APC draws attention to grave situation before runoff Constituency 110 elections

 

NOTICE FROM THE APC

THE APC HEREBY BRINGS TO THE NOTICE OF THE NEC ,THE PPRC ,THE INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE AND THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY, THE GRAVE SITUATION WHICH IS DEVELOPING PRECEDENT TO THE RUN-OFF ELECTION IN CONSTITUENCY 110 .THIS UGLY SITUATION MUST BE ARRESTED IMMEDIATELY:-

1. AS PARTIES ARE REQUIRED BY A PPRC NOTICE TO LIMIT THEIR CAMPAIGN ACTIVITIES AT SPECIFIED LOCATIONS, THE SLPP BLATANTLY DISREGARDED THE NOTICE AND CAME OUT IN LARGE NUMBERS And PROCESSED ALL OVER THE CONSTITUENCY SINGING PROVOCATIVE SONGS AGAINST THE APC on TUESDAY 30TH JULY 2019.

2. THE APC FROWNS AT THE POLICE FOR RESTRICTING ARRESTS OF RIOTERS AT HAMILTON ON 29TH JULY 2019 TO ONLY APC PEOPLE. MOST OF THE ARRESTS WERE DONE BY SLPP VIGILANTES WHO HANDED OUR MAINLY INNOCENT PEOPLE TO THE POLICE. THE SLPP CANDIDATE JOSEPHINE JACKSON HAS A LIST OF APC PEOPLE IN THE AREA THAT ARE BEING HOUNDED AND THREATENED WITH ARREST. THE PERSONAL GUARDS OF THE SAID JOSEPHINE JACKSON ARE MILITARY PERSONNEL AND HER DRIVER IS ALSO A MILITARY MAN. SIXTEEN APC OFFICIALS HAVE SUFFERED RAIDS ON THEIR PREMISES BY SLPP VIGILANTES HEADED BY JOSEPHINE JACKSON. ARRESTS OF OUR SUPPORTERS ARE STILL ON GOING AND AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD CANNOT BE GUARANTEED UNDER SUCH INTIMIDATING CIRCUMSTANCES.

3. WHY IS THE POLICE NOT INTERESTED IN INVITING JOSEPHINE JACKSON AFTER VIDEO CLIPS OF APC PEOPLE BEING TORTURED IN HER HOUSE REVEAL HORRENDOUS HUMAN RIGHT ABUSES BY THIS SLPP CANDIDATE? THE VIDEO CLIP OF A YOUNG MAN WITH SEVERE WOUNDS ALL OVER HIS BODY HAS NOT ATTRACTED THE SIERRA LEONE HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION AND OTHER CSOS. IT IS OUR CONSIDERED OPINION THAT JOSEPHINE JACKSON’S CONDUCT WARRANTS HER DISQUALIFICATION FROM CONTESTING IN THE UP COMING ELECTION IN CONSTITUENCY 110.

4. TWENTY TWO ALLEGED APC RIOTERS WERE RELUCTANTLY CHARGED ON THE 5TH AUGUST HAVING BEEN ARRESTED ON 29TH JULY . THEY HAVE ALL BEEN TAKEN TO THE PADEMBA ROAD MAXIMUM PRISON HAVING BEEN DENIED BAIL. THIS ACTION BY THE POLICE AND THE LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES IS COMPLETELY AGAINST THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 17 OF ACT NO.6 OF 1991 ,THE SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND.

5. AS WE ARE SLATED TO CONTINUE OUR CAMPAIGN TODAY 7TH AUGUST 2019 ,WE CALL ON THE POLICE ,NEC AND THE PPRC TO RESTRAIN THE GROUP LED BY JOSEPHINE AND SOME POLICE AND MILITARY OFFICERS FROM POUNCING ON OUR SUPPORTERS UNDER THE PRETENSE OF BEING “WANTED BY THE CID.”

6. FINALLY WE WANT TO ASSURE THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY THAT WE DEPEND ON THE ORGANIC LINK BETWEEN US AND THE MAJORITY OF THE ELECTORATE TO WIN ANY FREE AND FAIR ELECTION WHICH IS ALSO FREE FROM FEAR. WE ALSO ADMONISH OUR NUMEROUS SUPPORTERS AND MEMBERSHIP TO OBEY THE LAW.

HIGEST REGARDS,

AMB DR ALHAJI OSMAN FODAY YANSANEH
NSG APC
