Internal Affairs Minister assures Politicians

Internal Affairs Minister, Rtd. Major Alfred Palo Conteh has assured politicians and Sierra Leoneans that the proposed Civil Registration exercise will be transparent and credible. The National Civil Registration is expected to take place in September this year.

The Civil Registration is aimed at producing data on citizens to be subsequently used by the National Electoral Commission. He gave this assurance on Monday at the Miatta Conference Hall.
He informed the gathering of his plan to involve all stakeholders in the exercise noting that public involvement will make the document, public-owned, and the exercise a community or locally-owned. He emphasized his belief in decentralization of functions and therefore assured the participants that he will ensure that the exercise reaches the farthest villages in the country.
