The Member of Parliament representing Constituency three in the Kissi Teng and Kissi Kama Chiefdoms in the Kailahun District says there are negative developments in the Guinean occupied Yenga border area.
Yenga which is in the Kissi Teng Chiefdom is one of the border towns between Sierra Leone and Guinea. Honorable Tamba Musa Sam told CTN that Guinean civil authorities had visited and ordered residents of four villages around Yenga to be paying taxes to the Guinean authorities. Honorable Musa Sam said such a move taken by the Guinean authorities would worsen the situation for Sierra Leoneans in Yenga. The latest development in Yenga followed a recent visit by members of the Parliamentary Defense committee to the occupied border town. The parliamentarians are yet to present and discuss their findings to parliament.
