Sierra Leone is observing a period of lockdown to combat the coronavirus. It started from Sunday 5th April and will last until Tuesday April 7.
The people of Sierra Leone are however going to the lockdown under extreme hardsgip. Electricity is on and off and there are long blackouts in the country . Worse still, the water is not running and there is serious water shortage in the capital.
Citizens are complaining bitterly about the squalid conditions under which the lockdown is being held.
We will bring you the views of the public under the articles.
Another problem, according to the complaints on the social media, is that all government workers were paid for March.
SIERRA LEONEANS struggled to get their basic necessities in preparation for the lockdown and in the process social distancing protocols were violated , exposing the throngs of people, especially in the market places, to the very virus for which the lockdown was ordered.

Mad rush in the city ahead of the three days nationwide lockdown
Should we truly believe that there are preventive healthcare measures to curtail the spread of infection of COVID-19 ?
Should we have had a partial lockdown instead of a national lockdown ?
Are we well prepared for this ?
Did the government took into account the state of affairs in the provinces ?
