Since its establishment in 2001, the National Social Security and Insurance Trust (NASSIT) has transformed from an institution struggling to gain public trust into a model of effective leadership and service delivery in Sierra Leone.
At the time of its inception, many Sierra Leoneans were skeptical about entrusting their money to banks, let alone a new social security entity. However, 22 years later, NASSIT has defied the odds, emerging as a trusted institution that provides financial security to thousands, if not millions, of citizens.
This remarkable transformation did not happen overnight. It is the result of years of hard work, consistency, and commitment from a team of dedicated professionals under the leadership of Director General Mohamed Fuaad Daboh. Through his visionary guidance, NASSIT has strengthened the bond between the government and citizens, becoming Sierra Leone’s only functional social security system.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of DG Daboh and his team, NASSIT’s impact is now felt nationwide. It has earned a place among Africa’s leading social security institutions, setting a benchmark for financial security and social protection.
Social security plays a crucial role in ensuring economic stability, and NASSIT has cemented itself as a pillar of support for Sierra Leoneans. Its ever-growing membership is a testament to the trust and confidence it has gained over the years.
As NASSIT continues to expand its reach, it remains committed to its mission—providing financial security and essential social protection to all citizens in need. This success is not just a milestone for NASSIT but a significant achievement for Sierra Leone as a whole.
