Sierra Leone is divided into four administrative regions: the Northern Province, Eastern Province, Southern Province and the Western Area; which are subdivided into fourteen districts. Each district has its own directly elected local government known as district council, headed by a council chairman, in whom local executive authority is vested. The population of Sierra Leone comprises about sixteen ethnic groups, each with its own language and custom. The two largest and most influential are the Temne and the Mende. The Temne are predominantly found in the north of the country; while the Mende are predominant in the south-east. Currently, Sierra Leone enjoys political stability and economic growth and she is one of the most religious tolerant nations in the world.

Everyday Hero: Betty Knight

Updated: 06 Dec 2013

Nearing her 50th birthday, Betty Knight recalls "thinking about how I could take my passion for lifelong education and learning and combine it with the celebration of a half century of life." A teacher herself, education is extremely important to Mrs. Knight. "I went to hear Stephen Lewis speak about the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals. It was after that when I realized that it was all well and good for me to write a cheque, but I said to myself 'I actually need to do something,'" Knight explains. In what she calls her "Popeye moment," Lewis inspired her to contact CAUSE Canada, a small NGO that works on community development, education, and health projects in developing nations, to coordinate a plan of action. A teacher herself, funding an elementary school build in Sierra Leone was decidedly a good fit. A short time later, Knight had raised over $40,000 to build a school in the Koinadugu Region of Northern Province in Sierra Leone, West Africa. After completing the first school-building project, Betty has continued to lend her support to the area, funding the rehabilitation of another school and a program to provide breakfast and lunch at the two schools. She has since raised visited the area three times with her husband, Jamie, to conduct workshops for teachers.

INTERVIEW WITH MAADA BIO

Order: Reorder
Duration: 13:21
Updated: 08 Dec 2013

Maada Bio understands the ideals of community, faith and service because they've defined his life. From his heroic service to Liberia to his years as lieutenant, through the Sierra Leone civil war, he has devoted himself to this country. Again and again, we've seen him make tough choices when easier ones were available. His values and his record affirm what is best in us. In the story of Cain and Abel, the biblical story of Adam and Eve's children, Cain slew his brother in a fit of jealousy. When he came home and the Lord asked him, "Where is your brother?" Cain answered that he didn't know. "Am I my brother's keeper?" Yes, you are your brother's keeper! Your brother is also your keeper. If everyone were to be each other's keeper, no one would be unsafe or uncared for. Each person would have someone looking out for him or her no matter who they are or what is happening around them. It would be utopia. Maada Bio believes in the constitutional freedoms that have made our party the envy of our country, and no SLPP member will ever sacrifice our basic liberties nor use tribe or region as a wedge to divide us. We all believe in the SLPP ideals. And we all know that it's not enough for just some of us to prosper. For alongside our famous individualism, there's another ingredient in the Sierra Leone saga, a belief that we are all connected as one people. If there's a child on the northern province who can't read or go to school, that matters to Maada Bio, even if it's not his family. If there's a family somewhere who can't pay for their hospital treatment and having to choose between medicine and food, that makes Maada Bio's life poorer, even if it's not his family. If there's an SLPP family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney or due process that threatens Maada Bio's civil liberties too. It is that fundamental belief -- I am my brother's keeper, I am my sisters' keeper -- that makes our party work. It's what allows us to pursue our individual dreams, yet still come together as a single SLPP family: "E pluribus unum," out of many, one.

Top Big Sean, Sierra Leone

She tell me she love me
I'm everything that she want
Top floor, only way that we go
Diamonds and gold, Sierra Leone, Leone
Hotel look like Sierra Leone, Leone
Chain, ring look like Sierra Leone, Leone
And she don't ever tell me I'm wrong, I'm wrong
Cause she don't want to leave Sierra Leone, Leone
Get to it, I be getting to it
Hella groovin', rooftop, better viewin'
Always hella coppin', no propellers, moving bank tellers
Movin', youngin', revenuin', mozzarella chewin', you know?
Lobster butter basted
I deserve every crumb tasted, road to riches one way and
Sunbathing, tongue tastin'
After that she wine tasting, Sean tastin'
You know? I gave her diamonds and gold
That's Sierra Leone, her friends like "Girl don't let go!"
So she ain't askin', she ain't whinin'
Complainin' or trippin', man I got her damn near strippin'
For the handbag livin', Saks Fifth'n, tag rippin'
No more tab splittin', cab gettin', who wants to go back to that livin'? Do yah?
So let's sex on the beach
Then the rest on the sheets for the rest of the week, 'til
What you know about wake up to fuckin' 'fore you even can stretch?
Yeah I'm on vacay and my dick still need a rest
I might get her on film, star and direct
Just might win an award if that shit hit the net
Oh, reclinin' in seats
Not liftin' a finger 'less I'm signin' receipts
Livin' life like I got a degree
Fuck it, I'm livin' life like I done got in the league
Look, my car look like it play for the Lakers
Credit card look like it play for the Raiders, I watch it play for the paper
Chandelier, marble floor on the feet

Top Mt Eden, Sierra Leone

Let's have a game with happy and sad music
When you hear the happy music, play your rhythm sticks
Or clap, just as you did before
Like this
What would you do if I held your hand and laid you down?
Would you find me overly familiar towards you?
I'd like to hold you sometime
Let's have a game with happy and sad music
When you hear the happy music, play your rhythm sticks
Or clap, just as you did before
Like this
What would you do if I held your hand and laid you down?
Would you find me overly familiar towards you?

Top Frank Ocean, Sierra Leone

(I was spendin' too much time alExplainone)
Spendin' too much time alone...
(And I just ran outta Trojans)
Horses gallop to her throne
(We were behaving like teenagers)
We're behaving like teenagers
(Makin' less than minimum wage)
Still inside our parents' homes
(No I don't live in Denver)
No I don't live in Denver
(I grew up in Sierra Leone)
And her pink skies will keep me warm
Sierra Leone
Sierra Leone
Tid bits of intuition that I be gettin' abandon admission (Sierra Leone)
Abandon mission, you must be kiddin', this shit feelin' different
Shit feelin' too good to me
Glistening, shimmerin' underneath the sunlight, the sunlight (Sierra Leone)
And a new day will bring about the dawn
And a new day will bring another cryin' babe into the world (girl now)
Our daughter's reachin' for the nipple cause it's time for her to eat
Tonight I'll lay her in the cradle if it's time for go to sleep
I sing a Lennon lullaby, she can have a pretty dream
Baby girl if you knew what I know, knew what I know
Na, na na, na na, na...
