I want to learn more about Sierra Leone before Barack Obama's final days in the white house I met a family from Sierra Leone I was 24 years old in 2016 I met a beautiful family so kind & warm it was my 1st time meeting a family from Sierra Leone
Sierra Leoneans are the most friendly and accommodating people in the globe. We are religious tolerant
@@aliedskoroma2071 I'd like to meet more Sierra Leoneans by me into film 🎬 & Theatre🎭 my future goal having my own academy for film, theatre, animation, & acting I want to welcome Sierra Leoneans to my school
2022 was when I first had the very same honour. Beautiful people in body soul and spirit. Bless. Theory only knows.
Ohh Sierra Leone. Something really went wrong on the way.
Unbelievable how a people's culture was quashed and then replaced. The Lord Almighty only knows the true capacity in obtaining this said, "independence". Yet we endure.
Looking forward to a prosperous future independence
Happy Independence
We will remain loyal.
