Officers from the Operational Support Division (OSD) of the Sierra Leone Police have reportedly fired teargas at Mohamed Omodu “Jagaban” K**ara and his supporters during a gathering in Wellington on Sunday, January 11, 2025. According to reports, Jagaban and his supporters had assembled at the former NATCO Factory at the Wellington Industrial Estate for a charity ceremony linked to his transport business. The event was part of activities marking the unveiling of the facility as the Jagaban bus depot, ahead of the arrival of his bus fleet from China.
Eyewitnesses said police officers arrived at the venue on Sunday morning and disrupted the ceremony, leading to a confrontation that culminated in the use of teargas. The incident reportedly caused panic among attendees and forced the gathering to disperse.
