Purposeful, an Africa-rooted global hub for girls’ organizing and activism, together with 27 organizations in Sierra Leone, has signed a Position Statement strongly urging the Parliament of Sierra Leone to repeal a colonial-era law.
The statement calls for the safety and justice of all women and girls and advocates for the swift passage of the Safe Motherhood and Reproductive Healthcare Act, 2024 that was presented to parliament on the 17th December 2024.
This position statement is endorsed by 28 feminist movement partners, united in their commitment to ensuring that women and girls in Sierra Leone can live in safety, dignity, and freedom.
It is a powerful call to action, emphasizing the responsibility of Parliamentarians to protect women and girls and to enshrine this protection in law.
The passage of the Safe Motherhood and Reproductive Healthcare Act, 2024 represents a monumental and progressive step forward for the country. It seeks to abolish a centuries-old law, eliminating an outdated remnant of Sierra Leone’s colonial past.
This achievement reflects the national and international commitment of President Julius Maada Bio, who has consistently affirmed the necessity of safeguarding the lives of women and girls.

Minster of information NGO urge paliment to pass Bill
You guys are not serious. WE SAY NO ABORTION IN SIERRA LEONE
I don’t think this proposed bill should be enacted. Killing in any form is a crime. So let us not legalize abortion or simply put killing
Stupidity is really a crime
I CONSIDER YOU ALL AS FAKE FEMINISTS AND FAKE ORGANIZATIONS, WHO MIGHT HAVE RECEIVED SOME BRIBERY FROM THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION OR SOME OTHER WESTERN ORGANIZATIONS.
A REAL FEMINISTS SHOULD BE A PRO-LIFE.👇👇👇
Please Listen Carefully👂
I want you all to realize that the first feminists where pro-life…
Elizabeth C. Stanton called abortion “evil”
Sarah F. Norton called abortion a “crime”
Susan B. Anthony called abortion “child murder”
Alice Paul called abortion “the ultimate exploitation of women”
According to the sayings of those prominent feminists above, you may realize that; Abortion does not elevate women but degrades them.
The harsh truth is that… A Human Is A Human, No Matter How Small.
Every Life Is A Special Gift and Has Something Unique To Contribute To This World.
The Life Of The Unborn Child Is Of Equal To The Life Of The Mother, And Any Law That Disregards This, Is Injustice And Must Be Opposed.
We don’t believe that government can make a legislation, that will put the unborn children in a risk situation, as if they are like slaves in the prison of there mother’s womb, and that their mothers should decides, weather to sentenced them or to set them free.
The hard fact is that; the right to life is not a woman’s decision, It’s Allah’s decision, Allah is the only one, who can decide weather a person should live or die, not the mother.
I want you all to know that, you were called to stand for those who cannot stand for themselves. Just as your individual self is important to Allah, the same way one preborn baby is important to Allah.
We cannot diminished the value of one category of human life (unborn), without diminishing the value of human life. My belief is that… To have life is a blessing and to destroy life is a curse.
We should understand that… We where once in that same situation, if our mothers had aborted us, all the potentials in we could have ended long ago.
For this reason “ABORTION” is Morally Wrong and therefore; it should be Condemned.
we are calling on the government and all the law makers to realize that… It is our responsibility as a nation to set a goal, that Unborn children should be welcome in life and protected by law.
