For the past few years under his astute leadership as MTA, Sierra Leone has come to be recognized as one of the leading countries now focusing strongly on its Blue Economy.
Since becoming a member of the Regional Maritime University. The SLMA in the past twenty years has failed to fulfil all its obligations as a member state, producing fewer staff representation, failing to provide the much needed opportunity for its graduates to either enter into the sea faring career or other Marine opportunities.
But in recent months, the MTA Hon Kabeneh Kallon has changed that dynamism focusing strongly on pushing the government’s agenda and countries intention to revamping it’s Maritime institutions
The no nonsense hardworking, democratic politician in few months worked seriously With all his agencies especially the Maritime in domesticating major international conventions including the STCW and the Maritime Security Bill and Strategy
This effort has seen the revenue of the Maritime rise to over 38% with trade attraction and investment into the country.
It is no secret that Hon Kabeneh Kallon has excelled as the only Minister in the history of Sierra Leone politics that have excelled and transformed the Transport Ministry.
With Hon Kabeneh Kallon, Sierra Leone will soon start benefiting hugely from its Blue Economy.
We are very sure that his presence at the Regional Maritime Summit will surely bring a breath of fresh air whilst projecting and promoting the image of the country and the President’s Agenda.
