Official wording
"A citizen of the Community" means a citizen of any Member States … A citizen of the Community visiting any Member State for a period not exceeding ninety (90) days shall enter the territory of that Member State through the official entry point free of visa requirements.
Aevamo’s reading
The Non-Citizens (Registration, Immigration and Expulsion) Act 1965 is the statute enacted by the Parliament of Sierra Leone that creates the entry and visa obligation for non-citizens: section 19(2)(f)(ii) requires a visa in the passport of any non-citizen who is not a privileged African, a Commonwealth citizen or a declared-exempt national. The ECOWAS protocol, the SLID visa-on-arrival page and the eVisa terms implement or modify that statutory obligation by nationality class; none of them creates the underlying requirement that a non-citizen needs permission to enter, which is what makes the Act the controlling instrument.
Protocol A/P.1/5/79 Article 1 defines the class 'a citizen of the Community' as a citizen of any Member State, and Article 3(2) grants that class entry free of visa requirements for up to 90 days; the 14 issuers on this row are the ECOWAS member states other than Sierra Leone, each verified against the Community's membership.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
