Ernest Bai Koroma: Former president of Sierra Leone travels to Nigeria for health care

Sierra Leone’s ex-president is going to Nigeria for medical care even though he is supposed to go on trial for his alleged involvement in a coup attempt last year.

The High Court allowed Ernest Bai Koroma to leave for up to three months on Wednesday.

Many people think that an agreement has been made for him to leave the country.

His trial for betraying his country is supposed to start in March.

“Mr Bai Koroma was the leader of Sierra Leone for 11 years until 2018. Then Julius Maada Bio became the new President. ”

A plane from Nigeria with the ex-president on board was spotted leaving Freetown International Airport on Friday afternoon.

This is happening while people are guessing that Ecowas has made an agreement with Sierra Leone’s government to let the 70-year-old move to another place to reduce tension after the trouble in November.
