To enhance its operational capabilities in policing remote communities, the Chinese Ambassador to Sierra Leone Leone Hu Zhangliang through his Embassy on Monday 13 June at the Police Headquarters in Freetown donated ten (10) motorbikes to the Sierra Leone Police (SLP) on.
The Hon Vice President Dr. Mohamed Juldeh Jalloh, receiving the motorbikes, informed that since President Bio’s led New Direction came to governance; one of their priorities was to support the operational capabilities of the security sectors including the Police.
The motorbikes, he went on to say, will add to the mobility assets of the SLP. “These motorbikes would be used to reach remote areas that are not motorable, provide hope to the people and facilitate efficient and effective policing,” he said.
He, therefore, admonished the police to use the motorbikes for their intended purpose.
In his contribution, the Chinese Ambassador to Sierra Leone Hu Zhangliang stated that the motorbikes were donated to support the work of the SLP, so as to help fulfill its mission in law enforcement; which he considered necessary to the development of society.
China and Sierra Leone, Ambassador Hu Zhangliang said, enjoy a cordial relationship for over 51 years.
“We are convinced that under the strong leadership of both President Xi and Bio, China and Sierra Leone’s bilateral ties have reached an important consensus”, he said.
The Embassy and the Chinese government, he assured, will continue to deepen the cooperation with Sierra Leonean brothers and sisters for more benefits.
Earlier, the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Ambrose Michael Sovula disclosed that when a country is being run by vibrant leaders, blessings and good things always come.
President Bio and his Vice President Dr. Mohamed Juldeh Jalloh, he said, are always supportive of the SLP and that the ceremony marked the demonstration of such. He also assured us that the motorbikes would be used for their intended purpose.
