Sierra Leone’s Main Opposition APC Issues 6 Months Ultimatum to Government

Sierra Leone’s main opposition, All People’s Congress (APC) has issued a 6 months ultimatum to the Government over demands raised after the 2023 multitier election.

APC disputed results announced by the Electoral Commission for Sierra Leone (ECSL) citing that they failed to release results by polling centres.

The main opposition party released a dossier signed by members of parliament and other senior members planning a boycott of government and governance.

Recently, speaking on Voice of America (VOA), the APC Deputy National Secretary General Osman Abdal Timbo said the denial of their request by the ECSL is a sign that the elections were not fair and credible.

Exclusive Newspaper also reported that Timbo said they have informed the Government that elections be conducted in the next 6 months because they believed the numbers are cooked.

The ECSL declared the incumbent Julius Maada Bio of the Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP) as winner of the presidential election after securing 57 percent of total valid votes.

The APC could have challenged the results in court within six days but they refused despite one of their members advising them to take the legal route.

Their Deputy National Secretary General said the country’s Judiciary is biased towards their party citing that most of their cases have not been treated justly.

You the APC politician do not love our country but all this you are doing is for your own selfish interest and not for MAMA SALONE and the people of this country Is this the first time elections in this country have been conducted and come out of this same kind circumstances or is Sierra Leone is the only country that has conducted elections and the outcomes of the result is not what majority expect but others they let go for the love of their nation because they put country first but not politics So please give peace a chance

Please don't fall for this trick, this is how they want to courage their gullible supporters. If by any means means they try any nonsense in this country like coup there they will believe that "A school master was once a school boy" and president Bio from the military, a Brigedier for that matter is not as exemption from that saying

APC fools are disabled with symptoms of epilepsy. They are already buried in shame and disgrace. Can you go back and recallect from your evil actions in all the past multi- tier elections conducted by Christiana Thurpe and judge yourself. Thieves always accused the innocent because they dwell in their evil behaviour instead of repenting. Samura Pharaoh, your time is up, trust me ,you are not a true believer of our Lord Jesus Christ but a devil incarnation. You will know no peace including your Co partners to your million generations in Jesus mighty name l have Prayed. Amen and Amen. How long have you suffered the children of Sierra Leone and still boasting in your wickedness? Most Sierra Leoneans don't want to imitate the characters of Pharaoh and Golaith like APC such as you and your group because of the fear of God and the love of our Country and the people of Sierra Leone. However, if you continue to wage war upon the people, your doom day is nearing with God's wrath. I advised you to repent for the numerous blood shed you have caused in the past till now, before and ever after APC took power by hooked or crooked but never genuinely. Boldly l asked, did you or ECSL show elecrtion results individually by polling Stations for the past decades? You have tormented our President Julius Maada Bio since he took power in 2018 forgetting that you are fighting against God not him and the people. This time around you can't escape it. Dig your grave and prepare for your own funeral services you have plotted against yourself and APC. I hate wickedness just like our God. He created the world and not man. He has no rival, no equal. Be worn. A message you cannot take for granted. Samura devil bai Koroma and evil conspirators.

Yes at list we the poor people of Sierra leone deserves some peace and harmony in loving mama salone

Dr. Samura, Country first. If only it is for the citizen of this country, please, let peace reign. 5 years is 60 months ‘Na sleep n wake’. SLPP cannot be in power forever. If you are saying there should be a re-run of the 2023 multi tier election, the country will go 5 years backward and we the citizens will continue to suffer and suffer the most not the greedy politicians who can take their family members out the country if there be any chaos.

Timbo i voted for you to represent us in parliament, because you told us that you need the platform when speaking on AYV television.I voted for President Bio because i trust him. But today i regret voting for Timbo, please stop contradicting your self try to be patriotic.

Mr Timbo the six months ultimatum is too far we humbly request you and the whole of the executive to shorten the time for your supporters to a month because your deceiptive action is slowing killing them.
