During his farewell remarks, Ambassador Koroma described his tenure as “invigorating in every respect,” noting that his time in Senegal seemed short due to the enriching experiences he encountered. He highlighted the strong ties formed between the two nations and praised the Senegalese people for their “maturity, humility, and wisdom.”
President Faye, in response, thanked Ambassador Koroma for his efforts in strengthening bilateral relations between Senegal and Sierra Leone. The president emphasized the ambassador’s role in fostering cooperation and urged him to remain a “brother and friend” of Senegal. He wished Ambassador Koroma success in his new role as Sierra Leone’s Ambassador to Algeria.

The ceremony marks the end of an era of diplomatic cooperation that saw strengthened ties between Senegal and Sierra Leone, with hopes of continued collaboration in the future.
