Dear Mr Editor,
Please allow me space in your reputable and widely read newspaper.
I am a regular reader of the Africa24 Newspaper and I love the way the editor and the entire editorial team display maturity in their work.
What I love most is your ‘policy statement’ because it is very explicit you are doing exactly what your policy statement stands for.
Before pushing further, let me make my position abundantly clear that, I don’t belong to any of the political parties in the country.
However, my wife is a supporter of the Sierra Leone people’s party (SLPP) and my children are supporting the APC that is their democratic and natural right that I cannot deny them.
Though I have earlier stated that I do not belong to a particular political party but I do admire individual politicians for specific reasons.
Honestly, Dr. Samura Kamara is one of those politicians I had secretly admired as APC flag-bearer and leader but it appears he wants to let me down.
To me, since he was elected as flag-bearer and leader of the party, he has never exhibited quality leadership as he is always forced to act.
As a leader, it’s expected that you take the lead while the supporters follow. But without disrespect to the old man, he always behaves like any Nursery two (2) child. He has disappointed all of his supporters including my children.
To be candid, I am in sympathy with my children and all those that voted for him due to his ‘weak attitude’ to take hard decision.
But again, I don’t want to wholly shift the blame to Dr. Samura Kamara because those who voted him gave you the wrong person. So you have to take heart my people and pray for a fearless leader to save your party in future.
Until then, stay focus.
Thanks
Alpha Borbor Turay
