At the point when Bashiru Gbassay Conteh ran over an opening advert from the Sierra Leone Service of Work in organization with Taju Enrollment Office in November 2021, calling for 200 light-obligation drivers to work in Dubai, he was captivated by the proposition and chose to check it out.
As a jobless youth in Sierra Leone, he considered the opening to be a chance to fulfill his long craving of tying down something important to accommodate himself and his loved ones.
While going after the light-obligation driver's position in Abu Dhabi, Bashiru had such a lot of confidence in the process generally on the grounds that the Service of Work and Government backed retirement for Sierra Leone was involved. He made sure to the NLE 10,000 ($534) mentioned from him as a handling expense. Bashiru did everything that was expected of him, including going through a few meetings and clinical exams.
He additionally paid an extra NLE 700($37) for operations, and NLE 400 ($21) for the kickoff of a record for him, all of which he got no receipt for.
The Takeoff from Sierra Leone to Dubai
Half a month after the application, he was educated that he had passed every one of his meetings and was among the 40 other people who arose fruitful. Hearing this, Bashiru had elevated requirements of how his life was to be changed in Abu Dhabi, and he contemplated how he was to begin sending cash home to his loved ones. Yet, the truth was not far off holding back to wake him from his sleep.
"We were informed we would withdraw Sierra Leone for Dubai in December 2021, yet we won't ever travel. Our monies have not been discounted to date, and to top it all off, Taju Deen Turay is no place to be seen. All we know is that he is presently in Ghana, concealing in the wake of gathering our millions," Bashiru told The News media.
Bashiru was not by any means the only one caught in Taju's deceitful web. 50 other Sierra Leoneans were misled as well. Some of them put away and spent more cash than he.
Tommy Koroma, another casualty, paid a sum of NLE 11,000 ($588) for the program; NLE 5,000 ($267) starting responsibility expenses, and NLE 7,000 ($374) for visa charges. At the point when Tommy was guaranteed that he would land the position and was educated he would travel Dubai in the principal seven day stretch of December 2021, he left his past work in November, mentioned his result, and utilized all the cash to pay the NLE 11,000 ($588) million Taju Deen Turay had requested.
"Presently, check my ongoing life out. I'm jobless, and I have a family I can't accommodate. I didn't travel, and I lack my cash back. These are a portion of the reasons youngsters go distraught these days. the public authority of Sierra Leone needs to help us," Tommy said.

All endeavors by Bashiru, Tommy and the 50 others to get their monies have demonstrated pointless. Since the Sierra Leone Service of Work and Government managed retirement was in organization with Taju Enlistment Organization, the young have been visiting the Priest of Work, Alpha Osman Timbo, for nearly 12 months, requesting a discount of their monies.

They said the Clergyman even moved some of them to another enrollment organization to make sure they could travel, however they were at this point to see any indication of readiness.
The frantic youth coordinated a serene dissent against the Sierra Leone Service of Work and Government backed retirement to request their cash.
The Clergyman was facilitated along with Bashiru Conteh on one of Sierra Leone's public television programs, AYV Wake up Salone, in August 2022. The Clergyman on the program made sense of that when he assumed control over the service in 2018, there was a restriction on abroad traveler enlistment in Sierra Leone. Because of the great youth joblessness rate in the country, he said he considered it fit to advocate for the lifting of the boycott. The boycott was in the end lifted by the public authority of Sierra Leone in 2018.

"I did all of this with emotional speed. That was on the grounds that the young people were frantic for occupations," the Priest said.
