Whenever an African president supports the Neo-colonialist west to exploit the mineral wealth of his people, the west will ordain him with titles such as statesman to show superiority among his people. But, out of it all, there are relevant concerns of public curiosity.

Former APC President, Ernest Bai Koroma has a very interesting curriculum. Born in Makeni Town, attended the Magburaka Boys Secondary school, Graduate from the Fourah Bay College, was part of the executives that protested against the Totalitarian leadership of APC’s Siaka Stevens in 1977, little did he know that he will do the same or even more in 2007-2018. His credentials are not too much of academic vice although he taught at the St. Francis Secondary School in his natal home Makeni before joining the insurance world where he made friends with many including his always answerable Minkaiku Mansaray who is always secondary in leadership after Ernest Bai Koroma. Case study deputy chairman and leader of APC party.

But, if Shekou Toure or Kwame Nkruma were among the living population, Ernest Bai Koroma would never be their choice, the reason is simply they discourage the presence of the white man and turn Anti –Colonialist to build their continent. Ernest Bai Koroma Former President of Sierra Leone on other hand would prefer to join the NEO-Colonialist and award 99 years of mining rights to the African Minerals Company, but which president in Africa or elsewhere can award a concession of 99 years to a foreign mineral company if a deal was not struck between the political leadership and the company executives and shareholders.

Capitalism is a blessing to economically and politically developed nations of the world, a curse to developing nations of Africa, the Caribbean, and the Asian continent, its purpose is to inject investment, into developing countries among which you have lower salaries been paid to the working class, lower taxation paid to the government, neglect to fulfill the social conditions of the masses under the corporate social responsibility spectrum and a bargain trust with the political leadership to neglect all labor laws confined in the International Labor Organization (ILO) as workers benefits and privileges are disown by these investment corporate.

The African Mineral Company had all the constitutional protection it deserves under Ernest Bai Koroma’s leadership; the truth is that the African Mineral Company in turn respects its formal and informal concessions. Formal concessions mean paying an annual tax concession without any review of its activities. Gives donations in times of natural or otherwise disaster events could even do other extraordinary concessions from its 0.2% gains saved in our commercial banks.

The informal concession is where Ernest Bai Koroma falls; African Minerals has more than five saving accounts in developed country’s banks. One bank account is to remit concession monthly to another foreign bank account as the agreed payment due to Ernest Bai Koroma on his bank account, Another bank is to remit finance on a shareholding investment to other banks on behalf of corporate companies, Another bank is to maintain capital or the purchase of materials and logistics that may be required for mining purposes, Another bank account is to remit payment as salaries to all foreign experts employed by the company, Another bank account is to pay taxation to the country for money laundering, Another bank account is for the families of the shareholders and other emergencies, Another bank account is to rescue under agreed circumstances projects in order countries.

All the monies in these bank accounts come from sales of the Iron ore taken from the soil of Sierra Leone to benefit other nations and their subjects and those belonging to the Ernest Bai Koroma dynastical cause of the time while the indigenes where the minerals are taken from count their days to die as they are strangled in chain poverty.

In contradiction, take for example the diamond-rich southern Africa country of Botswana rated by the West as the fastest developing African country, while Sierra Leone misused its Iron ore, bauxite, diamonds like the case of Siaka Stevens and the diamond star of Sierra Leone, Rutile like the constitutionally arguable takeover of Sierra Rutile by an Australian giant company, a deal which implicated Ernest Bai Koroma’s Nephew John Sesay then managing Director, the government of President Bio cannot revoke the deal for fear that any international court of Arbitration cannot rule in its favour because all contractual technicalities were duly signed and sealed by Ernest Bai Koroma and parties, the comparison here is this, The citizens of Botswana don’t need to cross the oceans in search of fortune to the west, everything that is gained from the exploitation of its diamonds goes to its citizen social and medical assurance and insurance, cheap foodstuffs, good road network, 0.0% corruption rate, well paid salaries, equal distribution of the nation’s wealth and even dashing money to someone is a crime.
