Sierra Leone Telegraph: 2 March 2025:
After much uncertainty about the peace accord signed by the ruling SLPP and the main opposition APC in Sierra Leone, after the controversial June 2023 general and presidential elections, which ushered in a Tripartite agreement aimed at the implementation of recommendations of a Report on electoral reform, and pathways to promoting peace and stability in the country, it appears some progress is being achieved – though painfully slow.

There is even talk in some quarters of President Bio stepping down soon, certainly before 2028, to make way for fresh elections under the supervision of ECOWAS and ECOMOG.
