Mr. Eldred Collins

Meanwhile, the spokesman of (RUFP) Eldred Collins was forced to address the gathering at the law court after an announcement had already been made by the Chairman of the programme that Chairman Foday Sankoh would address the students.

SEQUEL TO STUDENTS' RIOT..
...
Collins said the protest march was politically motivated and had an ulterior motive.

The march, according to some observers was planned to discredit the RUF and Foday Sankoh but it turned out to be an anti-government demonstration as students were loudly heard insulting authorities for not allowing them to go to school and instead sending their children to expensive private schools with money stolen from the nation's coffers and with bribery money.

...
Mr. Collins went on to say, We are deploying every effort to ensure that peace is achieved without undue delay..

In his welcome address earlier, the Director of CARITAS, Ibrahim Sesay said the campaign marked a milestone in bringing together personalities to give their unflinching support from all locations.

It is a call to action to get children back to their families and regain their childhood, Mr. Sesay emphasised.
