Sierra Leone Flag hoisted at the UN Security Council Chamber.
On Tuesday, January 2, 2024, the Ambassador and Permanent Representative of the Republic of Sierra Leone to the United Nations, His Excellency Dr. Michael Imran Kanu, joined his four other colleague Permanent Representatives to install their respective national flags as newly elected members of the United Nations Security Council, marking the official beginning of their two-year tenure.
The groundbreaking event occurred in the UN Security Council media stakeout area outside the Council’s chamber. It is a solemn symbolic ceremony for member states joining the United Nations body with the primary responsibility of maintaining international peace and security. This is the second time, in 62 years of the country’s membership of the UN, that Sierra Leone is undertaking this important collective responsibility.
In his statement, Ambassador Kanu stated that Sierra Leone’s “return to the Security Council is a concrete manifestation of the leadership of His Excellency, President Julius Maada Bio, whose New Direction foreign policy embodies our national ambition to contribute to strengthening multilateralism and enhanced international cooperation to maintain global peace and security, protect and promote fundamental human rights and achieve sustainable development”.
Sierra Leone will pursue its priorities based on partnership and a representative approach to sustained global peace and security and shall “work within the formulation of the A3 plus, the E10 and with the P5, to most significantly make the Council take meaningful action, and timeously, in maintaining international peace and security, underlining the utility of regional arrangements and regional ownership”.
Sierra Leone achieved a significant milestone on June 6, 2023, when it was elected to the non-permanent category of the UN Security Council for the term 2024 to 2025. Sierra Leone is returning to the UN Security Council as a non-per

Some years ago, I sent a mail to a superior. I still have that mail.
The content of that mail was simple. I pleaded with him to be a bit more patient with us, his employees. I stated in that mail that being the owner of his vision, he is right to be several steps ahead of those of us helping him to actualize it.
I told him that we were all trying to satisfy him anyway and that we would all do better if he relaxed a bit.
I also said that I am certain I am a very resourceful young man and that I could personally do a lot better if he became a bit more accommodating.
After everything I said, the only thing he said was "that boy is proud."
Proud for letting you know that I am a resourceful young man? I am, sir! I can say this 700 times over and the proofs abound. I am. Proud for asking you to be a bit more humane? Isn't that just right in the sight of God?
Encountering this video tonight brought back that memory.
Indeed, his method has destroyed the self esteem of a lot of persons associated with him, even to date. To assert his leadership, he breaks them down. Turns them to footmats so he can "mentor" them.
One day when he reflects on all and how he has been, I hope he realizes how many identities he destroyed for being a really poor manager of people.
Not me.

In this video, Sierra Leone's security forces are alleging that they were shot at from APC’s party headquarters at railway line in Freetown. They showed evidence of empty bullet shells from a AK 47 rifle and a pistol which appear to have come from armed men who were cornered in the top floor of the building. They seem to be showing the evidence to international observers.
Sierra Leone’s capital Freetown is currently under siege- there are road blocks, firing of teargas and alleged firing of live bullets in some parts of the city. Businesses have shut down and residents are running to safety. There are allegations of two people who have been shut dead. This is happening after President Julius Maada Bio had just addressed the nation and called for peaceful elections. The leadership of the main opposition All People’s Congress has however throughout this week requested the Sierra Leone Police to permit them to stage what they say is a peaceful protest. The police has denied the request citing certain sections of the law. Sierra Leone will go into the polls on Saturday, June 24, 2023.
