I welcomed Dr. Najat Maalla M’jid, the United Nations Secretary-General’s Special Representative on Violence Against Children, to State House. Sierra Leone has made significant progress in advancing children’s rights, and I appreciate your recognition of these achievements. We remain committed to building on this progress and working together to end violence against children. @UN_EndViolence
