Sorious Samura - award-winning Sierra Leonean journalist. He is best known for two CNN documentary hits: "Cry Freetown" (2000) and "Exodus from Africa" (2001). Self-funded "Cry Freetown" depicts the most brutal period of the civil war in Sierra Leone with RUF rebels capturing the capital city (January 1999). "Exodus from Africa" shows the harrowing effort by the best of young African male blood to break through to Europe via death and danger ridden paths from Sierra Leone and Nigeria, via Mali, Sahara desert, Algeria and Morocco through the Strait of Gibraltar to Spain.
