What is the current mood of the APC opposition party members both at home and abroad after the release of the Tripartite Committee’s final report?
Under the Current leadership of the Opposition APC Party, the party has finally lost its path and direction in Sierra Leone’s politics which is quite understandable by the party Supporters.
The APC Party is already descending into a postmortem as the Tripartite result has befallen their politicians and their self-vicious recrimination is haunting them, and it’s time for them to recalibrate and come to time with reform, peace and Unity within their party.
Indeed it has been a terrible tripartite period for the APC Party but all they can do now is to learn from their mistakes as the Party politicians are now engaged in recrimination while worrying about their disappointment and Cynicism surrounding them. But the big question is What have they learnt about their Party politics and the Country as a whole?.
With the conclusion of the much hyped Tripartite, the trust in the APC politicians is now at its lowest ebb and the general mood of the Supporters is cynical with no overriding loyalty to any of the Party’s Politicians.
What next for the APCians? Will their politicians be punished for their broken Promises, lies, Propaganda and much else to the gullible Supporters? With the Tripartite, there seems to be a possibility of a different kind of APCness with a brace of seditious Usurp of power that never came to the justification of their hopes.
The Party’s self destruction was always destined but lacked the ability and Unity to govern. They offered nothing resembling national peace and Unity to the people of Sierra Leone over the past five years that the Country requires, except the concept that reveals their chronic lack of political Sentiment.
The Tripartite, the “lies of lies” outcome has left the APC morally as well as politically discredited. If the Grand Old party wants to be a party of governance in waiting, they have to accept a new paradigm of Unity and reforms. They should rethink and open the roadmap to peace by Mr. Alfred Peter Conteh, the man of credibility rather than simply radical. He has always reaffirmed for the party’s full commitment to peace and Unity.
For the Grand Old party to be in peace and Unity within themselves, they have to be gracious with defeat, and the roadmap of Alfred Peter Conteh which should be resurrected and the removal of the party’s Octogenarians that have wrecked the party’s reputation. After years of dismal performance, the APC Party needs a concerted effort on reform, peace and Unity.
The Party needs to renew their faith in Mr. Alfred Peter Conteh as a vehicle for peace and Unity, for the sake of democracy.
The prolonged disunity and bickering in the APC Party is due to the betrayal vibes of the different factions. Peter Conteh’s personal enthusiasm for his country and his APC Party means that, APC Party must now Unite and deliver its democratic role to the people of Sierra Leone , and Conteh’s role in the party politics is always to seek Common ground for his APC Party.
His approach to the problem in his party is to reach out to the different factions and amicably develop bi-factional dialogue in the interest of his party. He is indeed a realist that is totally despondent of the intractable division in his party.
Without Unity in the APC Party, the outcome of the Tripartite will have seismic consequences on the future of the APC Party if they failed to reset their ideological political dishonesty, infernal, and mind – destroying politics of deceit.
The APC party of Sierra Leone should now realize that, most of their Party Supporters are now in a dyspeptic and frustrated mood because of the way they have been treated by their dishonest politicians.
With the dusted Tripartite and the dizzying reversal of the re- run hope, the political fortune must now speak for itself.
The election defeat and the Tripartite outcome has finally fractured the APC Party, leaving the Party increasingly erratic with itself as they confront the challenges of deceptions, and Integrity as many Party Supporters are expressing their disillusionment over what they see in their party as a deceptive politics.
At the moment of intense uncertainty, lack of peace and Unity is a big theme in the Party and also serves as a microcosm of the challenges facing them.
The Party should have benefited from the roadmap for peace initiated by Alfred Peter Conteh who tried to cultivate Party members into the Orbit of Unity, but yet was confronted by an increasingly murky political debacle.
By pursuing his ambition as a reformer, Alfred Peter Conteh is still dragging his party to the centre stage of the peace negotiation table and to rekindle the little of hope that is left in the politics of the APC which is a glorious reception for those who cherish democracy.
After years of retrogression, wasted time, set of self -Serving and propaganda in the party, there is indeed a need for a new era and clarity, with the task of allaying the feud and dysfunctional politics to the needs of members and supporters of the party.
After the Tripartite outcome, the party is deservedly more routed now due to the rambling, misinformation, disunity and dysfunction. The party is now broken with the absence of unity and on its way to nowhere.
But with the Peculiar status quo of Alfred Peter Conteh as a unifier has portrayed him as a national figure in the politics of Sierra Leone. His intervention in the APC Party is the Start of the peace process and the subject of political discourse, and a man who is trying to haul the Party out of the abyss of politics and back into a party of contention for power. But would this be a mission impossible?
APCians should have stopped being used by the foxes of deception. The party is still being used by the resulting waves of the claims and toxic counter claims by the dishonest politicians of the party who have mortgaged their integrity with a self – contained theatre of political manoeuvre.
They have nothing to offer to the party except to hold the party hostage to their state felony charges or nothing rather than their deceptions, lies, propaganda and the foolish recklessness of their factional malaise and to parrot their inanity plan of national destruction.
Party Supporters and members of the Grand Old Party should come to terms with reform and Unity. They should listen to Alfred Peter Conteh and give him a space for dramatic reforms.
APCians should search quickly for peace and Unity within their Party but it will all weigh up whether another metamorphosis is still in the thrall of the old Foxes of the party or not.
The Grand Old party is indeed in a divided state, and therefore dialogue and reforms should become the centre theme of the power struggle within the Party. Mr. Alfred Peter Conteh has a penchant for finding Common ground in the APC Party as there is no easy way out of the factional fog in the Grand Old party.
But can the Messiah for reform and Unity strike peace and Unity in the APC Party and bring the politicians, Supporters and Party members together to create a unified policy that Will reset the Party’s cordial relationship with members and supporters and work in the interest of the Party? I think if Mr. Alfred Peter Conteh can’t strike the peace in the APC Party, I don’t think anyone can. But It all remains to be seen.
!! LONG LIVE THE PEOPLE OF SIERRA LEONE
!! GOD BLESS US ALL!!
