At least five people were killed Saturday in the town of Makeni in northern Sierra Leone, due to clashes over protest against removal of electricity generator
The West African state had been planning to move the plant to the country's international airport near the capital Freetown, which is due to resume flights on Wednesday after a months-long hiatus.
But an initial attempt triggered a riot early Saturday.
