Appreciating Oyedpo for his kind gesture, President Koroma recounts the loss the nation suffered while the mudslide occurred on Monday. He narrated that a particular church was observing vigil when the unprecedented tragedy occurred, and consequently claimed hundreds of lives. He also bemoaned the story of six innocent children who went studying in the home of one of their brightest colleagues and the young man who was due to get married today, saying that they all had their plans for the next day but were swept away from their sleep onto untimely deaths.
If you will recall, the same nation suffered a great loses during the Ebola epidemic which spread greatly across the West African coast. Even though faced with another challenging situation, almost like that of the Ebola outbreak, President Koroma still was optimistic, expressing the hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
