The social media is seething with rumours that the Maada Bio SLPP Government has brought mercenaries from Burkina Faso to help it fight, if the forthcoming elections flare into a massive chaos as feared, if President Bio rigs the elections.
Already, there are plans by some Sierra Leoneans to stage a sit-home protest on June 12 and then a demonstration on June 13, to protest against the failure of the Elections Commission of Sierra Leone ( ECSL) to publish aggregated data of voters by polling stations and to change the substandard voter ID cards.
The Government is clarifying , however, that there are no Burkinabe mercenaries in Sierra Leone.
