Fatima Maada Bio, First Lady of Government of Sierra Leone, shared on X:
“Last night, I had the pleasure of going to support my dear brother and friend, Shadi, at the Africell UNGA81 side event in New York.
Africell has been a true partner in the work we have done for women and girls in Sierra Leone.
From the very first day we launched Hands Off Our Girls, Africell stood with us, believing in the vision and supporting our efforts to protect, empower and give a voice to our girls.
That kind of partnership goes beyond business. It is about shared values, commitment and a genuine belief in the future of our young people. I want to sincerely thank Shadi and the entire Africell family for standing with me and my office from day one.
Your continued support has helped us take the message of Hands Off Our Girls from Sierra Leone to the global stage. As we continue this journey, I look forward to strengthening our partnership and doing even more for women, girls and communities across Sierra Leone and Africa.
Thank you, Africell, for standing with us.”
