He is in the habit of saying things he knows not about.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">It is no surprise at all that the Idiot was the first to enjoy the pleasure of Presidency in the Association of Idiot.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">Don\u2019t be dismayed also that the Idiot has complained President Koroma to the AOI, but is yet to hear from them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">His complaint has to do with the unending hike of prices of basic commodities in the markets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">To the Idiot, things are hard for him and his family. Even when he knocks doors of the haves for help, nobody takes him sorry.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">All they say is, \u201cso Idiots also feel the hardship?\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">But what about the number of support groups already formed. Why are politicians spending hundreds of millions on them yet could not fend for the poor and needy?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">It is no secret anymore that rice is sold at Le 160,000 per bag and cooking ingredients at very expensive prices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">How do they expect people to survive the day? Please give an answer to Mr. Idiot\u2019s question.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">Some call me stupid Idiot, some retched Idiot and some useless Idiot, fine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">For it sounds odd that those who claim to be wise have failed to provide rice for Mr. Idiot and colleague at a cost recovery basis to enable them live a better life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">OK, the Idiot has been told that the Minister of Presidential Affairs has recently imported 2000 tons of rice from Guinea. He said the rice was received from the Guinea government on loan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">But according investigation, it has been revealed that the President of Guinea told his people that the rice he gave to Sierra Leone was just a kind gesture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">Who exactly is fooling who &#8211; Guinea or Sierra Leone? Time will tell.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">No matter their condemnations, the Idiot, on number of times, has received accolades for checkmating and exposing conducts of failed politicians.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\"><a class=\"highslide\" onclick=\"return vz.expand(this)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sierraexpressmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/President-Koroma-praise.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-30172\" title=\"President Koroma praise\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sierraexpressmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/President-Koroma-praise.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"472\" height=\"344\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">For your information rather, the Association of Idiots is said to have summoned \u2018Di Pa\u2019 to a meeting so that he can explain about the hardship in the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">Would it surprise all that Praise Singers spends all of their time at State House almost every other day?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">It is but a shock to the Idiot that the office of the President is becoming money depot for praise singers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">So, is it true that President Koroma is indeed world\u2019s highest spending President?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">No, the Idiot will virtually not subscribe to that at all.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">For sure, people have been accusing President Koroma of over spending, but the Idiot is yet to prove that anyway.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">Just last month, the Idiot was at State House where he held a meeting with his informants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">During the meeting, he allowed access to official information concerning the state of affairs of the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">The Idiot was quick to reach at a report submitted by persons tasked to investigate the Kono shooting.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">Reading through the report, he was quick to pick it up that the No.2 is deeply involved.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">Less the Idiot forgets, he was told that \u2018Yelibas\u2019 food finders have been crying of hardship secretly, but at public forums will cheer up President Koroma.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">And were also not newspapers reporting that President Koroma and President Obama held close door meeting in New York.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">How about the outcome?<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><strong><em>Stay with Sierra Express Media, for your trusted place in news!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has reached the Idiot that people who praise sing President Koroma are themselves hungry people.\u00a0 (Photo: Ibrahim Samura, Editor) Remember though that \u2018hardship\u2019 codified [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":75801,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[671,1],"tags":[8672],"class_list":["post-30147","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-uncategorized","tag-mr-idiot"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30147","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=30147"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30147\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/75801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=30147"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=30147"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=30147"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
