Lt. Col. Musa Gbow Elected PC of Njaluahun Chiefdom
Lieutenant Colonel Musa Gbow has been elected as the new Paramount Chief of Njaluahun Chiefdom following a highly anticipated chieftaincy election in Kailahun District.
The election came after an extensive declaration and eligibility process, in which local authorities cleared six candidates to contest the chiefdom’s highest traditional office. Official records published on September 27 confirmed Musa Donald Gbow among the six fully qualified aspirants.
In a decisive victory, Lt. Col. Gbow secured 888 votes from the chiefdom’s electors, outpolling his competitors to secure the mandate to lead Njaluahun Chiefdom.
The election result marks a major milestone for the region. Community members now await the formal inauguration, where Chief Gbow will officially assume his traditional leadership responsibilities in accordance with customary practices and Sierra Leone’s Chieftaincy Act.
Local stakeholders express hope that the new leadership will usher in an era focused on community development, peace, and strengthened unity across the chiefdom.
