Police in the southern district headquarter town of Bo are investigating a hunter, Alie Barrie, who allegedly shot and killed his co-hunter, Ali Koroma, while they were out hunting around Ngeindema village in the Bumpeh Gao chiefdom.
The Chairman of the Constitutional Review Committee (CRC), Justice Edmund Cowan has appealed to its members to put Sierra Leone ahead of all other interests.
Speaking yesterday at the inaugural meeting of the committee, Justice Cowan said “We should be one. We should be united in whatever we do. We are individuals but our duty is to this nation…”
He went on that the 80-member committee should be mindful of “what we do here” urging that they should strive to “get the results the people want”.
