He accused him of failing Sierra Leone’s youth, particularly in addressing the rising issue of drug addiction. “The Minister has never engaged young people on this critical issue,” Jobo alleged.

Jobo further alleged that Bangura disrupted a Barber shop project he was constructing near a car wash, which was intended to create employment the youths. He claimed the Minister destroyed the shop, slapped him in public, and even pointed a gun at him during the altercation.

Highlighting his dissatisfaction, Jobo stated: “We respect President Bio, but some of his appointees are sabotaging his government through their words and actions.” He warned that if Bangura visits Moyamba Junction, the reaction from the youth might be very bitter for Minister Bangura.

In addition, Jobo accused the Minister of misusing donor funds meant for youth development. He alleged that Bangura has diverted UNDP vehicles for personal use and relocated a fish pond project intended for young people to his private residence.

Jobo urged President Bio to remove Bangura in the next cabinet reshuffle, stating that the Minister’s actions undermine the administration’s credibility and the trust of young people.
