NRA Dismisses Senior Manager

The National Revenue Authority (NRA) has announced the dismissal of Mr. Abu Kamara, a senior official, who previously served as Manager in the Finance and Budget Department, over his failure to cooperate with an official investigation into suspected tax diversion.

According to a public notice issued by the NRA’s Public Affairs and Tax Education Unit, Mr. Kamara was implicated in a scheme involving the diversion of taxes and duties paid at the Customs Services Department (CSD), and is suspected of colluding with bank employees and other “unpatriotic citizens.”

The NRA stated that Mr. Kamara ignored multiple requests from the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) to assist with the inquiry, and failed to make any official contact with the Authority for twelve working days, a breach of Article 10.4 of the revised NRA Terms and Conditions of Service (TACOS). His employment was officially terminated with effect from 24th June 2025.

The Authority has urged all public and private institutions to refrain from conducting any official business with Mr. Kamara, warning that any such engagement would be unauthorised and unrecognised by the NRA.

The statement concluded with a reaffirmation of the NRA’s commitment to integrity, transparency, and public accountability, noting that it would continue to work closely with the CID on the next steps in the investigation.
