On 24 February 2021, Her Excellency Keisha A McGuire, Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Grenada to the United Nations, and His Excellency HE Alie Kabba, Ambassador and Permanent Representative of the Republic of Sierra Leone to the United Nations, signed a Joint Communiqué to establish diplomatic relations between Grenada and the Republic of Sierra Leone.
In accordance with Grenada’s foreign policy, the establishment of diplomatic relations with Sierra Leone further echoes the re-energising of strengthening friendly relations and cooperation with other States.
The signing of the Joint Communiqué further complements the actions of the Caribbean Community (Caricom) and the African Group’s initiatives for enhancing relations between the 2 regions.
The 2 States have been working closely at the United Nations, as Bureau Members of the Special Committee on the Situation with regard to the implementation of the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples (Committee of 24 or C24) and in other intergovernmental processes and look forward to deepening existing ties in the political, economic, cultural and humanitarian fronts.

Grenada has a long history with Sierra Leone as many of our ancestors still remain in Carricou
What does that mean? We have influx and Grenada at home are left behind. I am yet to see programs and policies which level the playing field for Grenadians at home. It seems well-to-do/petite bourgeois wants everyone to remain poor destitute and desperate.
Great! it think it is time that we start forming new relations of African countries especially Ghana and Nigeria the country of where our heritage and anscesters have come from. We are the Diaspora and we need to connect.
