The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has detained three senior officials of the Sierra Leone Football Association (SLFA) over allegations of financial impropriety. Those taken into custody include SLFA President Thomas Daddy Brima, Acting General Secretary Benson Bawoh, and Financial Officer Ibrahim Bah, according to sources within the ACC.
The arrests come just days before the SLFA’s Ordinary Congress, scheduled for Saturday. The ACC has assured the public and media that further details regarding the investigation will be disclosed in due course.
This development marks a significant moment for Sierra Leone’s football governance, as the ACC continues its efforts to address corruption and promote accountability within the nation’s institutions. The football community and the public await updates on the investigation and its potential implications for the SLFA’s leadership and operations.
