    Eastern Police Clock Tower is a historic monument. The traffic towards Abacha has lessened significantly with street vendors behind a metal-designed barricade. But yet still some cross the barricade and sell on the street πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

    Demarcation point between Central and the Eastern part of Freetown! Very busy and vibrant environment. Loads of people! Watch out for passing Keke's and Okada's from both directions of the road. Make no assumptions! Pack your patience. πŸ˜€
