-Dr Ibrahim Bangura Tells Sierra Leoneans In England
Dr. Ibrahim Bangura, a prominent figure in Sierra Leone’s political landscape and a rising presidential hopeful within the All People’s Congress (APC), is set to make his maiden public political appearance in the United Kingdom. The highly anticipated town hall meeting, organized by the Friends of Dr. Ibrahim Bangura, will be held on Saturday, June 21st, 2025, at St. Luke’s Church, Peckham, London, from 4:00 PM to 11:00 PM.
“I am coming to meet with APC members in the diaspora, especially those in London. My campaign has taken me through thick bushes and across rivers, as my team continues to spread our message throughout the country. Whoever emerges as the APC Flagbearer will receive our full support, and that decision lies in the hands of the party members through the ballot,”, Dr. Bangura remarked ahead of his planned London visit.
This UK town hall meeting aims to provide a platform for Dr. Bangura to articulate his vision for Sierra Leone and the APC. According to the organizers, the event will address urgent socio-economic challenges, including economic recovery, infrastructure development, social cohesion, and good governance. Dr. Bangura is also expected to outline a strategic framework focused on transparency, stakeholder engagement, and grassroots empowerment.
The event, themed “Meet and Greet with Dr. Ibrahim Bangura”, is expected to attract thousands of supporters and curious citizens eager to hear directly from the man many describe as a credible alternative to traditional leadership in the APC. The program will feature keynote speeches, interactive Q&A sessions, networking opportunities, refreshments, and entertainment.
The executive members of Friends of Dr. Ibrahim Bangura emphasized that this occasion offers attendees the chance to clear doubts, connect with like-minded party members, and better understand Dr. Bangura’s leadership style and policy agenda.
Widely respected for his academic achievements and dedication to youth empowerment, governance, and peacebuilding, Dr. Bangura has built a reputation as a quiet yet impactful force within the APC. His extensive community service, advocacy for young people, and focus on education, job creation, and good governance position him as a candidate capable of bridging generational divides and revitalizing the party’s relevance.
Despite his behind-the-scenes role in the party, Dr. Bangura is now stepping into the spotlight, driven by what he describes as a commitment to reclaim victory for the APC through “vision, passion, and service.”
“I am ready for the challenge,” he recently stated. “Our party needs a leader with a clear ideology and a deep understanding of the APC. That’s why people are ready to rally behind me.”
Known for his integrity, unifying leadership style, and results-driven approach, Dr. Bangura’s campaign message centers on unity, action, and the transformation of both the party and the nation.
“He speaks to inspire, not to impress,” the organizers noted, adding that Dr. Bangura maintains a clean record and is widely viewed as a trustworthy leader. He has also pledged to establish strategic alliances with grassroots movements and civil society organizations to enhance the APC’s outreach and mobilization efforts.
As Sierra Leoneans in the UK prepare to welcome Dr. Bangura, the event is expected to serve not only as a political rally but also as a defining moment in his campaign; offering a detailed profile of the man many believe is ready to lead with integrity, competence, and vision.
