“A Hero to Our Generation”: Kids’ Parliament Honours IGP Sellu for Championing Children’s Welfare
The Kids’ Parliament Sierra Leone has honoured the Inspector General of Police (IGP), William Fayia Sellu, in recognition of his outstanding support and commitment to the welfare, protection and development of children across Sierra Leone.
The recognition, presented in the form of a framed appreciation portrait, commends IGP Sellu for his active participation in the Kids’ Parliament’s “Giving Back to Society – Children Supporting Children” initiative.
In its appreciation message, the Kids’ Parliament described IGP Sellu as a “friend of children” and a “hero to our generation”, highlighting his compassion, leadership, generosity, personal presence and willingness to dedicate his time and resources to supporting the initiative.
According to the organisation, the IGP’s involvement helped to bring hope, smiles and much-needed support to children within the beneficiary community.
The Kids’ Parliament further commended IGP Sellu for believing in the potential of children and inspiring them to “dream bigger, aim higher and work for a better Sierra Leone.”
The colourful appreciation portrait features IGP Sellu warmly interacting with a child, alongside images depicting children participating in activities under the Giving Back to Society programme.
The initiative forms part of the Kids’ Parliament’s broader commitment to encouraging children to support one another, give back to their communities and play a meaningful role in building a better society.
The appreciation message, signed by the Honourable Members of the Kids’ Parliament, concludes with a renewed commitment to building a brighter and more inclusive future for every child under its motto, “Building Our Tomorrow.”
The honour comes shortly after the Kids’ Parliament formally expressed appreciation to IGP Sellu for his support towards the Giving Back to Society project. The organisation also indicated plans to engage the IGP on a proposed Back to School Project, aimed at supporting children in schools within the beneficiary community.
The gesture further strengthens the growing partnership between the leadership of the Sierra Leone Police and child-focused organisations in promoting the welfare, protection, empowerment and development of children across the country.
