"Democracy is Clearly Under Threat in Sierra Leone"

“Democracy is Clearly Under Threat in Sierra Leone” – Dr. Richard Konteh

Dr. Richard konteh, one of the strong members of the main opposition-All Peoples Congress (APC) Party and a flag bear aspirant for the 2023 presidential elections has referred to Sierra Leone’s democracy being under a serious threat from and by certain individuals.

In a statement, Konteh stated He received the news about the award of the MCC Compact to Sierra Leone with mixed feelings.

“While we will always wish the best for our country, including the MCC Compact award, which Dr. Richard Konteh worked on as Chief of Staff, we detest this apparent attempt to reward bad behaviour”

He maintained that, the Agreement for National Unity is yet to be fully implemented, and a range of bottlenecks stand in the way of the successful completion of the report of the Tripartite Committee primarily because of the intransigence of the ECSL and lack of consensus on the committee on how to deal with the contentious issues.

“Democracy is clearly under threat in Sierra Leone, and we shall make a mockery of elections if there is no accountability for undermining democracy and elections in Sierra Leone.” he stated.

Let's take our time to address issues. Everybody has right to his or her opinion. The day some of you open your eyes properly to regain consciousness about the attitude of politicians then I will get time to share positive knowledge with your cerebellum. Generations upon generations have come and past in this our beloved country where you can find all potential resources for growth and still yet citizens are still behind sentiment ideologies.. Did our boastful education a reality for mindset reforms or a thrash for thievery, uncivilized and crude by behavior. WE KONTRI REALLY SORRY.

He said ‘ detest attempts to reward bad behavior’ with the MCC grant provision. By the way the MCC grant is for the people of Sierra Leone, not for a political party. But based on his confused logic the people of Sierra Leone do not deserve such a developmental gesture, because of their bad behavior. If you know this fella, please tell him that WE THE PEOPLE will remember and remind him of this abuse at the right and opportunity. Stupid man!

Mr. Author of this article, I've read a whole lot of articles written by you but I'm not sure I've read something positive from you, Mr. Aruna...as a journalist/columnist or whatsoever you call yourself, what are you education the people with, what's the main objective behind your trade...it's like you cannot create ideas of what to write so, you give in to such negative stories in order to have a wider audience...that's negative. So much human related stories to tell but ooya, corruption has mixed up all our brains...thus, we see nothing but money or favour from those useless opposition...I thought Richard came to reform APC or it was just a way to find himself support or acquaintance because he is yet to complete his goal in reforming APC... En sum, my brother look for better human related stories that will help you grow in your trade...stop giving value to some of these messy stories...

If Dr. Richard Conteh, you and your cohorts can do your worse ,the MCC reward is not you property or it's you who should choose who to be given to. For 11 wasteful years your thuggery APC never qualified for it. Why are you now trying to threaten our democracy? My advice , " don't fetch 🐜🐜 ant infected wood and bring it home, you will be inviting lizards🦎🦎🦎 to feast " We are waiting for you and your cohorts. But please be warned.

Sierraloaded i don't get it, you seem to love propagating news and contents that are always not good for this country these days and you hardly promote things that the country has done that will send a good image. Is this how you want to run a noble page like this. I'm speaking from a patriotic view. We see in the US they have all negativity but the media focused more on things that will make people wish to be in there and not that which will drive them away. We have tourist centers which you don't show to the world, beautiful ideas from Sierra Leoneans and a lot more. Yet everyday you promote this politics that has no positive effects in us since ages back. You are trying your best but ust ensure you contents makes positive effect on the country and it's citizens by extension. Thank you
