Tourism Tech: The Tourism Ministry soft-launches WAKABOT, an AI tourism chatbot and trip planner for World Tourism Day, aiming to modernise discovery while keeping culture front and centre. Digital Economy Coordination: At UNGA, Sierra Leone convenes energy, telecom and trade officials to link reliable power, connectivity and data infrastructure for digital growth. District Delivery Check: MoPED reports 73.28% progress on district action points, while flagging health financing, drug issues, boundary disputes and abandoned projects needing urgent attention.
