APC SOUNDS THE ALARM AS SLPP ATTEMPTS TO RIG THE KOINADUGU DISTRICT COUNCIL CHAIRMANSHIP AND WARD 155 BYE ELECTIONS.
THIS IS TO BRING TO THE ATTENTION OF THE CHAIRMAN OF NATIONAL ELECTORAL COMMISSION (NEC) AND THE CHAIRMAN POLITICAL PARTIES REGISTRATION COMMISSION (PPRC)THAT A NUMBER OF UGLY ELECTORAL MALPRACTICES ARE BEING DEVELOPED IN KOINADUGU PRECEDENT TO THE BYE ELECTIONS SLATED TO TAKE PLACE ON 2nd OCTOBER 2021.
- THE ARREST AND DETENTION OF SOME OF OUR POLLING AGENTS ON FALSE ALLEGATIONS IS INTENDED TO PREVENT OUR TRAINED AGENTS FROM PARTICIPATING AND MANNING THEIR DESIGNATED POLLING CENTERS. THIS WAS THE TACTICS THE SIERRA LEONE POLICE UNDER IG MOIGBE EMPLOYED IN THE BYE ELECTIONS IN FALABA WHICH LEFT MOST OF THE POLLING STATIONS WITHOUT APC POLLING AGENTS. THE SLPP EVENTUALLY WON THE FALABA DISTRICT COUNCIL SEAT.
- RELIABLE INFORMATION REACHING THE NATIONAL SECRETARIAT OF THE APC INDICATES THAT A GROUP OF ROGUE ELEMENTS WITHIN THE SLPP HAVE SECURED EXTRA BALLOT PAPERS WITH THE SOLE INTENTION TO STUFF BALLOT BOXES TO THE ADVANTAGE OF THE SLPP CANDIDATE IN THE UPCOMING KOINADUGU BYE ELECTIONS.
WE WANT TO PUT ALL STAKEHOLDERS ON NOTICE INCLUDING THE ELECTIONS MANAGEMENT BODIES AND THE INTERNAL AND INTERNATIONAL OBSERVERS-THAT WE ARE NOT GOING TO ALLOW THESE ROGUE ELEMENTS IN COHORT WITH SOME SENIOR NEC OFFICERS TO DEPRIVE US OF VICTORY.
THE NEC ,NEW , PPRC AND SECURITY FORCES ARE HEREBY REQUESTED TO ENSURE NOBODY INCLUDING NEC OFFICIALS ENTERS THE POLLING STATIONS WITHOUT BEING SEARCHED FOR BALLOT PAPERS.
