Behind the Scenes with Lans Omar - May 25, 2024.
Hello everyone!
From Winnipeg, Canada, respect to all my fam, fans, and friends!
The weekend vibes are here: Emotional funeral for Mama Phebian Fudia Paul in Winnipeg, SALNAM’s Senior’s Day Lunch happening today (May 25, 2024), President Bio threatens Sierra Leoneans: “If You Bring a Bullet, You Will Meet a Bullet”, electricity in Sierra Leone in the question of the day, plus lots more. You're about to read another neck-breaking edition of “Behind the Scenes". This column is the radical thoughts of one guy called Lans Omar aka the “Golden Child” - born and raised in Freetown, Sierra Leone.
Let's do this: Emotional funeral for Mama Phebian Fudia Paul in Winnipeg, Canada, on Friday, May 17, 2024. Family members and the Sierra Leonean community and friends paid their last respects to the late Mama Paul. The interment took place at 917 Archibald Street at 12:00 PM after the viewing of the body at 680 Archibald Street, Winnipeg, Canada. A celebration of her life was held at 2:00 PM at The Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, at 930 Pandora Ave West, Winnipeg, Canada, where Elder Roberta Berkers delivered a touching message about the gracious life that Mama Paul lived on earth.
Mama Phebian Fudia Paul passed away at the Riverview Health Centre, Winnipeg, Canada, on May 5, 2024. She is survived by her children in Canada - Rosaline Decker, Katherine Nasralla, Martin Paul, Beatrice Paul, and Theresa Dauda, as well as numerous relatives at home and abroad. Rest in peace Mama Paul!
Switching gears: The Sierra Leone Nationals Association of Manitoba (SALNAM) is treating the seniors in the community with a special Senior’s Day Lunch. The lunch is scheduled to take place today, May 25, 2024 at the North Kildonan United Church, 174 Pentland Street, Winnipeg, MB. The luncheon will commence at 4:00 PM till 8:00 PM. The cover charge is free!
Next stop: De Popay too funny, one whole president dae threaten ein yone people dem. During the coronation of paramount chiefs in Bo City last week, President Bio sent threatening message to the people of Sierra Leone, emphasizing that: “If you bring a bullet, you will meet a bullet”. Ridiculously ridiculous! He was trying to say if the people don’t sit back and relax till 2028 for another presidential elections, they will face the bullets. C’mon Mr. President, this is 2024 in the year of our Lord, which president in the whole wide world talks like that? Oona lef me.
Question: Just asking – how de electricity nar Sierra Leone?
Finally: Again, the weekend is here! Going to be a relaxing weekend for me. I have lots of packing to do for shipment to Sierra Leone. I’ll also be chilling at the SALNAM Senior's lunch today.
Fellas, my advice for the weekend – if you plan to have some good time and get a drink, you know the rules, right? If you’re drinking, don’t drive – if you’re driving, don’t drink. Have a great weekend! Lonta.
I'm out of here!
Cheers fellas!
The Golden Child.
