The Sierra Leone Association of Journalists (SLAJ) on Friday, July 11, 2025, honoured Jeety Group of Companies with a prestigious Certificate of Appreciation for its consistent support to the journalism profession and media development in Sierra Leone. The recognition was presented during the official handing-over ceremony between SLAJ’s outgoing and incoming Presidents at the Bintumani Hotel, Aberdeen in Freetown.
Jeety Trading Company, a key subsidiary of the Jeety Group operating in Sierra Leone, was singled out for its ongoing partnership with SLAJ and its demonstrated commitment to promoting Press Freedom and responsible journalism.
Receiving the award on behalf of the company, Tarwinder Singh, a senior representative of Jeety Trading Company, conveyed the company’s heartfelt gratitude and humility. He said the entire Jeety team was honoured to receive the recognition, which he described as a significant encouragement to continue their work in supporting the media and national development.
Tarwinder Singh expressed thanks to the leadership of SLAJ, especially Ex-President Ahmed Sahid Nasralla for acknowledging their efforts. He noted that although their CEO, Mr. S. Mohinder Bir Singh Sachdeva, widely known as Pa Jeety, is currently out of the country, he was deeply touched by the gesture and extended his appreciation.
He further highlighted Pa Jetty’s strong belief in the vital role of a free and vibrant media in building a democratic and accountable society. He said the award reaffirmed their commitment to supporting journalism and deepening their partnership with SLAJ in the interest of community progress.
Tarwinder Singh concluded by reiterating the company’s readiness to maintain and strengthen its relationship with SLAJ, adding that the recognition would serve as motivation to continue contributing meaningfully to the growth and development of Sierra Leone.
Jeety Group of Companies, under the leadership of Pa Jeety, has become a household name in Sierra Leone for its philanthropic work, humanitarian gestures and strong support for national development efforts ranging from education and healthcare to food support and media engagement.
With SLAJ embracing a new chapter of leadership, the Association’s recognition of Jeety Trading Company stands as a testament to the value of collaboration in building a transparent and accountable society. https://thecalabashnewspaper.com/jeety-trading-company-honoured-by-slaj-for-outstanding-support-to-the-media/
