Former rebel leader Foday Sankoh warns that the UN should not be too hasty to disarm the estimated 45,000 armed men (of all factions) who are supposed to give up their arms. Unless the UN can come across with the promised money and goods, many of these fighters would probably prefer to keep their weapons. The UN has only 210 staff in the country to take care of the disarmament. Meanwhile, Cholera has broken out among the thousands of refugees, with several dying each day.
