Abstract

Following the dawning of democracy in Guinea-Conakry, wide-ranging transformations have occurred in many sectors of the Guinean society. While many positive transformations have occurred in the current dispensation; however, the assurance of democracy has not been positively engaged. The aspiration for cultural collectivity and confide in the government method seems to be abstract to which many are still endeavoring. The historic devastation in the Guinean economy and the turbulent nature of the country’s politics since the year 2020-2021 triggered a massive exodus that swelled the Kambia District population, particularly in Northern Sierra Leone. The influx of Susu-Guineans in the Kambia District, Northern Sierra Leone, triggered cultural diversity challenges. These involved social cohesion and assimilation. Though some academics have scanned the impact of immigration on social cohesion and assimilation in the current society, little is known about how Susu-Guineans established in many sectors of the Kambia District, Northern Sierra Leone. Neither is there an obvious, scientifically composed acknowledgement of the character of affinity with relatives and acquaintances who endured in Guinea-Conakry. This paper explores to bond the gap in scholarship in Kambia District, Northern Sierra Leone. Semi-structured interview models were utilized in an exploratory path to facilitate conversations with a judgmental sample of thirty-six folks who left Guinea for Sierra Leone. Thematic content analysis was utilized to analyze the data. Cultural diversity brought about lofty thresholds of uncertainty or skepticism with their neighbors, verbal and physical xenophobic aggressions, identity crisis, general family disorientation and disintegration were convened as some of the repercussions of the compulsory migration into Kambia District, Northern Sierra Leone. Most of the respondents delivered a stout ambition to return home once the political and economic conditions revised.
