Another reason why this effort is laudable is that a necessary condition for ensuring the sustainable management of Sierra Leonean fisheries, or of any country for that matter, is securing a minimum amount of scientific information about the resources exploited by the fisheries. This report contributes to this by retrieving what would have been lost information on Sierra Leonean fishery resources. What Africans, and Sierra Leonean in particular had not counted on is that independence did not guarantee access to these natural resources - indeed the competition for those resources continues still, and as far as fisheries resources are concerned, it is largely the EU, and increasing China, which wins, and not Sierra Leone. The contribution in this Fisheries Centre Research Report partly explains why Sierra Leone is losing out, and provides information that would support various initiatives currently being undertaken in Africa to recapture access to the resources for the people. A recent effort by the African Confederation of Artisanal Fishing Organizations (CAOPA) is a good example of such new initiative. Recently, CAOPA voiced its demands to FAO and its members, which included the need to (i) document better the impacts of the various types of exploitation of small pelagic fishes on food security; (ii) recommend to states and regional fisheries organizations to consider the role of small pelagic fishes in the ecosystems and in food security of developing countries’ populations when they are to make decisions for managing these resources, and allocating access to them; (iii) support initiatives and efforts that will contribute to establishing a concerted management of small pelagic resources in West Africa; (iv) support efforts by fishing communities to actively contribute to the management of these resources in a concerted and sustainable way; and (v) support an aquaculture based on species that do not require feed made from wild fish, that answers to the demands of local and regional markets, and that is not contributing to the unsustainable exploitation of small pelagic stocks. Thus: there is a path out of the present arrangements, and it would benefit most people. Ussif Rashid Sumaila, Director UBC Fisheries Centre August 2012 10 11 EDITORS ’ P REFACE A delay of 20 years in publishing the proceeding of a conference does require an explanation - it is not enough to just call them ‘belated’. The Manila-based International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management (ICLARM, now WorldFish Centre, based in Penang, Malaysia) initiated in 1991 a 4-year partnerships with Sierra Leone’s Institute of Marine Biology and Oceanography (IMBO), i.e., the “ Research Cooperation between IMBO and ICLARM on the Establishment of a Fishery Database for the Development and Management of the National Fisheries of Sierra Leone ”, which one of the editors (JMV) was to run, and another (DP) to supervise. The project was initially very successful and produced what it was supposed to do in terms of the database that was compiled 1, actionable insights gained 2,3,4,5 , and even personnel trained at Master 6 and PhD 7 level. However, such projects could not alter WKHSROLWLFDODQGPDWHULDOVLWXDWLRQLQ6LHUUD/HRQHZKLFKVORZO\WKHQUDSLGO\GHWHULRUDWHG¿QDOO\IRUFLQJWKHSURMHFWOHDGHU and his family to leave the country, after various attempts to cope 8. The conference “ National Seminar for Fishery Industries ” of which we present here the belated proceeding was held 25-29 November 1991 in Freetown, Sierra Leone, under the sponsorship of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United 1DWLRQV )$2 3DUWLFLSDQWV LQFOXGHG UHSUHVHQWDWLYHV RI DOO LQWHUHVW JURXSV LQ WKH ¿VKHULHV VHFWRU *RYHUQPHQW SXEOLF LQVWLWXWLRQVXQLYHUVLW\¿VKLQJFRPSDQLHV¿VKLQJFRPPXQLWLHVDQGGRQRUV+RZHYHULQVWHDGRIEHFRPLQJWKHVWDUWLQJSRLQW for a new push towards more rational exploitation of the marine resources, the conference saw its results relegated to oblivion, as it coincided with Sierra Leone’s agonizing ascent into a series of military coups and counter-coups, a situation which reached its nadir in 1999, when armed gangsters ruled in Freetown, maiming and killing people.

She accepted, and in her search for historic data, Katy stumbled on manuscripts of the 1991 conference. Realizing that much of the data within the documents had been lost in their original form, and that information was not available in published reports, she asked why the proceedings had never been published….

Twenty-four cross bred weaner (8 weeks old) rabbits comprising twelve each of bucks and does were randomly allocated according to sex and feed supplement (conventional anticoccidia drug and garlic) in a 2x2 factorial arrangement. Data were collected on growth performance, faecal microbial population and carcass yield and analysed using ANOVA. Result showed that neither sex nor feed supplement had significant (P>0.05) effect on the growth performance of weaner rabbits. Coccidial load was progressively and completely eliminated in bucks and does from the baseline population of 1680epg and 600epg, respectively with rabbits fed diet supplemented with garlic. Also, does fed diet supplemented with commercial coccidiostat had complete coccidial load elimination from 5200epg at 8th week to the 16th week. Helminthic load (3800epg) recorded with bucks fed diet supplemented with garlic at the beginning of study were totally eliminated at the end of the study (56d).

The concentrations of Zn (0.10-0.36 mg/kg), Cu (0.18-0.27 mg/kg), Ni (BDL-0.01 mg/kg) and Cr (0.04-0.63 mg/kg) found in the water samples were within the Maximum Permissible Level (MPL), while higher concentrations above the MPL were recorded for Cd (0.08-0.19 mg/kg) and Pb (0.34-0.79 mg/kg). Zn was the most abundant heavy metals found in all fish species organs investigated. Higher concentrations of the metals were recorded in the gills and eyes compared to other organs in most of the fish species. While the concentration of Zn (0.28 mg/ kg-4.14 mg/kg), Cu (BDL-5.72 mg/kg), Ni (BDL-0.01 mg/kg), and Cr (BDL-3.41) in the fish tissues were within the Maximum Allowable Level (MAL) for a food source, the findings of this study Cd (BDL-3.18 mg/kg) and Pd (BDL-1.14 mg/kg) showed values exceeding the maximum allowable level, thus constituting potential health hazard to consumers of these fish species.

    The Chiefdoms of Sierra Leone Tristan Reed1 James A.

Abstract1 In this manuscript, a companion to Acemoglu, Reed and Robinson (2013), we provide a detailed history of Paramount Chieftaincies of Sierra Leone. British colonialism transformed society in the country in 1896 by empowering a set of Paramount Chiefs as the sole authority of local government in the newly created Sierra Leone Protectorate. Only individuals from the designated \ruling families" of a chieftaincy are eligible to become Paramount Chiefs. In 2011, we conducted a survey in of \encyclopedias" (the name given in Sierra Leone to elders who preserve the oral history of the chieftaincy) and the elders in all of the ruling families of all 149 chieftaincies. Contemporary chiefs are current up to May 2011. We used the survey to re- construct the history of the chieftaincy, and each family for as far back as our informants could recall. We then used archives of the Sierra Leone National Archive at Fourah Bay College, as well as Provincial Secretary archives in Kenema, the National Archives in London and available secondary sources to cross-check the results of our survey whenever possible. We are the first to our knowledge to have constructed a comprehensive history of the chieftaincy in Sierra Leone. 1Oral history surveys were conducted by Mohammed C. Bah, Alimamy Bangura, Alieu K.

Sesay 1 ©- Sierra Leone Year Report 2017- INTRODUCTION This is the report of the activities, initiatives and the most interesting bird species that have been recorded in 2017 by myself or by others. The idea of this 39p. birding report - a first of its kind !- is : to give a global image of what has been seen and done in Sierra Leone in 2017; to hopefully open the way to new birding initiatives and field projects. The 2017 birding data have been collected from various internet platforms and sources as well as through contacting people. As a consequence, certain information is most probably missing. The enclosed annotated birdlist gives a fairly good snapshot of last year's available data. It also means you are definitely part of this year report initiative. So please, do contact us : for any further information or help; for giving us datas and feedbacks about your experience and any interesting birding records made around the country. Whatever the way you choose for birding Sierra Leone a lot is still to be done there. It is no terra incognita but for some tricky species, there still is no really reliable site in the country. I hope this first of his kind year report in this - magnificent and safe (!) - country of Sierra Leone will motivate more birdwatchers to come ! Best regards, Momoh B.
