The Mayor of Freetown, Yvonne Aki-Sawyerr successfully attended a fundraising event for her All People’s Congress (APC) party in Kono District, Eastern Sierra Leone.

The fundraising event was hosted by the APC Chairladies Eastern Region.

Had a great evening with amazing people who are committed to investing in the lives of women,” Mayor Aki-Sawyerr shared on her Facebook page.

The fundraising is one of many to be organised by the main opposition, the APC party.

Experts believe that such an event assures supporters and members of the party on the path of unity.

The APC party, despite being Sierra Leone’s main opposition party is fraught with disunity among key party members. This has left some members of the party in fear of losing the next elections in 2028.

The party faced defeats in the 2018 and 2023 presidential elections against the Sierra Leone People’s Party, claiming that these elections were affected by electoral fraud. Looking ahead, the party is focused on securing victory in the upcoming 2028 presidential election, aiming for a successful campaign to capture the State House.
