In a bid to improve traffic flow and mitigate disorder in Freetown’s Central Business District (CBD), Inspector General of Police (IGP) Mr. William Fayia Sellu officially launched an initiative on April 9, 2025, which includes the provision of ten brand-new, customized motorbikes to the Sierra Leone Police Traffic Directorate.
This initiative marks a significant advancement in the IGP’s vision to transform the Sierra Leone Police from a conventional enforcement agency into a service-oriented institution. The primary aim of this initiative is to promote peace, development, and foster a closer relationship between the police and the communities they serve.
The newly acquired motorbikes are expected to enhance traffic monitoring and patrolling across the capital, particularly addressing the reckless behavior observed among both private and commercial motorbike riders. The initiative focuses on ensuring safer roads and smoother traffic conditions for all users.
Commissioner Abdul Moijueh, Director of Traffic Management and Road Safety, expressed confidence in the motorbikes’ capacity to fulfill their intended purpose. He assured the IGP that robust monitoring mechanisms would be implemented to guarantee effective service delivery aligned with modern policing standards.
This development underscores the Sierra Leone Police’s ongoing commitment to improving road safety and maintaining order within the city, reflecting the broader objectives of the police force to create a safer and more orderly environment for all citizens.
