Sierra Leone: Voters' views

Sierra Leoneans go to the polls on Saturday, 11 August.

It will be the country's second poll since the end of the decade-long civil war in 2002, and the first without international supervision.

We asked four registered voters for their views on the polls. Click on the links below to read their opinions.

Ernest Gborie Unemployed graduate, 21 Bo, southern Sierra Leone 'All I ask for is jobs, especially for us youth' Odette Johnson Secretary, 26 Freetown, capital 'These politicians have sugar-coated mouths'

Bernard Sisay Marketing director, 39 Freetown, capital 'I want a president with big ideas and big dreams' Joseph Johnbull Pastor, 29 Kenema, eastern Sierra Leone 'It is difficult to tell who is going to win, because of deception'
