In swift response to Chief Minister Dr. David Moinina Sengeh’s challenge, Dr. Richard Konteh, a prominent opposition figure and former Chief of Staff to President Ernest Bai Koroma, conveyed a message centered on national unity, peace, and justice. This exchange occurred during a radio interview on Radio Democracy on Friday, December 15th.
Dr. Sengeh, issuing a direct challenge, urged Dr. Konteh to release a press statement compelling loyal APC members, especially those not currently in prison, to voluntarily return to incarceration. Emphasizing this point, the Chief Minister stated, “I want Dr. Richard Konteh to release a press statement urging all loyal APC members, especially those on the list currently not in prison, to show up and register themselves back to the prison.” He pledged that peace discussions would commence promptly if escaped APC prisoners willingly surrendered, with the judiciary actively involved.
In response, Dr. Konteh strategically chose a different approach. Via Twitter, he emphasized, “We should continue to focus on national unity, peace, and justice. It is very important.” This succinct statement indicates a dedication to broader societal issues rather than directly addressing Dr. Sengeh’s specific challenge.
The distinct responses from these political figures highlight the deep-seated tensions and differing priorities within Sierra Leone’s political landscape. Dr. Sengeh’s call for the return of escaped APC members to prison underscores the intricate political dynamics, while Dr. Konteh’s focus on national unity suggests a broader perspective aimed at fostering harmony and justice.
As the political discourse unfolds, the reactions of key figures like Dr. Konteh and Dr. Sengeh are poised to shape the narrative surrounding the relations between the opposition party and the government in Sierra Leone.
May God help us all in this nation !!!
There is no two way to this, either the apc prisoners return or we wait until they all return. Sincerity starts from here.
Thees are two different issues to be handle differently, no time to waist we gonna handle them Simontainously well.
Sincerity is absent in the leadrrship of Sierra Leone. The seating govt is known to always dodge blame. They never take responsibility of anything that goes wrong. They are frantically agile in taking praises instead, even when they have little or no hands there. The focus on national unity, peace and cohesion should be govt’s focus. This is no time for politquing.
No peace without justice
The SLPP government is consciously taking back the country into the rebel war era. The most devastating history in our nation. Focusing on national unity, peace and justice for now should be a must or else we are doom as a nation.
One of the points in the agreement is the release of political detainees . But before that the APC should present list of their members that are detained on political grounds . But besides, what is so important in that agreement compared to the security of everybody including the APC members ?
The prisoners that the Minister is asking for their return I am personally worried that if those prisoners allegedly to have escaped were expected to be still alive?

SLPP government presently have nothing to offer to the suppress people of this country ,,,no condition is permanent
The illegitimate government of Julius Maada Bio continues to expose itself everyday. People all over the world knew that Bio and his gang of thugs staged a fake coup in order to implicate the APC and to stall the work of the Tripartite committee. During the staged fake coup, we saw videos of people opening the prisons with keys and telling the inmates to go. Why were the prisons targeted? They were targeted because, the illegitimate Bio regime had murdered all the political prisoners that were affiliated with the APC and so there is no way to account for them. Therefore, opening the prisons to claim that the inmates have escaped was the only option left with them. The most disappointing thing here is listening to a guy called Chief Minister (David Sengeh) asking the APC to return the inmates. Does the chief minister realize that APC is not in governance? Does he realize that APC is not a law enforcement agency? Except if he is saying that APC break the prisons. In that case the burden of proof is on him. Let him prove it otherwise, he should take his empty head to work with the committee and stop distracting Sierra Leoneans.
I think the discussion involved Dr Kaifala Marrah of the opposition APC and chief Minister of the SLPP government. Having mentioned Dr Richard Conte could be a different bored game
I doubt this Government before focusing of developing the nation they are focusing on political fight
First five years was Adebayor
Second five ??? FAIL COUP
MAY ALLAH HELP THIS NATION
The Government
