In a recent tweet, Dr. Samura Kamara, a seasoned expert in national economic management and nation building in Sierra Leone, has voiced his concerns about the ongoing discussions involving the government, ARISE, and KINGHO in a tripartite investment relationship.
Dr. Kamara emphasized the importance of handling these matters with discretion and urged against making public statements until the relationship is properly mended.
Dr. Kamara expressed optimism that a resolution is possible and called for a thoughtful approach to prevent potential state embarrassment.
He highlighted the lukewarm investor appetite for Sierra Leone and strongly recommended bringing both companies to the table for a constructive resolution to avoid potential legal complications.
Read Samura Kamara’s tweet below:
“I listened with keen interest, as an experienced Sierra Leonean in national economic management and nation building, to recent broadcasts by very senior government officials relative to a tripartite investment relationship between government, ARISE and KINGHO. I would want to caution that whatever difficulties there are bordering on this relationship, we desist from going public until the relationship is orderly mended.
It is not impossible.
Let us urge ourselves to handle the matter thoughtfully to prevent potential state embarrassment. Investor appetite for Sierra Leone is still lukewarm. It is strongly advisable to bring both companies to the table for resolution and avert any subsequent legal entanglements.”
