Bio Sacks 9 State House Staff

Embattled President Julius Maada Bio had initiated a clean-up process and the first target is the Statehouse itself. Nine staff members were abruptly dismissed, leaving a trail of shock and uncertainty in their wake.

Among those affected was Mr. Raymond De Sousa George, a prominent figure who had run for mayor in the past. He had served as the Senior Presidential Adviser Ambassador at Large for Heritage & Culture, bringing a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table. His departure left a void that would be difficult to fill.

Dr. Patrick Kagbeni Muana, the Senior Presidential Adviser and Head of Strategic Communications, was another casualty of the sweeping changes. Known for his articulate speeches and strategic messaging, he had been a trusted voice in the President’s inner circle. Now, his absence would leave the administration struggling to navigate the treacherous waters of public opinion.

The other dismissed staff members were equally prominent and influential in their respective roles. Dr. Kona Cecilia Koroma, Special Adviser to the President, had been a close confidante, offering valuable insights and guidance. Amb. Dr. Umaru Bundu Wurie, Special Adviser to the President, had been instrumental in shaping foreign policy and strengthening international relations.

Amb. Dr. Brima Patrick Kapuwa, the Presidential Adviser on Political Affairs, had played a pivotal role in the President’s political campaigns and policy development. Mr. John O. Benjamin, Senior Adviser to the President, had been a trusted ally, providing astute advice on matters of governance and administration.

Dr. John E. Tambi, Chairman of the Office of Presidential Infrastructure Initiative, had been at the forefront of spearheading ambitious infrastructure projects. Maj. Gen. (Rtd.) Mohamed M. Keita, the Presidential Adviser on National Security, had dedicated his career to safeguarding the nation from internal and external threats. Mr. Augustine Boss Fallay, another Presidential Adviser, had been a versatile asset, offering guidance on a range of issues.

The shockwave of the dismissals reverberated throughout Statehouse. The remaining staff members were left in a state of uncertainty and fear. Whispers filled the corridors as rumors swirled about the reasons behind the sackings. Some believed it was a purge to eliminate perceived threats, while others speculated about internal power struggles.

The President’s decision sent shockwaves throughout the country, causing a ripple effect across the political landscape. Critics questioned the motives behind the dismissals, raising concerns about transparency and accountability. Supporters of the President, on the other hand, applauded the move, believing it to be a necessary step toward eradicating corruption and inefficiency.

As the news reached the public, the sacked staff members found themselves thrust into the limelight. Media outlets clamored for interviews, seeking to uncover the truth behind their sudden departures. Each of them maintained their dignity and composure, refraining from publicly criticizing the President or divulging confidential information.

Our sources have revealed that in the coming days Statehouse will undergo a period of transition and reorganisation. New faces may the vacant positions and the President’s vision is expected to take shape once again.

The dramatic events that are about to unfolded would forever be etched in the annals of Statehouse, serving as a reminder of the ever-shifting tides of power.
