It’s intriguing how our journeys first converged in the vibrant world of entertainment, long before the political sphere came into view. Fatima Maada Bio, born Fatima Jabbe, began her ascent in Nollywood as an award-winning actress and producer, her talents recognized both within African cinema and beyond. During those early years, we often crossed paths at red carpet events and industry galas, where the energy of the entertainment world united us.

As her career flourished, Fatima transitioned into a role few might have predicted: First Lady of Sierra Leone. Following her husband Julius Maada Bio’s election in 2018, she brought the same tenacity that defined her entertainment career into her advocacy work. Her “Hands Off Our Girls” initiative, aimed at ending child marriage and sexual violence, has cemented her as a powerful voice for gender equality and social justice across the continent.

It’s remarkable to reflect on how our early encounters in the cinematic world have now evolved into this new chapter of political and social influence. From the limelight of entertainment to the spotlight of public service, the trajectory has been both unexpected and inspiring—underscoring the interconnectedness of our shared journeys.

Fatima Maada Bio transitioned from Nollywood star to Sierra Leone’s First Lady, using her platform to champion women’s rights through her “Hands Off Our Girls” campaign.
