Newsday

Available for over a year

President Ernest Bai Koroma of Sierra Leone is due to leave office in February 2018 at the end of his current term. But there are calls for the president to extend his mandate. His supporters say the Ebola outbreak has occupied two years of his job. So who's campaigning for an extended term? The Âé¶¹Éç's Umaru Fofana put that question to the government's spokesman, Alpha Kanu.
