Kono Rehabilitation Centre Discharges Former Victims of Drug and Substance Abuse.

KONO DISTRICT, SIERRA LEONE – On Friday, 5th June 2026, the Kono Rehabilitation Centre successfully discharged a group of former victims of drug and substance abuse during a well-attended ceremony held at the 9 Battalion Simbakoro Barracks in Kono District.

The ceremony marked an important milestone in the government's efforts to combat drug abuse and support the recovery and reintegration of affected youths into society.

Speaking at the event, stakeholders commended the progress made by the rehabilitated beneficiaries and encouraged them to remain focused, responsible, and committed to building productive lives. The programme also highlighted the importance of community support, family involvement, and continuous mentorship in helping recovering individuals successfully reintegrate into society.

The discharge ceremony serves as a symbol of hope and transformation, demonstrating that recovery is possible when individuals receive the necessary care, guidance, and opportunities.

The Central Youths Organization (CYO) welcomed the initiative and reaffirmed its commitment to supporting awareness campaigns, youth empowerment programmes, and community efforts aimed at creating a drug-free Kono District.

Big move on the horizon for Sierra Leonean football 🇸🇱🔥
Sierra Leone’s rising talent Kumba Brima could be heading toward one of the biggest clubs in women’s football after reportedly completing an internship with Paris Saint-Germain Féminine in December 2025.
According to Fella Sport Management and Global Soccer Management SL, the decision to keep trials and internships private is intentional — helping players stay focused and protected from unnecessary pressure during important stages of their development.
Before the PSG opportunity, Kumba Brima had already gained valuable exposure with AIK Fotboll Damer and Stade de Reims Féminines, before later joining Riga FC Women in Latvia.
If this move becomes official, it would represent another huge milestone for women’s football in Sierra Leone and serve as a powerful inspiration to young female footballers across Africa. 🇸🇱⚽🔥

YOUTHS ARE THE VOICE OF PEACE!

As young people, we have the power to build our communities and inspire positive change. Violence can never create the future we dream of, but peace, unity, and understanding will always move us forward.

Today, I encourage every youth to stay focused, respect one another, avoid violence, and become ambassadors of peace in our communities. Let us use our energy for development, leadership, education, and helping others grow.

A peaceful youth is a powerful youth. Together, we can make Kono District stronger and better for everyone.

✊ Peace • Unity • Progress
