I think you should have said “most people” or “many people are living poorly,” rather than “the people.” That distinction matters.
I live in the States, travel often, and return to Sierra Leone regularly. From my experience, Sierra Leone itself is not poor, it is underdeveloped in infrastructure and economic opportunity. Those are not the same thing.
Like the USA, Europe, and many other places, Sierra Leone has both wealth and poverty. There are affluent communities, middle-class families, struggling families, and everything in between. If you only experience one side, you don't get the full picture.
I grew up in Sierra Leone and have spent the last 12 years living in the United States, I've traveled to other countries, I've experienced life on both sides. I've seen people in Sierra Leone who, in terms of homes, land, businesses, family support, and overall quality of life, live better than some people overseas.
We should absolutely talk about our country's challenges, but let's also paint a complete picture of Sierra Leone, its beauty, resources, wealth, opportunities, culture, and potential. The next generation should see a country they can help build, invest in, and be proud of; not simply a place they need to run away from. 🇸🇱
Just my opinion, based on my own experiences and facts. Keep going bro. Great contents you've been dropping ✊🏾🙌🏾
