Roy Global Limited Signs Landmark Agreement With SLLCA

On March 3, 2026, the Sierra Leone Local Content Agency (SLCA) signed a landmark compliance agreement with CTC Mining Company and Roy Global Limited, marking a historic milestone in the implementation of the Local Content Act of 2016. The ceremony, held at the Agency’s conference hall, underscored Sierra Leone’s commitment to embedding local talent, businesses, and institutions into the mining sector’s value chain.
In his opening statement, Director-General Mr. Fodeba Daboh emphasized that the signing was not only a statutory obligation under Section 58(1) of the Act but also a bold step toward operationalizing Sierra Leone’s vision of inclusive economic growth. He stressed that the agreement formalizes commitments in workforce development, procurement, technology transfer, and broader economic contributions, ensuring that Sierra Leoneans are meaningfully integrated into the nation’s industrial progress.
Mr. Daboh reiterated that mega contracts must not bypass Sierra Leonean vendors, and that qualified, trained, and capacitated locals deserve first consideration in employment, contracts, and procurement. He emphasized that the agreement provides a structural framework for planning, implementing, and reporting on local content obligations, aligning company initiatives with national priorities while establishing a transparent and enforceable roadmap for measurable outcomes.
