Aspiring Broadcaster Dorcas Annie commences her stirring academia-modeling blend

By:
The journey of aspiring female broadcaster Dorcas Annie Koroma at the University of Makeni (UniMak) in the Mass Communications Department is an inspirational blend of academia and modeling. Known as "Queen D", Koroma has impressed her colleagues with her seamless combination of academic and modeling pursuits. She attributes her success to her commitment and dedication to both fields. Koroma's accomplishments in modeling have been noteworthy. In 2013, she won the Miss Murray Town contest, marking the beginning of her rise to prominence. She later achieved even greater success by winning the Miss Africa title in 2015 and, more recently, the Miss Makeni Model Union crown. Despite her achievements in the modeling world, Koroma remains focused on her academic journey. In a Tuesday evening interview with AWE-Media.SL, after her tour to the Fatima and Yoni campuses of UniMak, she revealed her “vision is to become one of Sierra Leone's finest female broadcasters upon graduating next year,” reiterating her determination to break stereotypes in the modeling industry is evident in her latest decision to compete for the 2024 Miss UniMak crown. In line with her aspiration, Koroma and her team are already visiting campuses in Makeni to gather support and share her vision of transforming the perception of modeling as a career only for dropouts. With her influential presence and future as a broadcaster, she aims to redefine the academic-modeling blend. While her dedication and commitment to both fields have propelled her to success, and she aims to make a significant impact in the modeling industry while pursuing her career as a broadcaster, she has called for more support from her colleagues and the public to join her embark on an inspiring journey that combines her academic pursuits with her modeling aspirations.

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, ...

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 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.
