Female Folk Singer Fantacee Wiz, goes bald in solidarity with LAJ

By: Alusine Rehme Wilson 


Sierra Leonean female folk singer, activist, poet and performer Fantacee Wiz has shaved off her 15 years old dredged in solidarity with his fellow musician Alhaji Lamrama Jalloh alias LAJ who is standing trials on four count Charges.

Fantacee’s decision to go bald headed follows public outcry over the forcefully barbing of LAJ by officers of the Sierra Leone Police attached at the Benghazi detention center in Freetown which many entertainers and others including Fantacee Wiz believed was a gross violation of the famous male Rapper’s right by the police while in their custody.

Prior to the cutting off of her 15 years old and 5fts plus long dredged, the rising female multifaceted performer and actor posted photographs of herself and LAJ with some emotional message on her official Facebook handle saying: “it is our suffering that brings us together. It is not love. Love does not obey the mind, and turns to hate when forced. The bond that binds is is beyond choice. We are kinsmen in what we share.

“In pain, which each of us must suffer alone, in hunger, in poverty, in hope, we know we are kinsmen. We know it, because we have had to learn it.

“We know that there is no help for us from one another, that no hand will save us if we do not reach out our hand. And the hand that reach out is empty, and mine is. You have nothing, you possess nothing. You are free. All you have is what you are, and what you give.

“The heart cannot see but weighs more than a scale . This hurts like being punch in the stomach of being being caught off guard. Love & Light, her post further reads.

Since shaving off her hair, Fantacee has been widely commended by her colleague entertainers, activists and other members of public including LXG while some of her colleagues musicians including Moriss, Natasha Swadu Beckly, Solomon Kass Marrah of LXG have also shaved off their hairs in solidarity with LAJ who made his first appearance at court No. 1 at Pademba last Monday on the following four count charges: of robbery with violence contrary to Section 21(b) and 23 (1b) of the Larceny Act of 1916 and assault occasioning actual bodily harm contrary to Section 47 of the Offences Against the Persons Act.

Sierra Leone, Two other Nations disqualified from AFCON 2024 U17 Qualifiers

By: Abdulrahman Barrie The U17 football teams from Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Guinea Bissau have been disqualified from the 2024 U17 African Cup of Nations competition in Senegal after failing the mandatory MRI test scans. These scans, which determine the age of the players, revealed discrepancies that led to their removal from the tournament. The disqualification follows changes to Article 27.4 of the U17 Africa Cup of Nations regulations, which have tightened the criteria and enforcement of age verification measures. The updated rules stipulate that if a team has more than four players deemed ineligible after the MRI eligibility test, the entire team will be disqualified. The MRI tests, used to enforce age restrictions in youth competitions, are crucial for ensuring fairness. Unfortunately, the teams from these three nations did not meet the age criteria, resulting in their disqualification. This decision has come as a significant disappointment for the young players and their fans, w...

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. England's all-time head-to-head record shows that they’ve played a whopping 1072 matches against 100 countries, won 615 games, drew 255, and lost 200. Senegal, on the other hand, is one of Africa’s most famous football nations, nicknamed the “Lions of Teranga.” In 2002, ...

Disturbing snail space Civil works in the Makeni Central Lorry park

By: Ibrahim Jalloh - (Jallomy) The Makeni City Council (MCC) ordered commercial vehicles and business entities to leave the park area for the purpose of upgrading the park. Two weeks were given as the duration of the work. Regrettably, a week plus few days have elapsed with no significant work done. Drivers and business people in the park are completely frustrated and their livelihoods threatened.  Few years ago, drivers and traders were asked out of the park for similar reason but after two weeks they were asked to return to the park with no work done. This was disrespectful and insulting.  We urge MCC to double their efforts as the affected persons are running out of patience.
