PPRC Calls APC, ECSL to Dialogue

The political Party Regulation Commission has called the All People’s Congress (APC), the Sierra Leone Police (SLP) and the Electoral Commission of Sierra Leone (ECSL) to a dialogue meeting. The meeting will be co-hosted by the Independent Commission for Peace and National Cohesion(ICPNC) today at the Buntumani International Conference Center at Aberdeen.

This dialogue was called following several claims of electoral malpractices to be done in the June 24 general elections. The APC in the past days have made claims on issues they had with the ECSL commissioners’ ways of organizing the election materials and providing data following the election and for these they demanded the commissioners to resign in a 72 hours period that has already expired.

The ECSL boss, Mohamed Konneh, said that they are not going to resign and the APC issued a release to announce a peaceful protest against the ECSL.

The dialogue will host the Electoral Commission of Sierra Leone, the Security Sector Actors: National Security Coordinator. Inspector General of Police, Development Partners, Election Observer Missions and line Civil Society Organizations.

Mohammed Konneh is not responsible for the inability of APC of APC to have a campaign message to the electorates. He was nominated, vetted by our parliament and duly commissioned to assent to office No ragged, insensitive persons or group of persons could demand his resignation with out due process Any one can decide to participate or not in the forthcoming elections at will. Citizens are prepared to go to the pools

If a dialog for you means someone should resign, then you aren't serious and sincere.

The dialogue we want to hear is Mohamed Konneh should resign with immediate effect and allow independent commission to conduct the election. If not we will take to the street and demonstrate. This Bio regime is not needed any more.
