Concord Times (Freetown)
August 26, 2005
Freetown Widow of the late President Joseph Saidu Momoh, Mrs. Fatmata Momoh Tuesday revealed to Concord Times that the late Head of State and President Kabbah reconciled before the passing away of her husband.
Mrs. Momoh lamented that when the health of her late husband deteriorated considerably while in exile in Guinea in 2003, she met President Tejan Kabbah and Vice President Solomon Berewa and complained. “They were very quick to respond,” she revealed and adds, “the President could not withstand it. He instructed me to go and bring my husband immediately. When the two saw each other, it was amidst tears that they embraced and forgave each other. Let bygones be bygones they said to themselves in tears.”

One of the leading contenders for the flagbearer position of the main opposition All People’s Congress (APC) has told Concord Times that he would ensure 50% cabinet position for women, if elected flagbearer of the party and subsequently president of Sierra Leone come 2023.
Chief Alhaji Thonklah Bangura made the above promise as part of his observance of the International Women’s Day, March 8,2021.
“Maximum inclusion of women in governance would enhance development in the country. And my dream is to ensure that they maintain 50% cabinet position. Women should be at the epic of decision-making so that the least man in the least village across the country will experience development,” he said.
