A senior official of the UNICEF in the Gambia, Madam Tida A. Joof is currently on a three-day learning process on how Sierra Leone is handling the birth and death registration services provided by the National Civil Registration Authority (NCRA).
Madam Tida Joof was accompanied by Madam Nasu Millicent Kebbie, a senior Child Protection Specialist attached to UNICEF Sierra Leone.
Nasu Kebbie said Tida Joof was in the country to understudy the registration process of children to be replicated in The Gambia, after returning from Ghana on the same mission.
In an address during a meeting held at the NCRA head office at Kingharman Road in Freetown, the Director General of NCRA, Mohamed M. Massaquoi said Sierra Leone is one of the leading countries in Africa that has done remarkable work on the registration of birth and death to the admiration of development partners.
Mr Massaquoi said they were able to succeed in the registration of birt and death due to the resilience and commitment of the management and staff of NCRA.
He noted that UNICEF had recommended countries within the sub-region to come to Sierra Leone for mentorship.
On behalf of the Board, management, and staff of the NCRA, Mr Massaquoi welcomed the visitor, encouraging her to ask questions about the birth and death services.
The Director, Human Resources Management, and Superintendent of Birth and Death Directorate, Mrs Roselyn Massaquoi explained the process of obtaining registration of births and deaths services. She said Civil Registration is a right and a must in Sierra Leone.
However, The Gambia does not have a decentralised Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS), and Identity Management system as it is in Sierra Leone which is handled by one agency and decentralised across all districts in the country
