Addressing a press conference at the New Brookfields Hotel in Freetown yesterday, the APC Presidential candidate Dr. Samura Mathew Wilson Kamara called on the Chief Electoral Commissioner and Chairman of ECSL (Electoral Commission of Sierra Leone) and all ECSL Commissioners to resign within 72 hours to make way for the 24th June elections to be conducted by a new outfit to be appointed by the international community.
At the same press conference, Dr. Samura Kamara called on Sierra Leoneans to come out and cast their votes on June 24, 2023.
Reacting to Dr Samura Kamaraโ€™s long and confusing speech, the Chief Minister and SLPP Manifesto Committee Chairman, Jacob Jusu Saffa said, โ€œThe APC Presidential candidate has clearly shown that, he is unfit and unprepared to govern our country…At yesterdayโ€™s press conference the man spent two hours making a rambling speechโ€ฆCalling for the entire ECSL Commissioners to resign within 72 hours with less than 2 weeks to general elections shows that either the APC party Presidential candidate is not ready or he is not prepared to take part in the elections scheduled for 24th June, 2023โ€ฆHis only interest is to cause chaos in the country and provoke or incite violence in order for the elections to be postponedโ€ฆThe ECSL have made it very clear that they are set to conduct elections on 24th June 2023โ€, Jacob Jusu Saffa said.
The Chief Minister assured that, the SLPP and all other registered political parties will take part in the elections on 24th June, 2023.
โ€œOur Presidential candidate Brig. (Rtd) Dr. Julius Maada Bio has campaigned effectively in every nook and cranny of the countryโ€ฆThe date for the elections was announced 14 months agoโ€ฆCalling for the ECSL Commissioners to resign is an admission by the APC Presidential candidate that he has lost the electionsโ€ฆHe has seen the writing on the wallโ€ฆHe knows that he would lose the elections on June 24 that is why he (Dr. Samura Kamara) is calling for all ECSL Commissioners to resign within 72 hoursโ€ฆIt shows that the man is not ready to face the electorateโ€ฆHe wants to come to government through the back doorโ€ฆThat is impossibleโ€, J.J. Saffa said.
A spokesman for the ECSL told the Global Times last night that โ€œelections will go ahead as scheduled on 24th June, 2023โ€.
