Speaking at the award ceremony, Dr Sengeh described the occasion as a memorable evening with family, friends, and colleagues, and expressed gratitude to the SLPP for the honour. He reflected on his upbringing in a family deeply committed to public service, noting that several generations of his relatives have served their communities and country as imams, chiefs, lay readers, teachers, public servants, and NGO workers.

Dr Sengeh described the SLPP as a progressive social democratic party and said it remains the only political party he has known, served, and contributed to throughout his life.
