GANGSTERISM IN SIERRA LEONE

Young people in Sierra Leone put to practice the western world gang leaders attitudes. Today young people form groups like Grave yard diggers, Friends of the dead, Klick, Crips, Members of Blood, Deathrow, Terror Squard etc which sometimes let people not to sleep. The five stars of these cultic groups are sometimes hard to identify and meet with. We have held several workshops with these young people and we have many challenges to address. The young people have no respect fo the Police and therefore who can stand on their way. They kill themselves during several activities and sometimes waste innocent lives during initiations. One of the way forward to stem this is to get street kids off the city and give them life skills.
Why are you silent to be part of our campaign? You can help us to reintegrate these young people to become active and responsible citizens. Unemployment is another concern which sometimes let young people to violence. In Sierra Leone our attitudes towards law offenders push them more into violence because when the society neglect them they go out to find their livings through many means. Contact us on anti2003_violencesl@yahoo.com.
