Former Sierra Leone President, Ernest Bai Koroma has returned to his country after more than two years of temporary stay in Nigeria.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu, according to a statement, accompanied Koroma to Freetown on the instruction of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo also joined the Minister to accompany Koroma back to Freetown.
The statement which was signed by Dr. Magnus Eze, Special Assistant on Communication and New Media, office of the minister of Foreign Affairs, said his return marked the successful conclusion of a regional diplomatic and confidence-building process.
Koroma had relocated to Nigeria in January 2024 following engagements by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) aimed at promoting peace, stability and political understanding in Sierra Leone.
