In presenting the Paramount Chief to the people of Maforki, the Hon.

He advised them to desist from their campaigns and focus on supporting the President’s Agenda for Prosperity. He described their desperation as a distraction to the President’s Agenda. ” Let us for now put politics aside and remain focus on the success of President Koroma’s Agenda. It is only when President Koroma succeed, that the APC will continue to remain in power” admonished the Hon. VP. He affirms that the APC is a Party that rewards hard work and loyalty, he cited himself as a perfect example.
The Hon.

Captain Valentine Strasser, is a symbolic move of reconciliation and national cohesion. It points to the fact that we hold no grudge against anyone” he reiterates. He also informed the gathering of his now brotherly relationship with the former Vice President and Flagbearer of the SLPP, SOLOMON EKUMA BEREWA, who had once prosecuted him for treason; and the bond he has formed with the Hinga Norman family.
