Sierra Leone News ( & the Ebola Crisis )
Thoughts from a patriotic Sierra Leonean, now living in Birmingham, UK
Home
I am Rev. Pastor Kai Njamahun.(BSc Hon-Mental Health)
and I worked as a Missionary in Sierra Leone (1984-1999)
I am now dual nationality, British and Sierra Leonean
Having left Sierra Leone 14 years ago, I am now giving an account of the problems faced by SL, from my new home in Birmingham. I make occasional return visits and communicate regularly with friends and family in Africa.
I hope you find this information informative about the problems that SL faces, the historical background, the complexity of the issues and the huge difficulties that ordinary Sierra Leoneans face.

In particular, I am trying to establish a fund for a "Village Dry Toilet Fund Project" that I am setting up in an effort to provide better sanitation in small villages / towns
My blog entries will follow below.

Some good news ...
At last comes the long awaited good news - The Ebola death toll has been declassified according to the World Health Organisation (WHO.) What is the next plan regarding adequate sanitation and drainage systems? Everyone has a role to play, children, mothers, and men. Let's prepare our nation for the future uncertainty. Are you in?
A Mens !
On a lighter note, this is what I found on a trip to London recently. Public Toilets seem to be a disappearing building - especially in Birmingham!
Proper sanitation
The proportion of citizens with access to a proper sanitation facility
Free Town ( 2012) according to (IRIN) Aid agencies. The number of cholera Patient was 250 per day. whilst most of the patient where said to come from the Free town unban slums. Where there are few or no clean toilets. People defecate openly usually close to open wells or water source for 75% of the city population. (WHO)Lack of proper sanitation has been the biggest killer In Africa for over a century, but still there's no agreement among the authorities or other agencies to fight against this debilitating course of deaths.
1. look at UNICEF response to sanitation regarding cholera in Africa. Unless the number of people affected/death are statistically represented. Order wise there will be no funding from Central Bank.
2.Water and sewage system till remains a disaster which exacerbate the rapid increase of new commonly founded diseases, such as Ebola.
3. The increase of citizens living in slums in Free Town Sierra Leone, is a growing concern.
