Bride
Musa Jumu
Best Man
Musa Jumu: Snr brother and best man to groom. I linked up with Jaffa ff the January 6th incursion. After eastern was routed by the junta, Jaffa took up shelter with us at a mutual uncle"s abode in Central Freetown. We instantly click ed primarily due our shared humility, ambition and scholarly interests. Jaffa aka afa was also a cookery ambush genius. No matter how hard you tried to evade him, he would always show up with a smile at the lift of the first spoon. During his days at FBC, he would often invade and ransacked spearing nobody's reserve. We would be enraged but his humor and unbashful character always got him a pass. In the US, we pursued brief career paths in the armed forces. Jaffa's potential, generosity, selflessness and ingenuity are boundless and irresistible. These have been the forces that have always kept me at arm's length with him. Posseh, I'm still learning you. However, your level faith, dedication, earnestness and organization have been inspiring. Thank you for been such a stabilizing force to us.

Marie Sesay-Conteh
Bridesmaid
Hello everyone, my name is Marie Sesay-Conteh (Jaffa).I live in The United States of America. I am ecstatic to be a part of my brother from another mother's special day. I've known Unisa from Freetown when he was attending Fourah Bay College, he was my tutor, my travel partner a brother to me. Unisa is smart, religious, patient and a hilarious guy. If it had not been for him and the help of Almighty God I would not have made it to America. Jaffa never asked for anything in return. He doesn't like me to talk about it but its time to let it be known. Unisa has been my back bone in every situation, my coming to America and my issues with my boyfriends in Freetown. Any time there was an issue, Unisa was always there. We would talk and make jokes making me forget what the problem even was. And Posseh, I met her when we lost Aunty Haja. (May her soul rest in peace). Posseh was a kind and welcoming woman from the moment I met her. Anytime you are around them you can see their love and respect for each other. I pray that God continues to bless their marriage and give them the strength to overcome any challenges.

But very stingy to me, and refuses for my kid to called him grandpa he still wants them to call him uncle. He’s refusing to get old. “Afa yu don old pa”Lol My Uncle also have a great sense of humor and there is never a dull moment with him. He will make some of the silliest jokes that forced me to laugh or smile even when I was going through some of the toughest times, way back in Freetown Sierra Leone. We could actually spend long hours conversing about both meaningful and meaningless things. Unisa I choose this day to tell you that I love seeing you happy, and I’m glad you found your happiness in your new bride. may you find happiness and true companionship in your marriage. Love is joy and joy is love Marriage symbolises both love and joy May the love and happiness you feel today shine through the years.” “Here's to a lifetime of love, happiness, and each other.

Hawa Jawandor
Bridesmaid
My name is Hawa Jawandor, I live in the United States of America in Houston, TX. Wow, I don't know where to start and where to end this about the two amazing couples Posseh and Jaffa. I know the bride-to-be for almost half of my central life. Posseh is my sister from another world. I grew up with her since childhood in Sierra Leone in the same house. Posseh parents and my mother are you the same village, they have the same language. Me and posseh went to school closer together, I eat lunch with her in our school at lunchtime in Africa. We do everything together as a sister and we are very close to each other since then. So let me stop about the bride-to-be and let me talk about the awesome husband-to-be Mr.Jaffa and how I met him. I meet Jaffa in 2007 in Maryland when I went for a visit with my two children. Wow I was amazed at the way he treated posseh and his son already tell me who is he to her. He makes me proud to be around them at that point of them. He is a good guy.
Tutu Westerhoff
Bridesmaid
Hi my name is Tutu Westerhoff, I live in Köln (Germany). It's funny, but I should be calling the bride "auntie Posseh" she is actually my small auntie because, she and my father Honourable Dauda Sulaiman Kamara are cousins. My mother says we used to play with each other as little kids when we would visit my grandmother in Lombard street, Freetown in the 70's. But Posseh and I became besties, close buddies that created beautiful memories when she came to join our family in Bonn, Germany, back in the 90's. She stayed with us for a few years before she moved to the land of milk and honey, where she met the love of her life, Unisa. Posseh and Unisa, you two together make the best romantic couple. It brings immense joy to me seeing you having life filled with adventure and romance, love and care for each other. I pray you continue to make sweet and loving memories with each other. I am honoured to be part of your bridal train and to stand by your side on that incredible day.
Mohamed Mansaray
Groomsman
Good day everyone My name is Mohamed Mansaray and I’m happy to be part of this group. I knew Unisa, partially from our days at FBC in the early 2000s but not knowing that our paths will cross again in a major way in the US. When I came to the States, I learnt that Unisa is the Uncle of my wife and they used to live together in Greenbelt. My wife always says good things about Unisa. He used to take her and my son wherever she wants and will do so even if she has to wake him up from sleep. When I came to visit my wife and son for the first time in 2005 from NJ, Unisa was the one that drove my wife to pick me up at the Greyhound bus depot. We bonded in a big way since that time. When we got married in 2010, Unisa and Posseh supported us immensely and were present for all the occasions. On the day of the wedding, he gave a befitting speech that I can still remember today. He asked me to be part of his bridal party at the 11th hour. I would not have done it for any other person. But as my wife said, this is a request we cannot deny. Unisa is just a good human being and Posseh I tell you this that you have a good person as a husband. Finally, my wife asked me to say this that Unisa is someone that does not joke when it comes to an African dish. God bless you guys union and may you always be victorious against any satanic attack. Amen and thanks.
