On Saturday, November 25, 2023, the Munich Retreat was the first of its kind in Germany organised by the Concerned Sierra Leoneans Worldwide primarily to network and brainstorm and to put ideas together on how to move the organisation forward.  True to their words, determination and vision, the gallant Concerned Sierra Leoneans worldwide came up with fantastic policies to propel the organisation to higher heights.

The first major item carried out was to fill the vacancy for Chief Executive Officer CEO for Concerned Sierra Leoneans Worldwide. It was unanimously agreed that King Adebayor, the most famous Sierra Leone social media activist, was emboldened to be the new CEO. The strong men and women present at the Bonanza Munich Retreat did very well and the choice of King Adebayor to be the new CEO was a popular move.

Announced by the Master of Ceremony at last night’s historic bonanza, the eloquent social media guru Mr Imran T handled the ceremony professionally as the diners enjoyed a good meal and drinks dotted with a mixture of danceable and singable Sierra Leone oldies and new music. In the German city of Munich, the Concerned Sierra Leoneans Worldwide CSLW meeting was primarily about retreating to re-strategise and fashion out policies to progress for the betterment of all patriotic Sierra Leoneans.

As time was against us due to the penetrable cold and snowy Munich weather, the MC Imran Turay alias Imran T, was wise enough to guillotine some of the programmes and to make sure very important issues were discussed to properly inform the public about Concerned Sierra Leoneans Worldwide past ventures like the visit to the International Criminal Court ICC in August 2023 and at the United Nations in October 2023. The new CEO Adebayor who envisioned the ‘World Wide’ Dream for Concerned Sierra Leoneans addressed the crowd preaching about unity and justice in order to free Sierra Leone.

Another significant contributor last night was tireless Secretary General Madam Salamatu Kamara who gave a synopsis of how the financial contributions were spent and advised anyone who wants to get documentary proof of the expenditures to contact the Finance Department of Concerned Sierra Leoneans Worldwide CSLW. Amid the wining and dining, fitting Awards from Concerned Sierra Leoneans Worldwide were dished out to deserving Sierra Leoneans.

The German-based Sierra Leone social media guru Alhaji MS Bangura, the CEO and Founder of Global Rapid Hunt Unit was given an Award. He made interesting speeches last night. Another who received the Award was Media Blogger Kelvin Mansaray of Germany. An Award was also dished out to Dr Venod Fullah who was conspicuously absent due to unforeseen circumstances. Mr Fuad based in Germany was also awarded. The mother of the night Mama Hawa of Germany was also given the Award. And Lebanese Adebayor, real name Mr Adnan was given the Award too.

Last night’s retreat bonanza was graced by dozens of patriotic citizens from all over Europe and the UK as Concerned Sierra Leoneans Worldwide gathered in Munich. Broadening the horizon with new members, many newcomers promised to join the struggle to liberate Sierra Leone. Delicious meals prepared by the ladies of Concerned Sierra Leoneans Worldwide crowned the unforgettable 48 hours in Munich. The humanity and generosity of the host Mama Hawa of Germany and her fantastic daughters and sons-in-law need special praise, God bless. A galaxy of prominent citizens including MS Bangura, Pa Conteh and Mr Fuad graced the occasion. A prominent social media activist Kabelai also addressed the occasion.
