HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MR PROGRESS – FORMER PRESIDENT ERNEST BAI KOROMA
By Kabs Kanu
Happy birthday to you, former President Ernest Bai Koroma .
May God richly bless you for bringing Sierra Leone a new dimension of national politics built around the pillars of good governance, democracy , respect for fundamental human rights , infrastructure, human development, agriculture, health care , a strong and vibrant economy, ethnic balance etc. You were one of a kind and you will always remain so.
Today, the whole nation is missing you. Your benevolent, kind and inclusive leadership and the magnificent legacies in national development you left will always stand the test of time.
During your tenure, Sierra Leoneans were safe and secure. .The whole nation was in peace and people went about their daily business with serenity and peace.
Nobody will ever take away from you the laurels and honor you achieved in power.
People can say whatever they want, but one fact that cannot be denied is that President Koroma made a big difference in power. He changed the face nation with his road and other infrastructural accomplishments . He brought a renewed sense of pride in the people of Sierra Leone through these same infrastructural and other developments which have extricated Sierra Leoneans from their former world of shame and embarrassment at the deplorable depths their country had sunk under successive leaders.
When we look at all your socio-economic and political developments which surpass what other presidents have ever done for our country, we feel very proud of you and thank God for the privilege of being part of your team.
May God continue to bless you in all your endeavours and protect you from the evil ones jealous of your accomplishments.
