Hon. Bangura took the oath of office before the Speaker of Parliament in the presence of fellow lawmakers, parliamentary staff, and invited dignitaries. The ceremony was both solemn and symbolic, as it underscored the continuity of legislative representation for the people of Tonko Limba, a constituency that has long been a stronghold of the APC.
In his brief remarks following the swearing-in, Hon. Mohamed S. Bangura expressed deep gratitude to the leadership of the APC and the people of Tonko Limba for their trust and confidence in his leadership. He pledged to serve with integrity, dedication, and transparency, continuing the legacy of his late predecessor who was widely respected for his commitment to community development and public service.
“I am humbled by this great responsibility and the faith my people have placed in me. I will work tirelessly to ensure that their voices are heard, their needs are prioritized, and their development aspirations are fulfilled,” Hon. Bangura stated.
Members from both sides of the aisle welcomed the new MP, with several expressing condolences for the late Hon. Ernest Dura Koroma while extending support and cooperation to Hon. Bangura as he takes up his new legislative duties.
Political analysts note that Hon. Bangura’s entry into Parliament comes at a time when national dialogue and cooperation among political parties are crucial for Sierra Leone’s democratic progress and governance stability.
With his swearing-in, the APC maintains its representation in Parliament, ensuring the continued advocacy of the Tonko Limba people in national affairs.
