The Supreme Court of Sierra Leone has directed the Motor Drivers and General Transport Workers Union to conduct its national executive elections no later than June 30, 2025, while also mandating the regularization of all union memberships.
The ruling follows a legal dispute between Alpha Amadu Bah, the union’s current president, and Mr. Abu Saidu, which led to an earlier injunction on March 20, 2025, halting the elections.
The conflict escalated when Bah filed a Notice of Motion on November 20, 2024, seeking court intervention to prevent alleged external interference in the union’s electoral process. The Supreme Court initially issued an injunction, barring all parties from proceeding with the elections until a final decision was reached.
In its latest ruling, the Supreme Court has now set a deadline of June 30, 2025, for the union to hold its elections, ensuring compliance with legal and procedural standards. The court also emphasized the need to regularize all union memberships, likely addressing concerns over voter eligibility and fair representation.
