Sierra Leone: President Julius Maada Bio Sworn In After Commission Declared Him Winner

61

According to Final Results of Sierra Leone’s 24 June 2023 Presidential Election announced by the Commission for Sierra Leone (ECSL) on Tuesday, 27 June 2023:

Incumbent President Julius Maada Bio of ruling SLPP was re-elected with:
1,566,932 votes or 56% of the valid votes cast.

Dr Samura Kamara of main opposition APC came second with 1,148,262 or 41.16% of the votes cast.

Eleven other candidates received combined vote of less than 3%.

A candidate required 55% of valid votes to win the first round, otherwise, the two frontrunners go into run-off vote, which is unnecessary in this case going by the ECSL announcement.
