The Sierra Leone Muslim Brotherhood Mission (SLMB), being one of the oldest missions in the country, has ended its three day National Convention at the New District Council Hall in Kenema.
In his keynote address, the outgoing National President of SLMB in Sierra Leone, who is now the newly elected National Adviser of the mission, Ambassador Dauda Sulaiman Kamara, expressed satisfaction over the turn out of their members and more especially those who came from far and wide. He encouraged them for their support and loyalty to the mission.
Ambassador Dauda Kamara said, they were in trouble and that they should work out of that trouble. He hopes that the new executive under the leadership of Mr. Kanneh, his successor will do well. Talking about the smooth running of the mission, Ambassador Dauda Kamara advised the National president-elect to emulate the good examples of President Ernest Bai Koroma whose agenda for prosperity, he said, is gradually yielding dividend. He encouraged his successor to work in harmony with his membership in order to succeed in achieving their goal.

He said, he started working in the mission, as a pupil, teacher, head teacher, educational secretary, national vice president, and now the elected National President. At last he said, they are operating on two policies, the policy of the mission and that of the ministry.
