Former Attorney General And Minister of Justice, Joseph Fitzgerald Kamara, has voiced deep concern over the recent incidents occurring across the country in the lead-up to the June 24th general election.
He has called upon the security forces to remain impartial and uphold professionalism in the execution of their duties.
Kamara has closely observed the preparations being made by the election management bodies for the forthcoming election and has become increasingly apprehensive about the prevailing situation.
In a statement, he expressed worry over the escalating acts of violence originating from various regions as the general elections draw nearer. Kamara emphasized that the nation is not prepared for anything that may disrupt the hard-earned peace.
“The surge in political violence has reached unprecedented levels. The country stands on the precipice, and we have already paid the heavy toll of war. We cannot afford to go down that path again! We implore the security forces to maintain their neutrality and professionalism in ensuring peace and stability. The government must prioritize representing the interests of the people over any particular political party. We are one nation,” Kamara declared.
His statement reflects the urgent need for all stakeholders, including the security forces and the government, to take immediate action to address the escalating violence and restore calm ahead of the crucial general election. Kamara’s plea underscores the importance of upholding the democratic principles of a peaceful and fair electoral process in order to preserve the unity and progress of the nation.
It is true that the police should be professional and that also you should have told the reckless APC members to conduct themselves as causers of all sorts of problems in the country.
Whiles cautioning the security forces to maintain neutrality we must also caution our unruly supporters not to put pressure on the security forces. Party supporters are the real cause of violence and the police atr called upon,they have the blame.
Do not blame APC because this party is an opposition not a ruling party. The worst the SLPP government did is the killing of civilians during protests. You think they don’t families that are sheding tears up to now? Passers by where also killed and arrest while some where killed in their homes but there was no justice done on them. The result of the so called investigations was just casting blames to the opposition but no one was arrested and made known to the public. Let us talk about humanity not politics.
WITH THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, POLITICS IS NEVER A WAR, BUT A GAME OF PERSONAL INTEREST.
I URGE ALL SIERRA LEONEAN TO PEACEFULLY OBSERVE TO THE PROTOCOLS FOLLOW BY THE ELECTION.
LEBRATE YOURSELF FROM ANY FORM OF VIOLENCE,, BECAUSE THE VERY PEOPLE WE ARE FIGHTING OURSELVES FOR, THEIR CHILDREN ARE NEVER WITH US IN THE COUNTY BY THIS CRUCIAL TIME , YET THE SENT THEM TO ONE OF THE BEST UNIVERSITIES IN THE WHITE LAND’S,,
HOWEVER, WE CAN PEACEFULLY GO AND VOTE OUT OR VOTE IN OUR CHOICE CANDIDATE WITH NO VIOLENCE,,
LET’S FORGET ABOUT DYNASTY,,, NEPOTISM, EGOISM, FAVOURISM OR NEITHER TRIBALISM, BECAUSE NEXT IS THE SIR WE BREATH. THEREFORE, I CALL ON ALL QUALIFED REGISTER VOTER’S TO RIGHTFULLY VOTE FOR A BETTER SIERRA LEONE NOT BY TRIBE OR REGION,,
REMEMBER,WE ARE ONE NATION.
