Following the violent incident that occurred in Taiama Town on Friday, 6th February 2026, the Commissioner of the National Commission for Social Action (NaCSA), Ernest Bamba Ndomahina, has met with the bereaved Kamara and Moseray families to address the tragic death of Chief Alhaji Lamin Moseray.
The meeting took place at Chief Ndomahina’s residence in Taiama Town and brought together key stakeholders from Bai Largoh Town and Mambayema Village, both in Kori Chiefdom. The engagement was aimed at calming tensions and charting a path toward justice following the deadly dispute over ownership of a sand mining site.
Among the dignitaries present were the District Officer of Moyamba, Samura, the Local Unit Commander (LUC) of Moyamba District, the Chiefdom Speaker, Rev. Sorie Kamanda, representatives from the Office of National Security (ONS) Moyamba Branch, the Officer Commanding (OC) Taiama Police Station, Honourable Sylvester Boima, and other chiefdom and community leaders.
Speaking on behalf of the Kamara family, Honourable Keikura L. Sankoh, head of the Kamara family of Mambayema Village, explained the circumstances surrounding the incident. He stated that the dispute arose over the ownership of a sand mining site, which the Kamara family claims belongs to them. This claim, however, has been strongly disputed by the Brewah family.
Reports presented at the meeting indicated that a confrontation between late Chief Alhaji Lamin Moseray and John K. Brewah escalated into violence, ultimately leading to the death of Chief Moseray. The incident has since generated widespread tension within Taiama and surrounding communities.
All senior officials and stakeholders present unanimously condemned the violent acts that led to the loss of life. They assured both the Kamara and Moseray families that justice would be pursued and that all individuals found responsible would be apprehended and brought before the law.
The chiefdom authorities further pledged their full support to the bereaved families during this difficult period and called on residents to remain calm and law-abiding as investigations continue.
It was also agreed during the meeting that Chief Alhaji Lamin Moseray will be laid to rest on Tuesday, 10th February 2026, in his hometown of Bai Largoh Town.
Addressing the families and people of Kori Chiefdom, Ndomahina urged patience, restraint, and prayer, describing the incident as a “barbaric act” that must not be allowed to repeat itself. He emphasized the need for peace and unity while the rule of law takes its course.
