The purpose of the visit was to keep the Consul abreast with ongoing development activities in the country, thus enabling him (the Consul) to woo investors and further improve the bilateral relationship between Germany and Sierra Leone.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While in Freetown, the Ambassador and Dr. Scheiter held fruitful discussions with government ministers among which include Foreign Affairs, Trade, Agriculture, Tourism, and the Director of Sierra Leone Investment and Export Promotion Agency (SLIEPA). Issues regarding investment opportunities and the socio- economic development of the country were the main focus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Though it was his first time to visit Sierra Leone, Dr. Scheiter was moved by the tremendous achievements made in the country so far, and described the hospitality given to him as exemplary. He further assured his commitment to work assiduously in an effort to promote the country\u2019s interest in Germany.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Umaru S.
