Alie kabba biography of mahatma

Sierra Leone Telegraph: 31 May 2019:

Yesterday, the Parliament of Sierra Leone debated and unanimously approved the recommendations of the Appointments and  Public Service Committee, which include president Bio’s appointment of Alie Kabba as the country’s representative at the United Nations in New York.

The removal of Alie Kabba as minister of foreign affairs has raised a lot of questions about the rationale of State House’s  decision, as well as drawn speculations about the health of relationship between the president and Alie Kabba.

But speaking to MPs a few days ago, Alie Kabba sounded confident about his new role and said that he respects the decision to send him to the UN to help move forward the president’s agenda of strengthening Africa’s role at the UN. President Bio is the current chairman of Africa’s Committee of Ten.

The African Union Committee of Ten Heads of State and Government (C-10) is a committee setup by the African Union (AU), with mandate to advocate and canvass the African common position on reforming the United Nations Security Council.
