MRU Launches Unified Parliamentary System for Sierra Leone, Guinea, Ivory Coast, and Liberia
The Mano River Union (MRU) has officially launched a unified parliamentary system, bringing together Sierra Leone, Guinea, Ivory Coast, and Liberia. This agreement was reached following extensive discussions among the speakers of parliament from the four nations.
The new parliamentary system is designed to tackle issues that impact all member states, promoting collaboration on development projects and bilateral initiatives. It will further serve as a conflict resolution platform, aiming to enhance regional stability and cooperation.
The Speaker of Sierra Leone’s Parliament, Hon. Segepoh Thomas, was reportedly awarded the title of Best Speaker in recognition of his leadership in this initiative.
His efforts, alongside those of Hon. Abdul Kargbo, the minority leader of the All People’s Congress (APC), were notably helpful in achieving the crucial milestone for Sierra Leone and its neighbors.
