For me, this is a big day because, as a very young man, I have served my people in this part of the country for five years under the ticket of the C4C. However, the New Direction administration was there to ensure that irrespective of my political party, my city, and my district, we could make major accomplishments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have worked with His Excellency\u2019s government and I know exactly what President Bio stands for and the development we have all achieved together as a government. So, in the interest of this municipality and the entire population of the Kono District, I have worked on, discussed with, and seen the many developments President Bio wants for this nation, including ongoing projects.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the Mayor of Koidu New Sembehun City, I want to be part of the trajectory by making sure we work towards achieving those developments in the pipeline,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Isata Feika Saffa, 25, an entrepreneur in Koidu Town, who was mobilising people, described the day as very important in the lives of Sierra Leoneans in that part of the country, pointing out that, \u201cWe are here to support Mayor Komba Sam, whom we referred to as the \u2018Back-to-Back Team\u2019 based on the tangible development he was able to achieve in the municipality as Mayor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe, the women, young people, and the elderly in Kono District, are here today not only to witness our mayor\u2019s declaration ceremony for the SLPP party, but we are also here so that our mayor will not go to the SLPP party alone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want him to continue as our mayor under the SLPP party. So, we are here to demonstrate our solidarity and to also express how happy and willing we are to go with him,\u201d she reiterated.<\/p>\n\r\n                <style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n
