President Julius Maada Bio has extended an official invitation to Dr. Samura Kamara for a National Unity and Peace Dialogue scheduled for Thursday, 2nd May 2024, at State House.

The invitation, conveyed through an official letter, outlines the purpose of the meeting, focusing on pertinent issues concerning the continued operations of the Tripartite Committee, particularly Resolution (3) of the Agreement for National Unity.

Resolution (3) of the Agreement established a Three-way Committee comprising representatives from the Government of Sierra Leone (GOSL), the All People’s Congress (APC), and Development Partners. This committee, operational since January 2024, is mandated to function for six months, with activities slated for completion by June 2024.

With progress noted thus far, the upcoming dialogue aims to address any lingering or emerging concerns, including discussions surrounding the proposal for an “Expanded Committee.” The meeting will be attended by two lead negotiators, three co-chairs, and other committee members.

The venue for this pivotal dialogue is set for the Conference Room at the Office of the Chief Minister, State House, Freetown, commencing at 11:00 am on Thursday, 2nd May 2024. Attendees are requested to confirm their participation with the Programme Assistant to the Chief Minister.
