Hon. Sidie Mohamed Tunis Donates $30,000 to Revive SLPP District Office Construction in Pujehun

Pujehun District, August 2024 – In a significant gesture of support and dedication to his community, Rtd. Hon. Sidie Mohamed Tunis, a respected member of Parliament representing Pujehun District and the former Speaker of the ECOWAS Parliament, has made a substantial donation of thirty thousand dollars ($30,000) to the Pujehun District Executive of the Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP). This donation is earmarked to revive and accelerate the long-delayed construction of the SLPP’s district office in Pujehun, a project that holds immense importance for the party and its members.

A Commitment to Party and Community

Hon. Tunis, known for his commitment to both his constituents and the broader political landscape of Sierra Leone, has once again demonstrated his unwavering loyalty to the SLPP and his deep-rooted connection to Pujehun District. This donation is more than just a financial contribution; it is a symbol of his enduring commitment to the growth and success of the party at the grassroots level.

The SLPP district office in Pujehun, once completed, will serve as a vital hub for the party’s activities in the region. It will provide a space for party meetings, strategizing, and engaging with the local community. For years, the construction of this office had been stalled due to various challenges, leaving the party without a central location to coordinate its activities effectively. Hon. Tunis’s contribution is set to change that, breathing new life into the project and bringing it closer to fruition.

Advancing the Party’s Goals

Ambassador Eddie Massalay, the SLPP District Chairman for Pujehun, expressed his profound gratitude for Hon. Tunis’s timely and generous donation. He emphasized that this financial boost would significantly accelerate the construction efforts, allowing the party to realize its long-standing goal of establishing a fully operational district office. The completion of this office is seen as a crucial step in strengthening the party’s presence and effectiveness in the region.

Ambassador Massalay highlighted that the office would play a key role in enhancing the party’s organizational structure, enabling better communication and coordination among party members. It will also serve as a focal point for the SLPP’s outreach efforts, helping to engage more effectively with the local population and address their concerns. In a district where the SLPP has deep roots and a strong following, the office will stand as a symbol of the party’s commitment to its supporters and its future in Pujehun.

Hon. Tunis’s Legacy of Leadership

Hon. Sidie Mohamed Tunis has a long and distinguished career in Sierra Leonean politics. His tenure as Speaker of the ECOWAS Parliament and his ongoing service as a member of Parliament have earned him widespread respect both within Sierra Leone and across the West African region. His leadership has been marked by a consistent focus on development, peace, and progress, values that he continues to uphold through his work and contributions.

This latest donation is in line with Hon. Tunis’s broader vision for his community and his party. It reflects his understanding of the importance of strong, functional institutions at the local level, and his desire to see the SLPP thrive not just in Pujehun, but across the country. By enabling the completion of the district office, Hon. Tunis is ensuring that the SLPP has the infrastructure it needs to continue serving the people of Pujehun effectively.

A Bright Future for the SLPP in Pujehun
