The below is rather offensive! I am white and from the UK, and have met some of the friendliest people here - everyone eager to say hello and talk - not selling you diamonds! They are busy, and eager to make money, but those are not crimes. So there might not be many 'great' places to eat and drink - the ones there are are just fine. Of course its not the same as home - but if you want that then maybe stay home.

"Kenema is a very intense place, the locals walk around with a look of permanant caution, and fear. I found that any white people in the city are offered Diamonds for sale many times per day. The trade in street diamonds goes on under the noses of the police/government forces, but nothing is done to any of the traders.

The city has no decent plces to eat or drink, only small fronted bars full of protitutes, and beggers."
