Addressing 13 new Ministers who took the oath of Office before him at State House yesterday the President Ernest Bai Koroma strongly cautioned them that if any of them did not meet his expectations after three months he or she will be sacked.
Congratulating and admonishing the 13 ministers, President Ernest Koroma said “I have appointed you to join me in leading Sierra Leone in a new direction”
A direction he said “in which you will be required not to lord over people but to serve the people of this great nation.”
 In this new direction he disclosed, “my tenets are accountability and transparency” adding “I expect ministers of government to show high a level of transparency and accountability,” whilst also urging them “to live by example.”
“We all know that the situation is so desperate our social indicators are not good the economic performance is nothing to write home about” he said, but “these are the challenges and the people out there are expecting miracles to happen”.
 Therefore he said “I expect all of you to be results oriented. I have promised the nation that I will run the government like a business concern and results should be our focus.”
 In his appreciation on behalf of the appointed Ministers, Dauda Kamara Minister of local government and community development assured the President that they will fulfill their work.
He promised that they will not disappoint the President and the people as they are ready and willing to work for the country.
