Over the weekend, social media erupted with a video featuring Amira Kargbo, in which she made serious allegations against Dr. Denis Sandy, the former Minister of Lands, Housing, and Country Planning in Sierra Leone. In the video, Amira claimed that Dr. Sandy and his family had threatened her, her mother, and her sister. The alleged threats reportedly stem from a recording that Amira’s sister made, which allegedly captured Dr. Sandy attempting to coerce her into a sexual relationship.
The allegations have sparked concern across the country, raising questions about abuse of power and sexual misconduct involving a public figure. Amira Kargbo’s accusations suggest that Dr. Sandy may have used his position of influence to engage in inappropriate behavior, which, if true, would constitute a serious breach of trust.
In response, grassroots members of the Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP) have called on Dr. Sandy to address the allegations head-on. They stress that silence could be interpreted as an admission of guilt and urge the former minister to cooperate with any investigation that might follow. The allegations against Dr. Sandy also include threats of harm toward Amira and her family, compounding the gravity of the situation.
While Dr. Sandy has been recognized for his public service, the community is calling for transparency and justice. A full investigation into the claims is being demanded to uncover the truth and ensure accountability, whether that involves clearing Dr. Sandy’s name or holding him responsible for any misconduct.
Amira Kargbo’s courage in bringing these allegations to light is being acknowledged, with many advocating for her protection and a thorough, unbiased inquiry into her claims. As this case unfolds, the public will be closely watching to see how Dr. Sandy responds and how the legal process addresses these serious accusations
