‼️The unique royal disposition of the Sesay dynasty.

By: Ibrahim Jallloh - (Jalllomy)✍️

Death swopped in the royal dynasty of the Sesay ruling clan and brought to an abrupt end the rule and reign of the late PC and Hon. Member of Parliament the late Hon. Kandeh Wusu Sesay.

It was dramatic, shocking and gripped his family members, friends and subjects in utter disbelief and awe.

The late Paramount Chief has been sick but on intermittent bases for a while until lately when he was flown to India on account of our collapsed medical regime in Sierra Leone.

The late Paramount Chief was a combination of a cluster of things that typified or characterized the good life, the cheerfulness of humanity and the humourous nature of man mostly lacking in traditional African leaders. He was down to earth, unassuming, over consultative, compassionate, philanthropic, and a master of the art of lowliness and humility.

Not suprisinly, he inherited these traits and identity symbols from his late father, PC Kandeh Wusu Sesay 1. His father was peaceful and harmless to an unpardonable fault. He suffered series of persecution from the late dictator Thaimu Bangura who very deliberately and intentionally unleashed the first circle of genocide in Sanda in the early 80s.

The greatest strength of the Sesay dynasty is the strength and courage to embrace, empathize, engage, and forgive. They sometimes see themselves as subjects rather than masters when in power.

We will surely miss the late Paramount chief. Nature does not provide vacuum but I see on surfacing here.

May his Soul rest in peace and may have the wisdom to find a suitable and soothing replacement.

Senegal, first African team to beat England, but not first to score three goals

By: Alusine Rehme Wilson Claim: Soccer World HQ, in a Facebook post , claimed that Senegal is the first African team to beat England and the first to score three goals against them. Verdict: Partly True! Senegal is the first African team to beat England, but not the first to score three goals against them. Full Text The England senior men’s national football team, nicknamed the “Three Lions,” played their first match against Scotland in 1872. That match ended goalless but marked the beginning of an intense soccer rivalry between both nations, dubbed the “Auld Enemy.” Since 1872-2025, the England national team has achieved its 1000-game milestone in November 2019 when they played Montenegro at the Wembley Stadium.
