Dearest beloved in the lord,
My name is Raymond Bahyi, 23 years from Sierra Leone. My father and I escaped from our country at the heat of the civil war after loosing my mother and two of my senior sisters in the war. As a result of the political instability in my country even after the war, my father established his cocoa and coffee export business in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
