Late Momoh Konteh’s Family under Pressure.
The family of the late Momoh Konteh — former Director General of the National Telecommunications Commission (NATCOM) now NatCA and a respected businessman long before his public appointment — is reportedly facing increasing pressure over the ownership and control of his properties, raising growing concerns about the well-being of his elderly mother.
According to family sources, immediately after the death of Mr. Konteh, individuals began making aggressive moves to seize his properties. His Hill Court residence was reportedly taken over, and attempts are now allegedly being made to remove his aged mother from the second residence where she currently lives.
The situation has caused significant emotional distress, particularly for the elderly woman who depends heavily on the home for safety and stability. Residents familiar with the matter say she has been repeatedly harassed by individuals claiming authority to take possession of the property, creating fear and uncertainty within the family.
Many who knew the late Momoh Konteh describe him as a humble, generous, and widely respected man who maintained friendly relationships across political lines — welcoming to both APC and SLPP supporters alike. His sudden passing left a void not only in his family, but also among colleagues, friends, and communities that benefited from his kindness.
As pressure mounts, the family is appealing directly to President Julius Maada Bio to intervene and ensure justice, fairness, and humane treatment for the grieving household. They urge the President to look into the matter and protect the rights of the elderly mother, whose only desire is to live peacefully in the home left behind by her son.
Supporters and community members are also calling on relevant state institutions — including the Ministry of Lands, the Police, and legal authorities — to thoroughly investigate the circumstances surrounding the attempted seizures and provide urgent protection to the vulnerable family.
At a time when the nation strives toward unity, justice, and respect for human dignity, many believe this case deserves compassionate attention from the highest levels of leadership.
The Konteh family continues to hope for swift intervention that will restore peace and allow the legacy of the late Momoh Konteh to be remembered with honor, rather than overshadowed by controversy and intimidation.
