His Excellency, Sierra Leone’s democratically elected President in the Saturday 24th June, 2023 multitier elections, Brig. (Rtd) Julius Maada Bio, is expected back home next tomorrow Sunday 24th September, after a successful 78th Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, USA.

At the 78th UNGA, His Excellency President Julius Maada Bio as Chairman of a Committee of 10 in the Africa Union (AU) in his address put Africa particularly Sierra Leone on the global map as he delivered his keynote addresses on ''Protecting Education from Attack, Building a prosperous and secure future through Human Capital Development."

President Bio, amidst criticism back home from detractors, met with the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), Alice Albright, and fruitful discussions were held on strengthening partnership and shared commitment towards promoting sustainable economic growth and development in Sierra Leone.

The President also held fruitful discussions with the Prosecutor of ICC, Mr. Karim Khan, about Sierra Leone’s leadership at the ICC and her tenure as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council.

Meanwhile, back home, there are preparations to give President Bio a very colourful welcome demonstrating commendation and appreciation for putting Sierra Leone on the global map and working towards sustainable development.
