To assume that opposition parties could not win elections in Africa is a total myth. People of Sierra Leone in their recent elections have a case to prove opposition parties can defeat a sitting government.

| It sometimes has to get worse before it gets better. I thibnk the Sierra Leoneans know what is at stake and would not like to go back to the carnage of the civil war. |

Good news, that change is possible peacefully and through the ballot box.
Worth mentioning is that Kabbah is out, the presidential election is between the vice president and the opposition.(as in Nigeria)
CNN´s “Inside Africa” has it that there are plans to start processing diamonds at home and export only finished products.
