👆🏾Listen to the VOS Politics and Economics show, dated January 15, 2025

Welcome to SIERRA LEONE POLITICS AND ECONONOMICS on Voice of Salone (VOS) — your trusted platform for in-depth, people-centered analysis of the forces shaping Sierra Leone today.

In this January 15, 2026, edition, we unpack a series of explosive and far-reaching developments:

• The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Timothy Musa Kabba, confirms U.S. negotiations requesting Sierra Leone to accept third-party nationals in exchange for easing full U.S. visa restrictions — with government signaling acceptance only for West African nationals under refugee law, while 52 Sierra Leoneans remain in U.S. ICE detention awaiting deportation.

• Sierra Leone’s bold push for African mineral sovereignty at the 2026 Future Minerals Forum, amid rising global competition for strategic resources.

• Shocking revelations of illegal gold and diamond mining allegedly involving a Chinese company in Kenema, raising serious environmental, governance, and sovereignty concerns.

• Explosive allegations by Sylvia Blyden linking Ernest Bai Koroma to the November 2023 coup attempt, reigniting national debate and political tensions.

• Reports of over 300 barrels of expired alcohol allegedly discovered at Kadco’s warehouse in Freetown, raising urgent questions about public safety, regulatory failure, and accountability.

This episode connects foreign policy, migration, mineral politics, national security, and economic governance, placing Sierra Leone’s challenges in a broader West African and global context.
