The international community has raised concerns about voting and counting in the Sierra Leone general elections that saw incumbent Julius Maada Bio narrowly secure a second and last term.

Bio of the Sierra Leone People’s Party got fifty-six point one-seven percent of the vote, with his closest rival, Samura Kamara, of the All People’s Congress receiving forty one point one -six percent in Saturday’s election.

In a joint statement, the US, UK, Germany, and France said they noted significant logistical problems that hampered voting on election day in certain areas.
