Kamara-Taylor Attends Diaspora Engagement with APC Flagbearer Candidate Dr Ibrahim Bangura in UK

March  2026_As part of ongoing diaspora engagements within the All People’s Congress, Abubakarr Kamara-Taylor accompanied Mustapha Azick Conteh (popularly known as Port Loko Borbor), the APC Diaspora Young Congress Leader, on a courtesy visit to Dr Ibrahim Bangura, a prominent APC flagbearer candidate.

The engagement took place in the United Kingdom as part of preparations for the third edition of the APC Diaspora Young Congress Fundraising and Celebration Night, scheduled for March 28, 2026. The fundraising event will be a key platform for increasing diaspora support, mobilising resources, and strengthening party unity among APC members abroad.

Strategic Engagement with Flagbearer Aspirant

The meeting with Dr Ibrahim Bangura provided an important opportunity for dialogue between senior party officials and one of the party’s emerging national leaders. As a flagbearer candidate, Dr Bangura’s attendance and participation in the engagement highlighted the importance of inclusive consultations among party stakeholders as the APC continues internal discussions on leadership, strategy, and future electoral prospects.

During the interaction, Abubakarr Kamara-Taylor used the opportunity to expand his ongoing consultations with diaspora stakeholders, exchanging ideas on party organisation, unity, and the strategic direction needed to strengthen the APC’s structures in Sierra Leone and across its global networks.

The presence of key party stakeholders

Several notable APC figures attended the event, adding to the party’s organisational strength across regions and diaspora structures. Among those present were Sylvester Sheku Suaray (also known as Triple S), the APC Deputy Southern Regional Chairperson, Khalid Kamara, the APC UK & Ireland District Organising Secretary, Comrade Billard, and other respected party stakeholders.

Their participation reflected the spirit of collaboration and the ongoing commitment of APC members in the diaspora to support party activities, improve organisational coordination, and promote unity among party structures.

Strengthening Diaspora Collaboration

The visit highlighted the APC diaspora community’s growing role in party mobilisation, strategic dialogue, and resource generation. Leaders like Kamara-Taylor continue to strengthen the party’s tradition of broad consultations and inclusive participation by involving both national aspirants and grassroots organisers from other countries.

Conclusion

The meeting with Dr Ibrahim Bangura and other diaspora stakeholders is another step toward improved communication and collaboration within the APC. As we prepare for the upcoming fundraising event and broader party engagements, these consultations are critical to reaching consensus, building unity, and positioning the party for future political success.
