The Tonkolili District Chairman of Sierra Leone’s opposition All People’s Congress APC), Dr. Samuel Bangura has during the official launching of the party forthcoming registration and verification in the Northern city of Makeni endorsed the process calling it legal, timely and a positive move towards the party’s victory and success.

The leadership of the party met at the regional headquarters on Saturday 10th August 2024 to launch the registration and verification process that will soon commence at District level.

Addressing party stakeholders and members, Dr Bangura called on all to cooperate with the leadership for a successful registration and verification. The party, he said is currently faced with a plethora of challenges and wranglings, but the Chairman warned his comrades not to allow those impasses to deter the registration and verification process.

This is because, Dr Bangura said registration is not only every organization’s criteria, but it also raises funds for the sustainability of any organization. Currently, the determination of every APC party member, the erudite politician said must be to move ahead and to ensure the party wins the next election and goes back to the State House. The party, he said has structures and a legitimate leadership and members must make sure they respect those structures that bind the party together.

“And one of the structures of the APC party is registration,” he said.

It’s therefore important for everyone to cooperate with the leadership, the Chairman added.

“How would you take part in any of the party’s electoral process if you’re not legally registered? It’s only when you are a registered member of the party that you can vote and be voted for,” Dr Bangura warned party members.

For the APC membership in Tonkolili District, the Chairman has endorsed the process because it’s legal and a positive move towards victory. The entire membership, he emphasizes will cooperate with the leadership of the party to ensure the registration process is successful. As the District Chairman, Dr Bangura said he would ensure all Constituency Chairpersons and other Executive members cooperate throughout the process.
