The Sierra Leone Police have called Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma, the former president of Sierra Leone, to help with the ongoing investigations into the failed coup attempt that took place on November 26, 2023. At around 11:00 AM today, the summons was issued, which is a noteworthy development in the context of the attempted overthrow.
Dr. Koroma has been summoned by the police in Sierra Leone to report to the Criminal Investigations Department headquarters in Freetown within the next twenty-four hours. This action implies a strong desire to find out how much the former president knew or was involved in the botched attempt. The November 26th coup attempt rattled Sierra Leone’s political establishment and put the country on edge.
Since the government has not disclosed any particular information concerning the failed coup, popular curiosity and conjecture have grown. The choice to question a former head of state highlights how serious the issue is and raises concerns about possible links between the failed coup and aspects of the political scene.
Because of Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma’s cooperation with the police investigation, important details about the coup plot will probably come to light, possibly leading to more arrests or discoveries. Both the domestic and international communities are closely following the events as Sierra Leone struggles to recover from a coup attempt that put its democratic institutions to the test.
