Africa-Press – Sierra-Leone. <\/strong><\/span>The Sierra Leone\u2019s Court of Appeal in Freetown, on December 7th, 2023 affirmed the findings of the Commission of Inquiry (COI) report against former President Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma and his ex-Finance Minister, Dr. Samura Kamara and court delivered a final judgment with substantial penalties on Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma and Dr. Samura Kamara.<\/p>\n

<\/a>The COI, initiated by President Julius Maada Bio in 2018, focused on scrutinizing the activities of past government officials, particularly the eleven years of the All People\u2019s Congress administration. The Commissioners\u2014Justice Biobele Georgewill, the late Justice Bankole Thomposn, and Justice William Annan Atuguba\u2014presented their findings, implicating certain officials, including former President Koroma and some ministers.<\/p>\n

Challenging the findings after the government\u2019s White Paper release, the former officials sought redress at the Court of Appeal. Despite their appeals, the Court upheld the Commissioners\u2019 decision concerning Former Presidents Koroma and Samura Kamara\u2019s COI applications related to the Sewa Ground Market and the Sierra Rutile saga, respectively.<\/p>\n

During the court hearing, a directive was also issued for the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) to investigate Former President Koroma for alleged abuse of office and executive authority, specifically related to the Sewa Ground Market Project with the National Social Security and Insurance Trust (NASSIT). Likewise, Dr. Samura Kamara was under investigation concerning the Sierra Rutile Company dealings.<\/p>\n

The court rejection of all four grounds of the COI appeal marked a setback for the duo, with the Presiding Judges Justice Alhaji Momoh Jah Stevens, Justice Adrian Fisher, and Justice Ivan Sesay dismissing their applications.<\/p>\n

Former President Koroma, represented by Lawyers Joseph Fitzgerald Kamara, Africanus Sorie Sesay, and Brima Koroma, faced an adverse judgment. The Court has delivered a final judgment by directed the former president Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma to pay $135,000 to the Government of Sierra Leone within seven days, along with bearing the cost of Le300 million (old Leones). Similarly, Dr. Samura Kamara, presently the leader of the APC, was directed to pay $75,000 and bear a cost of Le250 million (Old Leones).<\/p>\n

This ruling signifies a crucial turn in the ongoing legal proceedings related to the COI, emphasizing the principles of accountability and transparency in governance. The decision underscores the gravity of the allegations against the former President and his Finance Minister.<\/p>\n

This ruling sends a strong message about the rule of law and the commitment to hold public officials accountable for their actions, reinforcing the principles of justice and integrity in Sierra Leone\u2019s governance.<\/p>\n
