In a recent interview with SL News Blog, Chief Minister Dr. Moinina David Sengeh disclosed that President Julius Maada Bio has occasionally introduced him as the Prime Minister during specific gatherings. This revelation follows Dr. Moinina David Sengeh’s recent visits to Koinadugu, Bombali and Tonkolili districts.

Dr. Moinina David Sengeh clarified that while the President sometimes refers to him as Prime Minister in certain contexts, his primary concern remains his responsibilities rather than titles.

“Interestingly, in certain contexts, no lesser a person than the President sometimes introduces me as his Prime Minister. However, it does not matter what people choose to call me—be it Prime Minister, Chief Minister, Ordinary Minister, Youngman Minister or Headman Minister. What truly matters is my function, which includes leading coordination and delivery for the Government and I am enjoying that responsibility,” he remarked.

He further stated that his focus is on executing the duties of his office rather than being preoccupied with titles. He noted that different countries use various terminologies for Government coordination roles and reaffirmed his dedication to serving the nation.

“President Bio is a fantastic leader and a great mentor. Every time we converse, I ensure I have my notepad to take detailed notes. The growth and development I have achieved over the years are due to his guidance, and I hope to pass on his influence to younger generations,” he added.

Dr. Moinina David Sengeh accompanied President Bio to Marampa Mines in Lunsar, where over $3.5 million was allocated to local authorities through the Community Development Fund. Following this, he proceeded to Makeni to engage stakeholders on Human Capital Development initiatives.

After parting ways with President Bio in Bombali District, Dr. Moinina David Sengeh continued his tour to Kabala, where he engaged residents on the Government’s key development priorities, known as the Big Five, as well as the Tripartite Initiative aimed at fostering national unity.

As part of efforts to assess progress and address challenges associated with President Bio’s Big Five Development Agenda, Dr. Moinina David Sengeh met with the Council of Paramount Chiefs in Masiaka. This high-level engagement gathered Paramount Chiefs from across the country to evaluate the achievements and obstacles encountered in implementing the Government’s strategic initiatives.

With his unwavering dedication to governance coordination, Dr. Moinina David Sengeh continues to play a crucial role in advancing Sierra Leone’s development agenda under President Bio’s leadership.
