My first field visit as Minister was to Port Loko—during the height of the onion crisis. Since then, I’ve returned several times. Today, I was back for the Civic Day Series, engaging with citizens, farmers, and students, and reflecting on the progress we’ve made under H.E President @julius_maadabio’s flagship #FeedSalone and the goals that still lie ahead. When the story of #FeedSalone is written, Port Loko will stand out—not just for its resilience, but for the real, lasting change we continue to see: empowered farmers, rising investments, and a stronger bond between government and community. Big thanks to the @MoiceComm and @Cee_Bah for the platform.
