US Embassy Welcomes Crucial Dialogue Between Sierra Leone Government And Its Opposition
Binta Koroma The United States of America has welcomed the opening of a dialogue between the Government of Sierra Leone and the opposition All People’s Congress (APC) party, facilitated by the Independent Commission for Peace and National Cohesion and supported by international mediators from the African Union, the Economic Community of West African States, and the Commonwealth of Nations.
The US noted that though the talks may be challenging, they also present an opportunity. So, they encourage Sierra Leone’s leaders to take steps to build trust, eschew the pursuit of personal or partisan interests, and seek outcomes that benefit all Sierra Leoneans and safeguard the country’s democratic path for future generations.
“Compromise in the best interests of the Sierra Leonean people is a shared responsibility of government and opposition.” They added.
They called on all stakeholders to agree to an inclusive process for reforming democratic and electoral laws and institutions to better protect the rights and reflect the aspirations of the Sierra Leonean people.
They further urged all of Sierra Leone’s elected leaders to take their seats in parliament and in local government bodies, noting that the presence of a robust and constructive political opposition that provides space to represent the interests of their constituents is important for a healthy democracy.
They concluded by assuring their commitment to supporting the dialogue process and to working in partnership with Sierra Leone’s political leaders to advance the country’s democracy.
May the will of the Almighty God be done on that day in Jesus’ mighty name Amen.
We looking forward to a successful outcome.
😭 hmm
May Allah Azawajal grant Sierra Leoneans peace
