US Bishop to Boost Agriculture
A US citizen, Bishop William Lock is to establish an agricultural project for farmers in Sierra Leone. He expressed his intention at a meeting with more than 60 farmer groups, stakeholders and the Member of Parliament of Constituency 54 in Lungi, Kaffu Bullom Chiefdom.
Bishop Lock said his organisation, KAMLOCK International, would work with farmers in the country. He said the project would be based in the Kaffu Bullom Chiefdom, with the aim of extending it to other chiefdoms in the country.
He said the project would start in November with the arrival of agricultural equipment and American farmers. The MP for Constituency 54, Mohamed Khalil Kanu said the project would create employment opportunities especially for the youth. The Paramount Chief of Kaffu Bullom Pa Alimamy Kargbo Kapen said he was ready to offer land for the proposed agricultural project. Â
