Take Note

In the heart of Sierra Leone, a paradox unfolds. To a global fanfare,we were crowned the happiest in Africa. The world saw our rhythm,our smiles lighting up the screen. But behind the dance,a silence hangs, too heavy to bear. For Mariama,a bright-eyed student from Bo, the dance is a distraction. Years have passed since she reached the WASSCE level, yet her name never appeared on the list. Her eyes,once shining, now speak of a dream deferred. Her hope of becoming a nurse remains shelved, while her peers chase choreography and fleeting fame. Her parents dance too, not from joy,but from helplessness. They cannot afford the PRIVATE WASSCEC fees. The government’s promise of"free quality education" has become an empty slogan. Instead of negotiating to ease the burden, the price was raised,turning hope into heartbreak. This is the alarm: Thousands of pupils have been dropped from the WASSCE path. Teachers,the pillars of the system, are stripped from the payroll. The Union does not cry for these abandoned souls,but for subsidies. And the ones left behind? They dance. They dance through disappointment. They dance through disenfranchisement. They dance through a system that celebrates joy while ignoring justice. We see the smiles, but not the sorrow. We hear the rhythm,but not the reason. We observe the celebration,but not the crushing of opportunity. So Sierra Leone dances.Not because all is well,but because it is the only way their voices can be heard. In a country rich in spirit but poor in policy, the dance is not just a performance; it is a plea,a protest, a prayer. It is the only mirror that does not lie. Thank you, TikTok, for the title. But our happiness cannot be measured in viral dances alone. It is found in dignity,not distraction; in education,not evasion. It thrives in the fairness of opportunity, and in the courage to confront uncomfortable truths. Thank you, TikTok, for the crown. But our joy is not a performance. True happiness is built on dignity and education, on opportunity and justice. It requires the courage to face hard truths, not just the rhythm to dance around them. Thank you, TikTok, for the spotlight. But you see only the dance,not its depth. Our happiness is not a trend; its roots are dignity,its branches are education. It grows in the soil of equal opportunity, and it requires the harsh sunlight of truth to survive.
