The National Revenue Authority (NRA), under the leadership of Commissioner General Mrs. Jeneba J. Bangura, has completed a major renovation of the Jendema Border Crossing Point Community Health Centre. This initiative, part of the NRA’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program, has significantly upgraded healthcare infrastructure and enhanced service delivery for the Jendema community.
The project, spearheaded by Mrs. Bangura and executed by the Jendema Customs Office under NRA Resident Manager Mujiru I. I. Kallon, involved the removal of the old, leaking zinc roof and the raising of the building’s gable to improve ventilation and structural integrity. A new zinc roof was installed to provide long-term protection for the facility.
Inside the health centre, new ceilings were fitted, and the building was fully electrified with a solar power system to ensure a reliable and sustainable energy supply critical for uninterrupted healthcare services. The facility was also freshly painted and furnished with essential furniture, creating a clean, welcoming environment for both patients and healthcare workers.
The renovation was carried out with the patronage of Paramount Chief Mustapha J. Massaquoi III of Sorogbema Chiefdom, who appointed a local oversight committee to ensure transparency and community involvement. The committee included Chiefdom Youth Chairman Mr. Taillu Massaquoi, Chiefdom Security Coordinator Mr. Mohamed Rogers, and Town Chief Hajji Sheriff, all of whom played key roles in supervising the project.
Special acknowledgment goes to Mr. King from the Office of the First Lady and Mr. Salim Feika for their valuable contributions to the successful completion of the renovation.
This project underscores the effective collaboration between national institutions and traditional authorities and highlights the NRA’s growing role as a development partner committed to improving the lives of Sierra Leoneans. Under Commissioner General Bangura’s visionary leadership, the NRA continues to demonstrate that good governance, community engagement, and social responsibility are essential to building a healthier, more prosperous Sierra Leone.
