The Sierra Leone diaspora is mobilising... that's the feeling i have anyway. SL4U are one of those groups who through the medium of radio are making an impact. Last night they held a PR event in their studio which brought together other members of the diaspora, marketing people and some peeps from the TV. These events all in their own little way gets the meesage across that Sierra Leone (and Sierra Leoneans) is ready for business.
I met one of our footballers who is plying his trade in the UK and we were having a discussion about players who are elligible to play for Sierra Leone. I had always thought that these players had not been approached by SLFA and whilst this is sometimes the case... he made it clear to me that also in some cases the parents don't want these players to go back and play for a country like Sierra Leone. I hadn't thought of that.
