Sarah by birthright is a princess and one day could be Paramount Chief.Sarah had no idea that a trip to Africa to meet her biological father for the first time, would change her life forever. Bumpe, Sierra Leone, West Africa. Francis Kposowa, Sarah's grandfather, was Paramount Chief, the role her Great Uncle, Thomas Kposowa now fills. Sarah's father Joseph Kposowa was next in line to be Paramount Chief due to the beloved Kposowa name among the Mende people in the Southern Province (The Bo District). As Head Master of Bumpe High School, which was ransacked and burned during the decade long rebel war, Joseph could not in good conscience turn his back on his broken school to take on the role of Paramount Chief. His father Chief Francis Kposowa was one of the High School's founding fathers, and understood better than anyone the importance of the school to the people.

In April 2004, Sarah Culberson got a call she’d spent nearly 30 years waiting for. “This is your father, Joseph Konia Kposowa,” said the voice. “As a member of a royal family,” he told her, “you could be chief here someday.” At that moment, Sarah knew her life had changed forever.
