Speaker after speaker, including Documentation Manager – Darell Coker, SALS Manager – Jonathan Lewis, Country Chief Finance Officer – Maimouna Drame, expressed nice sentiments about the departing hero, who has left an indelible footprint at the Freetown Terminal Limited.
Other staff like the Country Human Resource Manager – Claudia Morgan and Finance Manager all have positive stories to tell about the quality leadership provided by Captain Kokan. “He is a man of his words. He is caring, disciplined, a great mentor, and a mixer who does not discriminate against people,” they said and added that he will be sadly missed by the workforce.
The newly appointed Country Manager of Bollore Transport and Logistics, Bertrand Kerguelen was full of praises for his predecessor, adding that he enjoyed working with him and had learned a lot from Captain Kokan. He assured his team that he is willing to continue with the development left by Captain Kokan and admonished his workers to do their best for the good of the company and country.
Addressing his audience, Captain Kokan said although he is going to work next-door, Guinea, his eyes and heart will always be in Sierra Leone, a country he has enjoyed serving for seven years, and furthered that he enjoyed working with a committed and dedicated team throughout these years. He added that he worked under challenging moments like, during the Ebola Outbreak and the COVID-19 pandemic, the company has never ceased operations during these trying moments.
Captain Kokan assured that the company is always willing to serve Sierra Leone even after he must have left. He thanked his management and staff for giving him the support over the years and admonished them to continue serving his successor.
