When Sierra Leoneans voted overwhelmingly for “change” in the recently concluded parliamentary and presidential elections, they literally meant that in every sense of the word.  Since then, the “New APC” of President Ernest Bai Koroma has devised some urgent policies and implemented some changes. Electricity has been revived in Freetown and its immediate surroundings with some semblance of dramatic changes made in the public and civil service appointments. President Ernest Bai Koroma’s “New APC” has espoused its policy of zero tolerance for Corruption. The impatient Sierra Leonean voters are however waiting to see the results of the zero tolerance for corruption and other policies which will be devised and implemented.

Freetown, Sierra Leone–Red, green, blue and yellow lights drape the Comium building. A Christmas tree with blinking bulbs is also on display at the offices of the telecommunications company. It is an exceptional sight in the capital city of Freetown, which has been without reliable electricity since the 1980s, thanks to poor governance and civil war.

Street hawkers try to sell Christmas lights but few are buying. Since electricity from the National Power Authority is inadequate, anything with a plug requires a privately owned generator. In a nation recently ranked at the bottom of the UN Human Development Index, the majority of the country is left in the dark.
