Samura Kamara Extends COVID – 19 Grants to Tonkolili District
When he ran for President in 2018, social protection for the vulnerable grassroots was an integral component in Dr. Samura Kamara’s campaign manifesto.

Yesterday in the Tonkolili district headquarters, Magburaka, the campaign team of Dr. Samura Kamara provided Millions of Leones as grants to support individuals and groups.
This was part of a nationwide project to cushion the economic burden occasioned by the COVID – 19 pandemic on ordinary Sierra Leoneans. The grant presentation was preceded by a COVID -19 sensitization sessions done by the campaign team. Part of the funds had come from a foundation established by Mrs Betty Samura Kamara, a medical professional and wife of Dr Samura Kamara.
Addressing beneficiaries, regional, district and constituency representatives of the APC party via electronic means; Dr. Samura said Sierra Leone and the APC party are on a “knife’s edge” and that only unity, determination and a strong sense of purpose could bring about meaningful change in the lives of people. He specifically called on the APC family in Tonkolili District to choose the path of reconciliation by working hard to bring back those members who felt marginalized from the party.*
Beneficiaries, Members of Parliament, District and Constituency Executives pledged their support for the candidacy of the Dr. Kamara and reiterated their desire for peace and reconciliation in the district.
