At 12 Mr. Bah, now 27, was forced into the Sierra Leone army as one of

devastated the region in the 1990s. Before he was 20 Mr. Bah organized
the Awareness Movement of Sierra Leone, edited The Point newspaper and
was sent into exile in Guinea-Conakry where he became a political
prisoner.

Chernoh Alpha Bah now leads the Africanist Movement of Sierra Leone
