In response, the Port Loko City Entertainment Union is committed to facilitating an unbiased investigation into these allegations to restore harmony within the artistic community.

During the session, various stakeholders—including aggrieved artists and Mr. Sesay along with his executive team—shared their perspectives. The aim was to clarify misunderstandings and outline a path forward that embodies the union’s core values of rights, freedom, peace, unity, love, and togetherness, which are essential for the continued growth and enhancement of the music industry in Port Loko.

Mr. Mike concluded by stating that the Port Loko City Entertainment Union would handle the situation with careful diplomacy and wisdom, keeping the collective interests of the Port Loko Artists Union in mind. He warned that if Mr Sesay fails to demonstrably address the issues at hand promptly, the union would have no choice but to initiate an election process shortly. He also highlighted his contributions to the peace and progress of the Port Loko Artists Union, indicating his deep investment in the community’s future.

The meeting ended on a hopeful note, as the union outlined the following resolutions to be implemented by Saturday, March 15, 2025:

1. Both factions must submit written proposals to the entertainment union for reform before the next meeting scheduled for Saturday, March 15, 2025, at 10:00 AM.
