FIAN-Belgium: Killing Sierra Leone Slowly

A case report recently published by FIAN’s international, an international human rights organization continued to project Sierra Leone in a terrible and appalling manner to the international community, if the government continues to make lip service on these burning issues.

The mandate of FIAN’s according to them is to expose violations of people’s right to food wherever they may occur and also stand up against unjust and oppressive practices that prevent people from feeding themselves. Where the foods shortages in Sahn-Malen Chiefdom that FIAN are talking about? Where are the unjust and oppressive practices going on Malen-Chiefdom? The Paramount Chief of Sahn-Malen Chiefdom who is the legal custodian in the chiefdom has time without number explains to Sierra Leoneans and the world that his chiefdom is growing rapidly since the inception of the agricultural company. What else FIAN’s want to hear? FIAN’s rely only on ‘cock and bull story’.

Paramount Chief Kebbie has made it abundantly clear that the unnecessary meddling and interference by local and international Civil Society Organizations in his chiefdom since the commencement of Socfin Agricultural Company is the crux of the problem in Malen Chiefdom.

“If only these Civil Society Organizations will mind their business and concentrate on better activities in helping the country to grow it will be good for us as a nation,” he said.

“All the reports they are publishing against the chiefdom by using hapless villagers to say something wrong about the chiefdom is fictitious and false”.

The Government of President Julius Maada Bio should act wisely and not allowed FIAN’s Belgium and other International Organizations like Enda Pronat, GRAIN, ReAct, SOS Faim, among others to destroy Sierra Leone  to genuine investors who are closely monitoring the Socfin episode strongly.

FIAN’s-Belgium continues to frustrate genuine investors that are coming to invest in the country by means of creating jobs for our jobless youths.

This writer is challenging FIAN-Belgium to points at any development they have done in Sierra Leone for our people, all what they are doing is to work with local Civil Society Organizations to uncovered fictitious information about the agricultural company.

Everyone knows that the agricultural company is not 100% perfect, but portraying all sorts of gibberish against genuine investors have the propensity to scarce investors out of the country.

Sierra Leoneans are tired with the incessant land grabbing issues by FIAN’s and ilk’s  in their quest to solicit funding from their superiors who are doing all sorts of negative propaganda in discouraging the agricultural outfit to back-off from Sierra Leone.

Some of us know the agenda of FIAN’s, how many investors have you bring to Sierra Leone? Go to Sahn-Malen and see for yourself how the local economy is helping the chiefdom people in transforming their lives.

The demonstration at the ING Bank sometimes ago by FIAN’s and other organizations in demonstrating to the bank not to give loan to the agricultural company for an extension of the Mill in Malen Chiefdom shows the real face of the Belgian organization bent on destroying Sierra Leone to the international world.

FIAN’s and other ill-gotten organizations demonstrated ruthlessly to the bank not to give the loan to the company which will eventually create more jobs for Sierra Leoneans and also boosts the country economy.

FIAN’s should stop the campaign of calumny against genuine investors that have love for the people of Sierra Leone. Let common sense prevail.
