In an unusual angry outburst, former President Dr Ernest Bai Koroma has clarified that, he was not supporting any aspirant for the post of flag bearer of the APC party in 2028.
He took a swipe at the defeated APC Presidential candidate in 2018 and 2023, Dr Samura Kamara, referring to him as โunreliable and selfishโ.
He further accused Dr Samura Kamara of sponsoring negative social media reports against him, using some of his supporters who have become regular bloggers.
Former President Koroma disclosed in the leaked audio conversation with a veteran APC member, his ambition to return home from self-imposed exile in Nigeria and live his normal life.
Meanwhile, the Attorney General and Minister of Justice has said that, he was not aware of any ECOWAS-led negotiations between the Government of Sierra Leone and the ECOWAS Commission hinging on the safe return of former President Koroma from Nigeria.
He added that, former President Koromaโs court case will resume as soon as he returns from his medical treatment in Nigeria.
The former President faces four counts charges for his alleged involvement in the planning and execution of the failed November 26, 2023 coup plot.
His imminent return to Sierra Leone is being speculated in several opposition leaning newspapers.
