In January 2025, President Julius Maada Bio of Sierra Leone attended President Mahama’s inauguration in Accra, reinforcing the strong ties between the two countries.
President Mahama’s visit is expected to build on this relationship, promoting economic growth and stability in the region.
Both nations are key members of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and their cooperation is seen as crucial to advancing peace and development in West Africa.
