Community stakeholders described the upgrade as a timely investment in both the city\u2019s cultural fabric and its public spaces.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at the ceremony on Monday, March 30, 2026, Gerjawi emphasized Africell\u2019s broader role in national development. \u201cThis project demonstrates our commitment to the people of Sierra Leone beyond connectivity. We believe in investing in initiatives that celebrate the country\u2019s rich history and strengthen community identity,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Local officials praised the partnership with Africell, noting that the restored clock tower will serve as a focal point for civic pride and a draw for visitors. Bo City Council Mayor Kobba Musa commended the company for its continued investment in infrastructure and community development, describing Africell as a \u201cserious network\u201d driving national progress.<\/p>\n<p>The renovation was conducted in partnership with the Bo City Council. Africell\u2019s involvement is part of a wider pattern of corporate-supported community projects across Sierra Leone, pairing commercial operations with visible contributions to public life. The company said it would continue to explore initiatives that support heritage conservation and community development nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>The renovated Bo Clock Tower is now open to the public, with plans for ongoing maintenance and community-led activities to ensure the landmark remains an active part of Bo\u2019s cultural and civic life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Sierra-Leone<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Sierra-Leone.
