The head of Community Relations Department RHQ- South Inspector Francess Blake encouraged the CKC pupils to be violent-free and focus on their education and not allow politicians to mislead them.
“Remember you’re the future leaders of Sierra Leone who are going to take up the mantle of leadership in various works of life in our beloved country and attaining the height of leadership starts today. so I encourage you all to continue brooding your book for successful results” she said.
The head of Sexual Assault Syndicate (SAS) FSU, Bo East Division, lectured on sexual offences that pupils normally commit, such as Sexual penetration of a child, meeting a child for a sexual purpose, sexual touching, and many others.
