The Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Karim Asad Ahmad Khan KC has met with Sierra Leone’s President Julius Maada Bio on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
In a tweet, the International Criminal Court said the meeting centered around positive discussions on strengthening cooperation and deepening regional dialogue in fulfillment of the Rome Statute.
Confirming the meeting, President Bio expressed delight at the event adding that it was a discussion about Sierra Leone’s leadership at the International Criminal Court and our tenure as a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council.
“Prosecutor Karim Asad Ahmad Khan KC called for the excellent partnership between Sierra Leone and the ICC to be strengthened. This includes calling on Sierra Leone to assume leadership of the African members of the UN Security Council (A3) on accountability and ICC matters.” Bio said.
He further mentioned how Prosecutor Khan extolled Sierra Leone’s commitment to the rule of law.
“During the meeting, I reiterated Sierra Leone’s commitment to promoting accountability and #humanrights protection during our tenure at the Security Council.
“I also emphasised my government’s readiness to continue our leadership role in supporting the effectiveness of the ICC as it continues to operate within its mandates and with constituency.
“I expressed our readiness to work with the ICC during our tenure at the Security Council to advance priorities to help build a just, safe and secure world.” He added.
Good morning ApC and Ppp. The outcome of the meeting between the ICC and President Bio is revealed what else do have to say?
Finally finally finally dae meeting don end ooo. APC what next?
Very good discussion actually Sierra Leoneans our mindset is disturbing us seriously
The Republic of Sierra Leone is flying high and higher than expected in the Global Peace and Security Order. Some unpatriotic and selfish dogs in Sierra Leone are looking for holes to excuses,sham accusations, bloodletting, and unprofessional behavior to disrupt our values and interests in the world at mockery state again. Who is the Culprits now in Sierra Leone??
That’s not the outcome of the meeting?
One president bio is under house arrest
Sierra Leoneans needs to be prayerful and avoid the miss use of God talent. Stop the abusing statement indecisive comments and more over
Just wait my brother they are going to fabricate in a way that their people 👭 will believe
All A.P.C and P.p.p members are crazy guys
Now to my brothers and sisters, what is the way forward for our nation?
We have all seen a summary outcome of the meeting we were all looking forward to, either positively or negatively. My take right now is that we have TWO OPTIONS. (1) to tone down our voices and actions against our country and move this country forward with positive vibes so that respect and dignity will come to us, which in turn can invite investors and more visitors to our country or. (2) increase the volume of negativity and inviting more destruction upon ourselves and our image to the outside world, so that we can be thrown out of the ‘Security council’ and be seen as unserious nation and neglected by the outside world… To my fellow Sierra Leoneans, I will say, choose wisely.
It is clear Mr Kahn is doing a diplomatic work bringing our so called president to his mind and also involving him. Try to understand the outcome of the meeting..
We read what the president said he expressed to the ICC Chairman. In the Spirit of patriotism, nothing about the meeting is actually revealed in this post. It is just a journalist use of words to attract readers.
Nothing was prevailed here. We can only take president Bio’s word for it. Khan hasn’t said anything here. Only statements from your president. It is laughable to say there is human rights in Sierra Leone. But paopa dogs have no brain and cannot see things even though they are not blind.
😆😆😆😆😆🤣🤣
This one e sweet me.
Wi naber den eating again.
S.L🇸🇱 is flying high.
They will manufacture another lies before tomorrow. They will never relent in their evil practices for mama Salone.
A very big shame to the educated fools in APC. Maada is now in detention in ICC and will not come back to Sierra Leone, fools. Maada will continue to fly the flag of this country like an eagle 🦅🦅🦅🦅 and those planning to demonstrate in today’s meeting at New York is a big slap of their faces. Some white people are not stupid like APC members as they knew those responsible for the unrest in our country and it will be better for APC to comport themselves now
May the Almighty God help Nation.
Many of you do not mean good for the nation and the slpp party, all you are doing is to be recommend and have job or being paid for.
However, if you want to comment on issues like this is not attacking the opposition or the people of Sierra Leone because many of the ppp are 80% Sierra Leonears. So please be mindful of your comments if you are doing it in the interest of the nation’s.
Please fellow Sierra Leonean in all categories let forget about all bad doing and focus on developmental issues.
APC dogs and pigs home and a road are now ashamed of themselves. Samura Kamara babu yai ooooo.
All I see here is one side standing up for our right, another the others, everything is going on in Sierra Leone as it supposed to be. Here is an election where in before the results are to be announced, the united state of America, the big dogs that we rely on, telling you Bio to stop the announcement and make thorough tabulations of the results. You know what that means? It is simple stating that your government will not be international recognized by the West. And don’t tell me who care? Because even simple onions we don’t have. To come to topic, whatever discussion between ICC and Bio, we will not know. But to call you in for discussion means a checkmate in on you now. Camera focus on you. Let people don’t fool us. The ICC has nothing to do with the security council. Not every nation at the UN sign up to the ICC. So Sierra Leone being given a temporary sit for one year has nothing to do with ICC. ICC is always concerned about human right violations. Bio will come to justice. He never shoot no body personally. But allowing police and the military to use deadly force on civilians is not good and must be condemn. If half of the country is not happy with you and your rule, what are you to do as some one who said I am president of a nation? You obey the rule of law and engage a dialogue to know how to apiece the other half. We Sierra Leone love our country. Some nations like somalia don’t care. They will keep on fighting till they reduce their country to a fail state. I hope people wise up and condemn wrong doing and applaud good deeds.
We pray peace and the success of our leaders in their development agenda for our country Sierra Leone
APC members are disgraced to Sierra Leone
We just have to take it easy and move on , 5 years is not too far.
Really some people are supporting their political party in the wrong way as if everything is ok for them.
If you check them kinly, even campaign money have never reached their eyes 👀👀. So-so Bigfool supporters.
I laugh in Chinese 🤣🤣🤣. This is a big shame to the APC fools.
Oh Salone, e sorry oo… people are dieing, starvation is growing day by day, the country is getting worser than ever before… but unpatriotic citizens are still blindly following and supporting this misdirected regime. Na kaka lef for make some man eat b4 dem go soba. STAND FOR WHAT IS RIGHT FOR YOUR COUNTRY… NOT WHAT WILL DISTROY THE COUNTRY YOU SAY YOU LOVE. Una wait small, una go begin eat unasef dae.
