Vice President of Sierra Leone, Dr. Mohamed Juldeh Jalloh, has expressed deep satisfaction following the recent approval of the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) Compact for Sierra Leone. He described this approval as one of the largest MCC Compacts in the region.
In a Twitter post, Dr. Jalloh stated, “I am extremely pleased that today Sierra Leone was approved by the MCC Board for one of the largest Compacts in the region. This is a momentous occasion and a tangible step towards transforming Sierra Leone’s energy sector and ensuring affordable power. It will accelerate private sector development and sustainable economic growth.”
The MCC’s Board of Directors, during its quarterly meeting on Wednesday, June 26, approved a USD 480 million Energy Compact for Sierra Leone. This makes it the largest per capita investment in the subregion.
The MCC had published on November 4, 2022, that Sierra Leone passed 11 out of the 20 indicators, marking its fourth consecutive pass and positioning the country favorably for the development of the Compact.
The journey to this milestone began on January 25, 2021, when Vice President Jalloh, who has been overseeing the MCC process from the Threshold level to the Compact stage, led a delegation to Senegal. The team, including Cabinet Ministers, the Financial Secretary, and the CEO of MCC Sierra Leone, aimed to learn from Senegal’s successful Compact development process. They focused on understanding the analysis and consultation phases, particularly the root cause analysis that prioritized areas in the energy sector.
The approval of this Compact is expected to significantly impact Sierra Leone’s energy infrastructure, promoting private sector growth and sustainable economic development.
This man would never stop lying against the poor & gullible in Sierra Leone. So much deception from this contemporary an invariably comprehensive lier.
Mr. Man why these bogus hyperbole. Look this exactly how lazy & do nothing people place in high position of trust do behaves.
How do you expect Sierra Leone as a country to continue to survived on the platform of hand-out. For how long?. What a shame to dysfunctional and do nothing imposter so-called government.
Your criminal cartel imposter bogus government have destroyed the country. Please pack up and leave, you good for nothing.
Sierra Leone as a country is 1000 times by far better than dancing for $450,000 million dollars. Look our Marian resources alone can generate 5 billion dollars per annually.
But your “do nothing” criminal cartel regime have just wasted 6 years for nothing. You failed to achieve success because you have already destroyed pressures commodity call “investors” “confidence.”
It’s now too late
