Agriculture - Sierra Leone

The West Africa Agriculture Productivity Programme (WAAPP) Sierra Leone has been rated “satisfactory” by the World Bank at a regional wrap up summit in Ghana.
This is the highest rating in the score sheet of the World Bank with regards the implementation of WAAPP at the country level. The rating is pegged at the achievement of key deliverables set by the Bank, the project and its partners in the previous country support mission which is held half yearly.

Members of the national committee for the West Africa Power Pool (WAPP) Project to be implemented by TRANSCO Energy discussed the state of implementation of the project.
Held at its Freetown, Headquarter along Sir Samuel Lewis road, members of the national monitoring committee met to discuss major recommendations from the last session held in December, regarding the WAPP project.

According to the TRANSCO CLSG, Environmental Coordinator, Pakidame Kolani, TRANSCO together with the national monitoring committee will follow all protocols on environmental impact before, during and after the completion of the four Mano River Countries, interconnectivity energy transmission network.

As the first phase of the final country implementation programme of the West Africa Productivity Programme (WAAPP) comes to an end, a team from the organisation together has undertaken a visit to their implementing partners.

The team also comprises the Word Bank Implementation Support Mission (ISM) undertaken by the World Bank, Government of Sierra Leone and key implementing partners of the project to appraise milestones achieved as against set benchmarks in the previous ISM.
