During a recent meeting at the United Nations, Sierra Leone's president emphasized the urgent need for Africa to have a stronger voice in the Security Council. President Julius Maada Bio advocated for African countries to be granted additional council seats, including two permanent positions with veto power.
Bio highlighted Africa's historical underrepresentation in the Security Council, labeling the current structure as imbalanced and outdated. He stressed that Africa, with its rapidly growing population and significant contributions to peacekeeping efforts, deserves greater recognition and influence within the council.
