Presidential Townhall and The Presidential Magazine

Once a year the President travels to a regional city to take questions from the public. The campaign’s first job is to collect those questions.

Presidential Townhall and The Presidential Magazine: cover image

The townhall went to Kenema in June 2025 and Makeni in June 2026. Every flyer leads with how to take part: send a question by SMS to the short code 818, or through a short link. Around that I designed save-the-dates, registration, invitations, accreditation tags colour-coded for staff, media and photographers, sponsor walls, the stage set and the entrance arch.

Each year the Ministry also published a magazine on the government’s record. I laid out both issues, including a Sierra Leone at a Glance data page.

Questions first
