Internal Affairs Minister Gives Reason Why Guinea is Economically Ahead of Sierra Leone

September 8, 2025News

The Minister of Internal Affairs, Morie Lengoh Esq., has outlined reasons why Guinea appears to be ahead of Sierra Leone in economic performance.

In a recent interview, Minister Lengoh attributed Guinea’s relative economic advantage to its larger size, population, and abundant natural resources. “Guinea is one of the top mining countries in the region, with minerals that are highly sought after globally,” he said, noting that countries like China are increasingly investing in Guinea’s mining and infrastructure sectors. “This global demand has increased financial activity and investment in Guinea.”

According to the minister, Guinea’s land area is almost twice that of Sierra Leone, and it has a significantly larger population. These factors, he explained, naturally attract larger-scale investments and partnerships.
