Ministries of tourism and land clears ‘congestion’ in Aberdeen


We normally take a relaxing drink on Friday after work at this beach bar, but all 15 bars on the 3 mile beach has been cleared in the last two days. The beach is now more lonely and less safe.

We have more sympathy for pavement shops opposite our hospital in Aberdeen built, by entrepreneurs trying to make a living. Shopkeepers (who helped us with learning Krio) have nowhere to go but the roadside. Dave runs out between surgeries and gives a hand moving the shoemaker’s kiosk to a side street.
