    I'm embarrassed! My people are from here, brought over and survived slavery for generations! The Krio took the colonialist attitude and separated themselves from their OWN people. "What does it mean to be Krio? We are educated elitists." They are proud of that AND call themselves Christians!

    Stop tribalism alright. I am already tired of it. You eat the same food, live in the same country, breath the same air, go to similar schools, have the same goals for raising children and hope for the future. Why then focus too much on divisiveness and hatred. The last thing sierra Leone people want now is tribal war or prejudices. The brutal civil war of 1990-2002 was caused tremendous problems and pains on the lives of so many. So, enough. So, let move forward already. Focus should be on Peac

    Attention should be improve the health and quality of live for every Sierra Leonean. The whole nation's interest should be considered above all. Focusing only on certain segment of the Sierra Leone population can only undermine the progress done thus far. Emphasis should be on economic equality, which can only be achieved through quality education, the foundation of a nation's economic success and development. Politicians should put aside their personal interests and put the people's interest 1

    Either Krios are still pushing this diplomatic/politically correct act or they are not telling their children the truth. Similarly Native people are not telling their own more civilized children the truth and why they choose not to return to Gbangbatoke and the rest of their native villages. That truth & major difference is FGC/BONDO. Bondo is the main religion/culture in native SL. 90% of the female populace undertake it. And before JUNKS (2nd Hand Clothing) most Natives were tying lappa daily.

    To add to the previous postings, I think politicians have a major role to play in creating ladders of opportunities for all citizens. Corruptions need to be address and to do so, I believe citizens need to peacefully protest when politicians do not carry out the promises they made prior to election and when politicians choose favoritism and self-interest above national interests.

      Same thing. ‘Krio’ is the Sierra Leonean variant.

    Separated themselves from which people? Are they people? Krios have extended themselves to "natives" for generations (although once GEOGRAPHICALLY and still POLITICALLY & LEGALLY separated) and have received nothing but hate and resentment in return. You don't know anything. It's not about education or religion. It's about decorum. Without Krios Sierra Leone would be like Eastern Congo LOL
