FREETOWN, Sierra Leone, June 10, 2016// — Ten applicants from various countries have duly subscribed to the naturalization oath of allegiance to Sierra Leone at State House. The applicants faithfully pledged their allegiance to the Republic of Sierra Leone and promised to support and uphold the Constitution as by law established.

Congratulating the new applicants, President Ernest Bai Koroma thanked them for demonstrating what he referred to as true citizenship spirit by coming forward to take the oath of allegiance and for enduring to be with us during the time of difficulties. “We don’t want fair weather citizens. We want citizens that can be with us rain or shine and citizens that are law abiding,” President Koroma told the new batch, and expressed hope that their naturalization will add value to Sierra Leone. He assured them of government’s protection if they truly abide by the laws of the country and further thanked them for joining other Sierra Leonean compatriots to make the nation proud.
