Another prominent figure in Sierra Leone history is Bai Sherbro (). Bai Sherbro was a chief and warrior in Bonte Island, which is in the southwestern part of the country. He, like Bai Bureh, exercised resistance to the British. Bai Sherbro also sent fighters to Bai Bureh’s camp to help him fight against the British. Bai Sherbro was influential and powerful, so the British greatly feared him. Bai Sherbro was subsequently captured, and along with Bai Bureh exiled to the Gold Coast, which is now modern day Ghana. http://www.sierra-leone.org/Heroes/heroes5.html.
