On Tuesday, October 13, 2026, a low-magnitude earthquake originating in the Atlantic Ocean suddenly shook the Youyi Building, and panic-stricken workers and visitors ran down the stairs to escape to safety outside. (Photo: Dilapidated Youyi Building).

Luckily, the tremor that shook the Youyi Building within a few seconds did not cause serious problems. But the panic was enough to frighten workers and visitors who had gathered in the car park and on the streets to discuss what had just happened.

Social media was awash with videos and pictures of the badly maintained Youyi Building being evacuated after the low-magnitude earthquake had struck the building, which triggered the convulsion, mild movements within the earth’s crust or little volcanic action.

Thankfully, no one was hurt. The Youyi Building earthquake ended suddenly and quickly, as it had started. But latest information reaching the Organiser newspaper the useless SLPP/Paopa regime is thinking about appealing for global grants to check the suitability of the building.

What a daft idea being thought about by the bankrupt, failed and cocaine regime of Maada Bio. Such an odd, opportunistic, selfish, exploitative policy will not hold water. The SLPP regime should wake up from deep sleep and face reality. No foreign money is coming. After all, the Youyi Building has not been maintained for ages.

The low-magnitude earthquake on Monday, October 13, has been confirmed by the United States Geological Survey USGS. Most importantly, the US Geological Survey made it clear that the earthquake that hit the Atlantic Ocean was low-magnitude.

Reports say that the low-magnitude earthquake that affected the Youyi Ministerial Building in Freetown even affected faraway Panama. Because the earthquake experience at the Youyi Building is frightening, it does mean that the bankrupt Bio regime should capitalise on it to make money.

Watching the video showing scared workers at the Youyi Building rushing out of the edifice is a reminder of the danger that earthquakes pose, whether low or high. Yet, selfish governance rather than total care for the people has always been the case under the failed Bio administration and the Ernest Koroma era.

International opportunism by Bio’s corrupt bunch is not strange. During the COVID-19 outbreak, the evil Bio administrators took full advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic to go cap in hand to beg for global financial assistance. Frankly, there was no real COVID in Sierra Leone. (Photo: Sordid Youyi Building).
