Minister Kamara has been absent from work for several weeks due to health concerns and was flown to Ghana where he sought medical treatment. President Joseph Nyuma Boakai's economic advisors and senior cabinet members are reportedly advocating for a replacement due to the necessity of having a dynamic and energetic Finance Minister to drive the government's development agenda.
"The President has asked him to resign, though the Minister believes that he can carry on...but that is not convincing," he said."The President and the Minister have very high respect for each other so the discussion is being held with mutual respect, but I'm convinced that the President is firm on replacing him."
However, when Finance Minister Boima Kamara appeared before members of the House of Representatives last Tuesday, he was blunt about his health status -- disclosing to the lawmakers that he has been sick for weeks and has been seeking medical attention in Accra, Ghana. He apologetically told members of the House of Representatives that during three of the four citations he was seeking medication in Ghana but had to cut short his treatment to answer the call of the House's Plenary."I was not in the country when you were serving my office those citations. I was in Ghana seeking medical attention," Minister Kamara told the lawmakers.
the Finance Ministry categorically said, denying media reports that he is contemplating resignation owing to poor health or reported dissatisfaction and disappointment with the management team. "The minister and the National Investment Commission boss are not pleased with how the yellow machine saga is going. They are of the view that the right things were not just done and it places the government in an embarrassing position.
