The June 24, 2023, multi-tier elections which declared H.E President Julius Maada Bio as the winner ended in a controversy with the APC rejecting the announced results; a three-day mediated dialogue between the government of Sierra Leone and the All Peoples Congress (APC) Party was held to address the political impasse. The mediation was facilitated by the African Union, ECOWAS, Commonwealth, and The Independent Commission for Peace and National Cohesion (ICPNC).
One outcome of the mediation agreement (Resolution 3) was the constitution of a Cross-Party
Committee on Electoral Systems and Management Bodies Review (The Committee). The Committee went on to undertake its mandate and presented a report.
Below is the report submitted by the Committee.
