All those who do not love to hear the truth always consider the Wise Bird to be inquisitive because the bird always calls things by their correct and proper names; at the appropriate place and time.
The Wise Bird has been following all elections conducted under the SLPP regime and their outcome.
The following elections have been conducted since Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP) come to power in 2018 such as: Parliamentary elections, Local Council elections, Presidential elections, By-elections, Students Union elections, Okada elections, Timber Union elections, Kekeh Union, the Mammy Queens election at barracks, Sierra Leone Teachers’ Union (SLTU) election and the just concluded Sierra Leone Bar Association (SLBA) election.
The Wise Bird has noticed that in all of the above named elections, politics took a centre stage in supporting a particular candidate being put forward by the ruling government.
The Wise Bird will say categorically clear that, he saw and monitored all of these elections and reported on them accurately; he can even write a book on them.
Of all, the most disgraceful one is the just concluded Sierra Leone Bar Association SLBA) election in which all the members are fully educated to the letter, yet the ball was kicked over their heads.
The question the Wise Bird wants to ask is where is democracy now? The SLPP is now well-known for conducting controversial elections.
The problem the Wise Bird is now having is that if, let’s think for a moment that, power chances what will happen in such a situation; do the people continue like that- the turn am gie thing?
The Wise Bird has been having sleepless nights in thinking about the repercussion that awaits the nation especially when power will chance hands.
The Wise Bird, as usual, went out to sound the views of people in respect of all the elections conducted by the SLPP and their outcome.
All those the Wise Bird spoke with expressed dissatisfaction over all the elections conducted by the SLPP regime. Some people referred to all the elections conducted as “selection” and not election.
Some of the people told the Wise Bird that there should be no election, what the SLPP is doing today is complete selection of which APC was accused of years back.
One senior states-man told the brave bird that Mohamed Konneh and Ben Kaifala are the same, meaning “like Konneh, like Ben Kaifala,” he uttered.
The shortest verse in the Bible; Jesus wept these time not Jesus; the Wise Bird wept after thinking what will happen when power surely chances hands.
