. That TV is hell on a bun, and everyone is being fed that crap. It is very, extremely disturbing.

Palmira Mangae I don't mean to offend you too, neither do I mean to hurt any of the krios or been tribal sentiment, but we should learn to face the bull by the horns as people always say. I am just buttressing the fact that the krios contribute 60% to the downfall Sierra Leone and I highlighted just two out of the 75 major cases since colonial days. And you are saying why do I have to write this on the internet. My Sierra Leone sister, I can publish this topic on any site or even have a debate on national television. The krios been the first elites of the nation since colonial days and even after independent they hold three-fourth of the key positions of the country, do they actually focus on national development? The answer is big no. Instead they segregate themselves from the rest of the people, they introduce tribalism by focusing only on tribal development. They introduce fraternities and sororities (log) in the country where in they have to take an oath that they should only be in favor of their tribal men, relatives, and friends . They provoke the languages and cultures of the other tribes by giving names like "contry" man or boy. I attendend the Sierra Leone Grammar School which is a typical krio school with the exception of me and some few students that are not krios, the rest of students used to call us contry boys because that's how they are nurtured. They have to separate themselves from us. That why we design a perfect name that suit them which is " mixtures of the mixtures" which means mixtures of tribes, mixtures of countries, and mixtures of cultures. So, when people are talking about krio culture, I just don't see any one unique culture possess by them at all. You mentioned that " Yes, their children tend to go to schools abroad; same as many temnes, konos, mendes, etc, etc. So what is wrong with a quality education? Has that now become a crime in Sierra Leone? " But you forget the fact that Sierra Leone used to be the Athens of Sub-Saharah Africa, we had the first University, Fourah Bay College, 1827. It was managed by 90% of the first elites of Sierra Leone, the krios. If they actually maintain the educational standards of the country, there is no need for a any Sierra Leonean to send his or her child abroad while other nations come to Sierra Leone to get quality education. Take a look at countries like Ghana, Nigeria..etc. where in most of their old elites attended F.B.C and up to these days in these countries, graduates from F.B.C. still cherish their moment and proud of being graduates from this unique university. By the way, I am also a graduate of F.B.C. Today,go to Ghana and see students are coming from all over the world, students from the US, UK Canada..etc. to study medicine, engineering, law...etc. We were far ahead these countries. The Athens of Sub-Sahara Africa, Sierra Leone, has depreciated to below zero standards. Who should we blame other than the first elites of the nation. Sending the children abroad for better education has good impact to the country, but the negative one suppresses the good to Sierra Leone. for instance, most of these students went on scholarship our country pays their tuition & logging fees, and when they finish their studies, they find themselves in developed countries like the US, UK , Canada...etc. And they never try to come back home and contribute towards national developments. Instead they return home when they are already dead. Mother Sierra Leone is always on the loser 's side. But very soon we will start to throw their corpses into the Atlantic ocean. You see, if you are an elder sister or brother do not start bad havoc , your baby sisters or brothers will do the same and the blame goes to you. And when we start to accept our faults then that the only time when we will try to change those attitudes and strive for the betterment of our sweet country. No hard fillings, but this is the truth!!!!!!!!!!

@ Racca Soko are you hating on us Creoles? Because we made Sierra Leone so thats why we have power in Government jobs. And we clearly know where we come from a majority of us are from the Yoruba tribe and some Creoles may have igbo ancestry , we didn't choose to.come to Sierra Leone was forced from our home so get your facts straight. If it wasnt for us Creoles you wouldn't be speaking Krio or be educated. And we are proud of course because we have done alot of good things in Sierra Leone if it wasnt for us Fourah Bay College wouldn't be built and they you go running your teeth at us. God bless all my Creole people worldwide Ekushe Kabor

Bisodun YorubaBorbor, I don't hate you people neither do I hate anyone,but I am just highlighting some of the reasons why our country remain backward, and who are the contributors towards the backwardness of Sierra Leone. You said you (the krios) have done lots of good things in Sierra Leone, please substantiate with examples some of the good things you have done for the country. As far as I know, you have done nothing at national level other than introducing tribalism and tribal development in the country. The tribalism that is in the country today was introduce by the krios far back since colonial days. Looking at the land scope of the country and resources we have, Sierra Leone suppose to be among the richest countries in the world.But are we still poor because of your attitudes. If I could cote what you said from your expression " If it wasn't for us Creoles you wouldn't be speaking Krio or be educated".Please explain how you (the krios) contributed towards my education and towards me speaking the language. Because there are lots of my mates in my village who never went to school, and don't know how to speak English or krio. What contributions have you done towards me. You see, brother from the same country, If you cannot express yourself I prefer you abstain from this argument.

Racca Soko , We Creoles brought alot of culture into Sierra Leone if it wasnt for us none of your country folks would be wearing clothes, speaking krio, being civilized in general. Am not trying to act like we are better but its the fact ''WE MADE SIERRA LEONE'' country people talk down on us saying we dont know where we come from but hey thats what your think our culture hunting nowadays you dont even see alot of Creoles in it, its full of bunch of country people from all over and your saying negative stuff about us we dont hate on nobody. And lets talk about Education all of Sierra Leone wouldnt be Educated today if it wasnt for us we made Fourah Bay College and we are strong in the Education system in Sierra Leone so you cant go there on us. Not to sound a bit tribalist but back then your was not Educated buddy, didnt know how to write, talk a proper word, and today you see alot of country folks trying to imitate us saying ''Mi Na Creole'' wholetime they mende, or some other tribes and your saying we dont have no strong influences. Haha dont even go there with corruption half of the people that is Sierra Leone money is your own kind so blame your own country men dont blame the Creoles because we did alot of part in Sierra Leone so thats why you barely see us in power because we dont no part in it. And thats how Sierra Leone is fucked up today because of your country people your brought the war in Sierra Leone 2 your started cutting people hands off and 3 your sold half of Sierra Leone minerals to foreign countries. We do not sellout Sierra Leone because we was born there and we try to take care of the country but your people dont appreciate it and your eat all the money that suppose to go the economy. I rather represent Nigeria where my ancestors from because Sierra Leone is my adoptive land I was born there but am not too proud of it because of the sick people that lives there.

Bisodun YorubaBorbor The last time I told you if you cannot express yourself stay off the argument. From your expression it clearly exposes facts that you are not one of the true kroi descendants of Sierra Leone. The true Krios in Sierra Leone have no African related cultures.They came from the western world (US and UK) with the white man conservative culture; they introduce fraternities(luge), sororities, wherein they have to take oaths with their blood that they will only help their fellow tribal men and families, in the country.They segregate themselves from the rest of the Sierra Leoneans and focus on tribal development thereby introducing tribalism in Sierra Leone. You said if it wasn't you, the krios, our people would not have clothes to wear. This statement shows how your thinking ability is far below standards. Let me ask you a simple question, how many countries received the repatriated slaves in west Africa? Well, in case you don't know there are only two countries, Sierra Leone and Liberia. And these countries are the list developed in west Africa because of the negative impact of the slaves.Other countries which did not receive slaves are far ahead of us and they even put on better clothes. You said you made Sierra Leone, but in reality,it is you that destroy the country because you were the first educated people in the Sierra Leone during independent,75% of government officials were the krios, in stead of you focus on national development, you only focus on developing your tribe. You are the breeders of all corruption in the country. When it comes to embezzlement of national funds the krios top the chart. FBC which was called the Athens of west Africa depreciated to zero level all because of your selfishness. People imitate you the krios not because they want to be like you, but because it is very easy to be a krio in Sierra leone. Even foreigners from other countries like Ghana, Nigeria are all krios today because they can speak the language. You don't have unique culture at all. As for us the country men for you to be one of us is not a day's job. We have unique languages and cultures. When you talk about real cultures in Sierra Leone, we look at the poro, wandey, sande, gbangbny, geledeh, ojeh,bondo, jolley..etc hunting is considered the list among them. By the way, where did you bring hunting, from the US or UK? You are not a krio,but a lost Nigeria who find himself in a free country like sweet Sierra Leone. No wander you have chosen to represent Nigeria. But I, a true son of that soil will never forsake my country and put any other country first.

mama nayo.....did you go to congo to speak about it?why don't you chek it out in google?please why don't you leave africa and go back to your country in the nebraska or somwhere esle?

🤣🤣🤣🤣
