Brussels-14 January 2026- In his first official meeting of 2026, Ambassador Philip Bob Jusu sat down with the OACPS leadership to talk about Sierra Leone’s place in the group. During the conversation at the organisation’s new secretariat, Ambassador Philip Bob Jusu praised the recent changes and fresh energy within the OACPS. He told Secretary-General Moussa S. Batraki that President Bio is firmly in the organisation’s corner.
