Senior member of Sierra Leone’s main opposition All People’s Congress (APC) Party, Lawyer Sorie Tarawally has cautioned his party against boycott of governance.
“Those who brought us the boycott of the ill designed midterm census are now promoting a boycott of government and governance post 2023 elections,” Tarawally said.
He said the ruling Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP) will care less about their boycott and rule until 2028 elections.
The APC member said their strategy for this election was a failure and need to visit the drawing board ahead of the next elections.
“We have to engage the Sierra Leonean people; attempt to engage all the people from all regions of the country.
“Tone down on the invectives; allow inputs from all people,” Tarawally said.
He added the formula they used in 2023 is similar to 2018 and they lost both elections with the only difference being the margin.
“We lost 2023 as we did 2018 only with a wider margin,” he said.
While Tarawally and some few members of the main opposition have conceded defeat in the 24 June presidential polls, a large following of the party have refused the results calling on the Electoral Commission for Sierra Leone (ECSL) to release results by polling stations.
The ECSL have not acceded to their request forcing the party to boycott government and governance.
Last week, only one APC Member of Parliament was present for the taking of Oath of Office ceremony.
The party’s leadership have refused to challenge the results in court citing that the Judiciary lacks independence.
Apc had a simple task of atleast showing the public their RRF forms and total votes counts from the RRF forms, even if they don’t believe the judiciary
Sorie Tarawalie you must be stupid and narrow minded to think that you can think better than the other people. The majority of the people of Sierra Leone have spoken against a rouge and killer regime. Who are you to think otherwise?
It is getting clean that some of you are sellouts. We have defeated you the tractors, the PAOPA rebel killer government and the hopelessness and shameless ECSL Commissioner.
Tarawalie, you are limited in understanding what happens around you. You can go to the primary school children and ask them to educate you a little on what is happening in this country.
Check properly the current status of the PAOPA killer government and their families. That is an assignment for you. Submit it on the 31st July, 2023.
You party is suffering from mental problem whether you caution or not they will not listen
Mind you sahid Allah is watching
APC party are not law abiding,their nature are truthful, Anyone who correct them you will be the main enemy,what I noticed educated,non educated and native are all thinking one way. When someone has gained disposition,there is nothing one can do to save them. That’s the reason God said ” anyone one who has gone astray only his glory would influence that particular life.
Shaid Mohamed Kamara can you listen to yourself, listen to the nonsensical nonsense you are saying against a senior member of the party, Look at the Dude, everyone is seeing your hopelessness and the horribleness you are projecting. You are one of the rebels that lack foresight, you are just too hot to come and still the country’s wealth. Present your evidence of defeat before talking thrash. Idiot
Sahid mohamed kenema if you think that your APC party owns Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 you will learn the lesson after three months the people of Sierra Leone have spoken they voted 🗳 our president to state house 🏠 full stop ✋
@Sahid Mohamed Kamara, your response to Mr Tarawally’s comment is so typical of the majority of APC supporters. You are rude, deluded and believe your own lies.
Your heinous party lost the general elections, period!
Ok, maybe you are too thick to get it. Well, let me push it through your thick skull. Your party lost the whole of the South Eastern provinces of Sierra Leone, to the ruling SLPP. To name a few District head quarters, Kono, Kailahun, Kenema, Bo, Punjehun, Moyamba (APC had only 2 MP).
On the other hand, SLPP WHIPPED Ur party in your strongholds. Kambia was divided, the SLPP won Falaba, picked MPs in Port Loko, increased their votes significantly in every area in the North. Simply because the people in the North are beginning to realise APC is a useless, violent, Mammy Cuss party. People also see the stride President Bio has made and is making to develop the country and make the lives of Sierra Leoneans better, inspite of inheriting a country in austerity, and subsequently the Covid pandemic and the Ukraine and Russia war, causing inflation globally.
Western Urdan and Rural areas, the same winning trend continued for the ruling SLPP. Only a moroon would look at the trends and number of votes the SLPP got and say your party won the elections.
The APC is divided and divisive, and not good for our beautiful country. Your party is corrupt to the core and lack moral values. The last APC brought our country to it knees, the previous were not any better. During Steven time, we stood in lines to buy rice, Momoh was not any better.
@ Kamara, your APC and your deluded self have nothing to offer our country but bongo fort threats and making baseless allegations of k!lling. Sierra Leoneans have clearly showed the world they don’t trust your party or believe your lies and that is why we rejected your party again and believe me, we will kick you out again come 2028.
All the anger and bitterness you are displaying is because your plans to lay your filthy finger on our national coffers has failed. Thief!!!! Babo yei O!!
You Jihadist, Terrorist, Insurrectionist!
Who kill Abdulai Mustapha, SO Williams, Sam Bangura the late governor of the central bank. Youths in Kabala, raping and maiming of SLPP supporters in their party office, these are to name a few. These were all killed by successive APC governments. An APC supporter should be the last to take the moral high grounds. Lonta.
Let me tell you now! This brand of SLPP, we are proudly PaOpa, we are not like our forefathers O! We give fire for fire. We ready for unar.
APC will never learn. Winning Freetown means they won. Go and take the power. Boycott and wait for 2028
Most of these comments are coming from the PAOPA rebel killer people where Tarawalie belongs and so I don’t mind them.
The main objective of the PAOPA regime is to be in power by all means. These PAOPA people do not know that Sierra Leone is now a democratic country.
These are people who do not also understand the simple principles and practices of democracy. They also fail to understand that the world is now a global village which has developed technologically to an extent that the activities of people are monitored on daily basis…” Very little chances for secricy ”
All what the APC Leadership and we the supporters are asking for is simple. We want the ECSL Commissioner to simply publish all the polling stations and polling centers data results and RRF forms that are signed by the Elections officers on the election day.
This was a simple request made to the ECSL Commissioner by all the national and international observers, diplomats, Ambassadors and High Commissioners to ensure transparency and Credibility of the results announced.
The stance of the APC is also simple. The APC party members are asking the Electoral Commissioner of Sierra Leone to publish the results according to polling stations and polling centers with the signed RRF Forms, without which the party does not recognize the results and will not take party in governance.
If Tarawalie, at his age and supposed educational level does not understand the stance of ( his party), and comes out
publicly to denounce his supposed party’s decision, then some thing is wrong with him. Tarawalie if indeed he is an APC party member , let him directly contact the APC party executive for clarifications.
You the SLPP party supporters have no rights to comment on specific APC issues. For me, I have rights to comment on whoever is a national leader like Maada Bio. I should say what I feel about him. That is democracy. I know that some of you are blind supporters of the PAOPA regime and do not know the consequences of the actions of Maada Bio and his ECSL Commissioner on the country.
Wait a little, you will understand!!
Hypocrisy is gradually taking us back to the dark old days, people would see white but ended up calling it black and want sane people to believe that…the request of the APC, International community, well wishers of Sierra Leone is simple; ECSL, publish the disaggregated polling data station by station. Where there had been nothing fishy, the ECSL would have been the happiest to prove their innocence… continue downplaying this issue and see where that will lead us to… the so-called government is now facing legitimacy issues with the wider part of the international community…den say go school you say Bo school!!!
Paid slpp trumpeter to blow for them so that you can turn the heads of APC to come on board. Apc we are what we are trust me
