By: Benedict AbuBakarr Conteh  Sierra Leone has faced significant challenges concerning the treatment of opposition members by security forces, leading to instances where individuals sought asylum abroad. These events highlight ongoing concerns about human rights and the protection of political freedoms in the country. In July 2020, a fierce protest erupted in Makeni, primarily driven by public discontent over moving a standby generator meant to serve the people in the event of power outage from the national electricity grid.
