In a press briefing held on Thursday, June 6th, the Minister of Information and Communication Mohamed Rahman Swaray expressed his disappointment and labeled it a “betrayal of trust” if the All Peoples Congress Party (APC) follows through with its decision to boycott participation in the country’s governance in 2023.
The minister addressed stakeholders and journalists at the Ministry’s Conference room in Freetown, highlighting the potential consequences of the party’s actions.
During the briefing, Minister Swarray emphasized the significance of the APC’s role as an opposition party and stressed that their participation in governance is crucial for the proper functioning of democracy.
Referring to the voters who placed their trust in the APC during the previous elections, he asserted, “Those people you mentioned, the APC, who have indicated the wish to boycott the various levels of governance and the service they have been voted for in various positions ranging from President to local council, will be a big betrayal to their voters.”
The minister expressed his hope that the APC would reconsider their decision, given the implications it could have on the citizens who supported and voted for the party.
He further underscored the importance of fulfilling the mandate entrusted to them by the people, stating, “It is my hope that the APC reconsider those various positions because it will be a big betrayal of trust to their people who voted for them.”
There’s nothing like betrayal here, they’ve taken the right decision
Lef am nor mor
When you’re trying to cripple democracy then u blamed their thoughts.
This is hypocrite
THE APC CAN ONLY PARTICIPATE IN A LEGITIMATE GOVERNMENT
Mahmud Kamara it’s okay for themselves Let’s them take everything
APC need legitimate government to participate not Illegitimate government like BIO’S GOVERNMENT
This decision is not a good decision they just want to create problem this another 5 years you don’t want to give a chance to the people to serve the country
Why are u guys worry of their participation?
So you guys aware of the negatives effect as they have decided of not participating on your Governance 😀😀
Na Una want for govern at all cost but una don begin complain 😀😀
He has envisioned the pitfall on them if that decision stands.
If a party decided not to participate in any governance, that’s according to the decision of it supporters I don’t see as any betrayal. We are ok with the decision taken by our party
I do believe that the decision taking by APC lead to freedom of speech, movement and right and responsibility to our options The present governance are in hast thou art to work let them continue with their krukujumuku
As a supporter we’re ok with the decision no cause to complain 😞
We have one party illegitimate state now
Swaray why are u stress yourself for the decision the APC took, we the voters are ok with the APC decision, anyone who attempt to betrayed the APC decision, that individual will regret why he exist on planet earth.
Onlees and untill the demands of APC are fulfill.
Very soon your illegitimate president and his illegitimate government will face the reality of their crimes internationally.
Traka ear 👂 fly na ihn en de die man den dae buried together.
This nonsense will never repeat again in any part in the world. When you loose elections you have to go with peace if you choose peace but if you choose danger and disgrace before you exist power it will meet you.
Their boycottment doesn’t stop the
opproration of the government to execute their duties at all it is their own dentrument.
Let’s start the democracy with our right to vote. We were delayed and a good number of people did not vote.
We the people of Sierra Leone we be very glad for the APC decision,because this guys are not good for this nation I hope those guys should stand on their words lonter.
Astonishing to here from this heartbreaking and heartless psychopath blowing hot air. Man from the moon, are you really devoid of common sense.
You seriously think rogue Bio is the real sitting and substantive president of Sierra Leone, ooh no, he is not.
Points of Corrections On the contrary to your empty rhetorics & baseless speculative statements, Dr. Samura Wilson kamara is the only legitimate, elected leader, and substantive president of Sierra Leone.
Your unfortunate statement, is just last kick of dysfunctional & defunct dying horse. So tread carefully mr. Rahman. We stand & respected all those that voted Dr. Samura kamara to office.
All just a matter of time. You will see your nonsense very soon.
Na lie dae pan you. Who cares if apc back out? Open space for permanent opposition that will be. An underdeveloped country will never afford to do elections twice simply because an opposition disagrees so it’s a dream that will never come true na dis poo country beside people are not idle to consider another election such waist of time and energy. They will come to terms trust me and all those talking will know that politics is not a child’s play.
It is good for them to just stay quiet we dont want problems here apc give chance to this visionery leader to work
Hummm. Indeed Sierra Leoneans are becoming wiser and aware. Silence can still speak the will of the people. Sierra Leoneans continue to be cool and calm citizen and let those in ruling continue to rule.
Oh Sa. Lone people when will your eyes be opened. Who is going to unseat Bio’s government? You are in a dreamland. Is it only APC who should rule this country? Una pa’s mark o.
