Full transcript of Loulou's story Comment |
|||
| I was in Freetown, everything
was fine when the war was going on, we’d
turn on the radio and hear that a lot of people, the rebels attacked some
place in the south or the north or the east and they killed some amount
of people and a lot have been displaced and stuff like that. And we were
like, okay, we’ve heard it, and maybe you’d be waiting for somebody
to pick you up to go to the movies. Actually, at that time, I was younger,
but sometimes when I sit down and think about those moments, I was like,
we were not actually taking the whole situation seriously.
Like I just told you, when we just heard it, we’d be discussing, and
we’d say ‘oh, did you hear what they just said, they killed
75 people over there.’ ‘oh, that’s sad, but anyway, let’s
forget about it.’ That was our way. And it came to the point where
God, the Heavenly Father was like oh, now you guys are not serious about
it, you will be tested also, because we were like, ‘oh, they are far
away from us, they are in the south’. There was a time where I heard
they were in Bo on the south and I didn’t know when they would come
down, so I said ‘oh, I am far away from this problem so let me just
forget.’ And that was what we kept on saying and saying and saying until boom, they attacked the capital. |
