Secretary General Lansana Dumbuya has unequivocally stated that Chief Samsumana, despite being reinstated as a comrade, is not qualified to contest the 2028 elections as a candidate for the APC. This announcement has sent ripples through the political landscape, as Dumbuya emphasized the stringent adherence to the party’s constitution in determining eligibility for candidacy.
Dumbuya expressed his disbelief at the ongoing discourse suggesting Samsumana’s potential candidacy. “He stands in disbelief,” Dumbuya remarked, stressing that according to the APC constitution, Chief Samsumana does not meet the necessary criteria to run for the party in the upcoming 2028 elections. Dumbuya clarified that while Samsumana has been reinstated as a comrade within the party, this status does not automatically translate to eligibility for candidacy.
“The APC constitution is clear on this matter,” Dumbuya continued. “Chief Samsumana is reinstated as a comrade, but he is NEVER QUALIFIED to run under the APC ticket until 2033 if he is still alive.” This firm stance underscores the party’s commitment to upholding its constitutional provisions, irrespective of individual stature or past contributions.
The announcement comes amidst a backdrop of political maneuvering and speculation regarding the APC’s potential candidates for the 2028 elections. Chief Samsumana, a prominent figure in Sierra Leonean politics, served as Vice President from 2007 to 2015. His reinstatement as a comrade within the APC had sparked discussions about his possible return to the political forefront. However, Dumbuya’s declaration has effectively put an end to these speculations, at least for the 2028 electoral cycle.
The APC Secretary General’s statement reinforces the party’s dedication to constitutional integrity and transparency in its candidate selection process. As the political environment continues to evolve, the APC’s decision highlights the importance of adherence to established rules and regulations in maintaining party unity and credibility. Chief Samsumana’s political future now hangs in the balance, with his potential candidacy postponed until at least 2033, contingent on his continued involvement and eligibility within the party framework.
As the saying usually goes what goes around mostly come around trust either in shortly time of longer life times.
As the name implying that you are calling yourself Alhaji and putting yourself into suchlike challenges in political partizan issues behaving like you are a child with out parents blessings that is why your godly political party of APC members are treating you like the most stupid and uncurious himan been on earth.
As for me I don’t think that Sam haven’t seen any thing yet. Since the missing their assignments to killed him remember this time round they will not miss him right 👍
No Sam no so call APC 2028
With this of your regional politic you are preaching you will still continue to fall in the wicked hands of Bio govt.or any subsequent govt.by SLPP because APC will still continue to be an opposition if you did not considered Sam to be a flag bearer, constitutions are reliable to amendment , you are preparing to fail for 2028
No Sam28 no apc28
Go for your usual position vice president
Lansana is a day dreamer and if he continues to undermine the peace of mighty APC trust karma is coming pretty soon
What is wrong with the APC? If the APC want to go down the mud, let them continue sideling the southeast. Disregarding a political heavyweight from the southeast, the APC will continue to fall as prey to the SLPP.
The downfall of APC PARTY has started again
Through my observation, their is know strong person in APC to contest for 2028 presidential election rather than Sam Sumana.
And if the APC continue to behave so with this their sentiment, region and tribal politics be leaving you in me, they will loss again the 2028 election.
What are you guys saying here, in the event Samsumena died before 2028 the APC party will not have a potential candidate from the southeast. Come on, stop fooling yourselves in name of regional and tribal politics.
Sam falled the Kono people by leaving the c4c and he will continue to fall if he thinks apc will give him the chance of becoming a president of this country

APC is spilling blood on a white carpet
After all these years of suffering, they still want another bully.
APC please don’t eat much as you can’t afford.
It’s clear that you are looking for another fall.
HUMBLE REGARDS 💪🏽🙏🏽
I think Sam Sumana is the right person for this position or else am afraid
