“We Will See More Women in Government Than Ever” – Education Minister David Sengeh on Bio’s Re-Election

The Minister of Basic and Senior Secondary School Education (MBSSE), David Moinina Sengeh, has reaffirmed President Julius Maada Bio’s commitment to supporting women in governance.

Sengeh made this affirmation statement in a Twitter post following President Bio’s re-election on Tuesday.

“As our new government is being formed, we will see more women in government than ever,” he stated.

He noted that Sierra Leone is about to enter a new era for women in government with President Bio’s re-election by Sierra Leoneans.

He also mentioned that in their previous administration, President Bio passed a law requiring a minimum of 30% women in all appointments, which he reaffirmed would be implemented in the next administration.

On Tuesday, the Chief Electoral Commissioner, Mohamed Kenewui Konneh announced that President Bio was re-elected with 56.17 percent of votes cast, and his top rival Samura Kamara, of the All People’s Congress (APC), came second with 41.16 percent. However, Kamara was quick to reject the results, citing a lack of transparency in the tabulation of the election results.

Are these people claiming to be sierra leoneans, yet asking for sanctions on the country after a credible election really serious or are they the smuggled people dropped in diffrent countries by former thieving apc governments, now bwing made persona grata in those countries afraid of being deported to their countries of origin or are they just being used by fugitives fron the past apc governments, now running liw on cash? If they knew what sanctions mean they should not be gaffing like that. I hope they will remain on the bench for the next five years and beyond.
