On September 12, 2024, President Julius Maada Bio officially launched the Sierra Leone Justice Sector Reform Strategy at the New Brookfields Hotel in Freetown.
This significant initiative aims to enhance the efficiency, effectiveness, and accountability of the country’s justice system, ensuring equitable access to justice for all citizens.
In his address at the launch, President Bio emphasized the importance of timely justice as a cornerstone for a thriving, just, and resilient state.
He outlined key achievements of his administration, including the abolition of the death penalty, the overhaul of the Criminal Procedures Act, and substantial investments in judicial infrastructure and training.
President Bio reaffirmed his government’s commitment to continuing critical reforms in the justice sector, asserting that the launch of this new strategy represents a further step in supporting and advancing these reforms.
The Justice Sector Reform Strategy is expected to foster a more responsive and accessible legal system, reflecting the government’s dedication to justice and rule of law in Sierra Leone.
Maada Bio believes in the Extra judicial killings of his people and NOT in the judicial system where everyone should be presumed innocent until proven guilty by a competent court of law. It’s a facade and complete hypocrisy for him to be wasting taxpayer’s money holding seminars talking about abolishing the death penalty when in his own admission that under his watch and command, a lot of killing of innocent Sierra Leoneans have taken place. In his words during the campaign for the elections he stole, he said and I quote, ” we nor dae kill posin again, we don open the political space” end of quote. The earlier you he quits office, the better for him and his family. He’ll pay dearly for thinking his life is better than those he has killed.
