The party is also cleared to hold an engagement at Casablanca Field, Aberdeen Road New Market, in the Western Urban District on Sunday, October 11.
The police, however, made clear that the clearance is strictly limited to meetings at the designated venues and does not authorise processions, rallies or jogging activities. The use of marshals is also prohibited.
The Sierra Leone Police further reminded the LPP that the approved activities must comply with the provisions of the Public Order Act No. 46 of 1965 and the Road Traffic Regulation, 2007.
