Councillor Murana Fobbie, a prominent member of the Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP) and representative for Ward 345 in Kori Chiefdom, Moyamba District, has expressed feelings of neglect and abandonment by his party as he battles illness.
Over the weekend, Fobbie called upon SLPP members at all levels—local, national, and international—to come to his aid during this challenging time.
Recognized for his dedication and awarded the title of best councillor during his first term, Fobbie has been instrumental in delivering numerous projects that have benefited both his ward and the wider Moyamba District. However, since the start of his second term, he has faced significant hardships.
Since falling ill shortly after the June 2023 elections, Fobbie has received support from Youth Minister Mr. Mohamed O. Bangura, yet he feels that many of his party members have turned their backs on him. “I feel totally abandoned and neglected,” he lamented, highlighting the emotional toll of his situation.
Councillor Fobbie’s heartfelt plea serves as a reminder of the importance of community and solidarity within political circles. He is now reaching out to Sierra Leoneans, particularly his fellow SLPP members, urging them to remember his contributions to the party and to extend their support in his time of need.

Always learn to invest big time in your family members when you’re in power because they are the only ones who will not abandon you when you are sick. The councillor’s political colleagues who have abandoned him might even pray for his death for another vacancy to exist. This is a very good lesson to politicians who overlook their family members when fortune smiles on them.
May Allah restores his health insha’Allah. He has learnt his lessons that politicians are not trustworthy.
It’s really an unfortunate event seeing a very serviceable gentle man in pains as his condition get worsen. However, the Fobbie family members should be seeing taking a lead in this circumference rather than apportioning blame on the party structure.
He and his family should have been lucky enough to be a councilor on the party’s ticket, yet other people equally would have qualified for the same position and perform as per expectations . The party hierarchy, if desired could do any help in their own way, but not imperative.
Wait a minute, is it incumbent upon the party to care for every sick member? This is ludicrous.
Hey Allah, you guys will suffer more than this, just wait a little bit….
May Allah cure him 🙏
