The Bumbuna hydroelectric dam project is seen in this October 20, 2007 file photo. Sierra Leone's new president visited Bumbuna, the country's largest and long-delayed hydroelectric dam project in his first official trip beyond the capital since he was elected. President Ernest Bai Koroma, leader of the All People’s Congress (APC), has pledged to make delivering electricity to the country, which is largely without light and relies on small private generators for power, his number one priority.
