The Sierra Leone Football Association’s (SLFA) Transition Committee (TC) has officially launched its functional review process, holding direct discussions with heads of key departments, including Finance, Administration, Competitions, and Media & Marketing.
The review, mandated by the Committee’s Terms of Reference, aims to assess the association’s structures and operations. TC Chairman, Dr. Isaac Massaquoi, underscored the importance of a “fair and thorough” process, cautioning staff against releasing information that could compromise the Committee’s work.
During the engagements, Governance Lead Sirajin Rollings-Kamara met with the Head of Competitions to discuss football administration, facilities, and logistics, noting that similar sessions would be held with other department heads.
Finance Lead George Moore stressed that the exercise was “not an audit” but a fact-finding process to establish a baseline of the SLFA’s income, projects, assets, liabilities, and obligations.
Meanwhile, HR Lead Aruna Mans Davies said the review sought to align the association’s operations with best practices, while Legal Lead Isha Bawoh Esq. emphasised her focus on ensuring compliance with the FA’s constitution, rules, and contracts, as well as addressing ethical concerns, including match-fixing.
The Committee is expected to continue its consultations in the coming weeks before issuing its findings.
