What was the fate of the 2002 presidential election for Koroma?

  • Won by Landslide

  • Narrow Victory

  • Conceded Defeat

  • Election Annulled

Answer

In the 2002 presidential election, Koroma conceded defeat to his opponent, Ahmad Tejan Kabbah. This marked a significant moment in Sierra Leone's history, as it was the first time an incumbent president had peacefully transferred power to an opposition candidate. Koroma's concession was widely praised both domestically and internationally, and helped to consolidate Sierra Leone's transition to democracy after a long period of civil war.
