Sierra Leone’s President Julius Maada Bio has expressed his views on the main opposition All People’s Congress (APC) Party, suggesting that they lacked a compelling message for Sierra Leoneans during the previous election and currently.
Discussing the topic of education and the criticism from the opposition regarding the 22% budget allocation, which they believe isn’t delivering expected outcomes, President Bio highlighted that education has been his government’s focus since 2018. He indicated that this emphasis would continue, mentioning the opposition’s apparent disregard for education and their lack of support for its initiatives. “They don’t like education,” he noted.
President Bio further claimed that the opposition seems to thrive more when the populace is uninformed, potentially leveraging that to their advantage.
Regarding allegations about the June 24th election rigging, President Bio clarified that the constitutionally designated authority for conducting and announcing election results is the electoral commission. This body had overseen and declared the election’s outcome. He countered claims of international committees being responsible for declaring winners, which the opposition seemed to expect.
“Elections everywhere have never been without dispute; these are highly contentious issues everywhere in the world including the United States of America,” President Bio stated.
He further emphasized that any parties with grievances should approach the court for resolution. Reflecting on his own experiences, he said, “Go to the court, that was what I did when they said I lost the election.” He reminded that every political party had a representative at polling centers, implying transparency in the process. He concluded by suggesting that the APC’s reluctance to go to court might stem from their awareness of the election’s legitimacy.
They (APC ) promote illiteracy, tribalism, nepotism, regionalism, by producing unpatriotic citizens, hates speech against one another in Sierra Leone. How can APC build the economy after destroying it outrageous by President Bio winning 2018 elections. How can have a message for Sierra Leonean in 2023 elections when they hope on lies and deceiving people everyday in Sierra Leone. I’m warning President Bio to focus on the problems of Sierra Leone instead of APC predicament of regrets.
It’s a big lie man. If so why didn’t you tallaed and announced the real outcome of the elections results. Is it possible for Bonthe and Pujehun to have the same number of voters. Your rigging exposed big one. Please stop deceiving people
The APC party members had no camping message but they won the elections. Maada Bio, you are a THIEF, a KILLER and a Professional LIER. You are not ashamed of yourself.
The ICC will teach you and your rebel supporters a lesson you will never forget. Nobody in this country imitate your leadership style.
Listen to the bofoon Mohamed Kamara of the stupid APC. How is it possible for APC with no money and did not campaign and at the same time win an election? If you know that you the lost-tracked apc won and it was rigged then present your case to the court. But I don’t blame you because you are all re-ecoing what the stupid adebayo tells you from his hideout. You keep on crying the election was stolen but have no evidence to show you see how reckless you are? Sylvia Blyden of the apc will serve as the number one witness for SLPP that the election was genuine and that preaident Bio will beat Samura Kamara 100 million times again and again any time there is an election organized between apc and the SLPP.
Fool man n fool man APC should to court now,I are tylier to hear lie lie talk pls
