His Excellency President Julius Maada Bio Will Make Agriculture His Second-Term Flagship Programme

By Charles Champion Conteh -Stratigic Communications unit, MIC
After an outstanding performance in the Education flagship program during his first five years in office, President Julius Maada Bio has pronounced Agriculture as his next flagship program after he wins the June 24 elections and becomes President for another five years. Before winning the 2018 presidential election, President bio made his commitment to human capital development which has to do with Education, Health and Agriculture, as a sector that fully deserves attention if Sierra Leone is to develop. After winning the election, few months later, he successfully introduced the Free quality education as his main flagship program and allocated 22% of the national budget, the highest ever in the history of Sierra Leone and in the West African Region. Over the past five years of his first term, Sierra Leone has been recognized for her outstanding performance in the sector, which has also made his administration worthy of emulation by great leaders all around the world. President Bio also noted then that without a healthy mind and body, education is useless and thus his commitment to Human Capital Development has also seen him increasing budgetary allocation to the health sector from the 6% budget allocation inherited in 2018, to 11.6%.. This has seen immense progress in the sector over the past 5 years. Over and beyond these, the President has now assured Sierra Leoneans that if given a contract renewal and re-elected, he will make agriculture not just sexy and attractive but also his main project, which will ultimately set Sierra Leone on the path to achieving food sustainability and certainly improve the livelihood of Citizens across the board.

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.
