The signing of the communiqué formed the highpoint of the stakeholders’ meeting organized by the Political Parties Registration Commission (PPRC) at the Commission’s headquarters in Freetown.

The Commission on Saturday 15^th June 2019 will organize a stakeholders’ meeting in Koidu as a follow-up to the signing.
