The Chief Justice of Sierra Leone, His Lordship Honourable Justice Komba Kamanda, has arrived in the Arab Republic of Egypt to take part in a major international judicial forum bringing together senior judicial leaders from across Africa and beyond.

Justice Kamanda landed at the Cairo International Airport on Friday, 7 February 2026, ahead of the Ninth Cairo High-Level Meeting of Presidents of African Constitutional Courts, Supreme Courts, and Constitutional Councils. Upon arrival, he was formally welcomed by officials of the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, working in coordination with representatives of the Embassy of the Republic of Sierra Leone in Egypt.

The high-profile meeting is scheduled to be held from 7 to 8 February 2026 at the St. Regis Hotel in Egypt’s New Administrative Capital. The forum serves as a platform for judicial leaders to exchange perspectives on constitutional governance, judicial independence, and the evolving role of courts in democratic societies.

Chief Justice Kamanda’s participation is particularly significant, as he is among a select group of Chief Justices worldwide invited to deliver an official statement at the gathering. His inclusion highlights Sierra Leone’s increasing visibility and influence within continental and global judicial conversations.

The meeting is expected to foster stronger collaboration among constitutional and supreme courts, while reinforcing shared commitments to the rule of law, judicial cooperation, and constitutionalism across jurisdictions.
