On the 42nd Ordinary Meeting of the Committee of Chiefs of Defence Staff of ECOWAS member states two of the issues discussed was about the fragile Sierra Leone situation. The adoption of an ECOWAS Support Mission in Sierra Leone and the development of the ECOWAS logistics depot in Lungi updated.

The presence of the Army bosses was for two main issues. As already stated, they considered and adopted the plan for the ECOWA5 security Support Mission in Sierra Leone and also updated on the activation of the ECOWAS Standby Force to combat Terrorism among other pressing security issues in the sub-region. The Development of the ECOWAS logistics depot in Lungi and the rotation of staff officers of the ECOWAS Peace Support Operations Division and the ECOWAS Standby Forces discussed and endorsed.

The long awaited ECOMOG arrival will materialised soon. Sources say the first batch will land in Freetown in the middle of September and the full force expected to arrive at the end of September. The good news from Nigeria filtered through to Sierra Leone as social media was awash with the facts and pictures of the Chiefs of Staff meeting making the suffering electorates even more hopeful than at last Electoral Justice shall happen in Sierra Leone. The Bio slaves are however in despair because they expect ECOWAS to encourage electoral thievery.

But with the United Nations Security Council very keen on restoring constitutional rule in Sierra Leone, it was no surprise that ECOWAS and the African Union are determined to implement the instructions from the Security Council. The doubting Sidis, the doubting Minkailus, the doubting Chericocos and their blind Vuvuzelas in the media should hang their tiny heads in shame for supporting the illegal President Maada Bio to prolong his stay in power.

From Abuja to Sierra Leone, it is now clear that ECOWAS has re-ignited the flame of Electoral Justice making it alive and kicking. ECOWAS Chiefs of Defence Staff meeting reportedly ended successfully as ECOMOG peacekeepers are in readiness mid-September and hopefully by the next month ending, the complete troops will land. Reports say Maada Bio is shuttling pariah states like Burkina Faso, Niger and Mali for military assistance without the approval of ECOWAS countries because of the ousting of democratic governments in the three suspended nations.

The ECOMOG depot in Lungi will host the full ECOMOG troops in September. The ECOMOG depot in Lungi near the international airport in Freetown where the necessary logistics would be stationed and where the 5000  strong ECOMOG peacekeepers will assemble. Reports say, other ECOWAS Support Missions will be in Freetown and other bases namely Kerry Town in the western area. Sierra Leoneans are patiently waiting for ECOMOG arrival to see Electoral Justice achieved, propelled firmly by the APC leader Dr Samura Kamara.

ECOMOG Reconnaissance team comprising army personnel have been sent ahead in Sierra Leone months ago. So, technically, ECOMOG soldiers have been in Sierra Leone in Lungi to be precise since last year. Their base in Lungi close to the Lungi International Airport has been active for many months. People still remember the US Air Force One jumbo jet that landed at Lungi Airport some months ago. They are called reconnaissance team sent covertly for feasibility studies and to study the terrain around the city and the country.

The suffering electorates in Sierra Leone should be rest assured that democracy will be restored soon in the country. Already the global partners have put together 2.5 billion United States dollars for ECOMOG expenditure. This month, the people of Sierra Leone should expect major development. Already, the contributions of soldiers from ECOWAS member states have progressed according to schedule and sources say it is almost complete in readiness for full deployment. Good riddance to Electoral Justice.
