SLP says no to APC press conference in Magburaka

RE: REQUEST FOR POLICE CLEARANCE AND COVERAGE/SECURITY COVERAGE AND CLEARANCE FOR A PRESS CONFERENCE

I am directed to acknowledge receipt of a letter dated 26 October, 2022 signed by Hon. Abdul Kargbo as Secretary & Head of the Secretariat (TCG) requesting for police clearance for two meetings in P'ortloko and Magburka on 30 " October, 2022 and another letter dated 28 October, 2022 signed by Alfred Peter Conteh as Chairman of the Interim Transitional Governing Committee (ITGC) requesting for seeurity coverage for a Press Conference in Magburaka on the same day 30th October, 2022
I'm  further directed to state that, the SLP is reliably informed of the pending court matter meant  for an interpretation of the ruling of the Hon. Justice Adrian Fisher that established the ITCG.
This, coupled with the situation where both parties intend to have two different programmes in Magburaka on the same date is seen as a source of violent confrontation. Based on the advice of the SLP Legal Deprtment, the SLP is constrained to grant any clearance to any of the two parties until there is a ruling on the ongoing court matter,
Both requests are therefore NOT APPROVED,

By copy hereof, all Regional Police Commanders are informed accordingly

    This is hilarious. I don't think APC is ready for governance after 15yrs.

    The SLP should not stop the interim chairman access to hold the meeting.
    Abdul kargbo is an ordinary secretary to the committee that is answerable to the chairman

EU Budget Support Delay: Government Rejects Link to Judicial Case, Clarifies Reason for 2026 Disbursement Shift

Government Clarifies EU Budget Support Disbursement to Sierra Leone Note: According to the Information and Civic Education Minister.  The Government of Sierra Leone has clarified reports linking the European Union’s 2026 budget-support disbursement to ongoing discussions between Sierra Leone and the Kingdom of the Netherlands on judicial cooperation. According to the Government, the European Commission formally communicated its decision regarding the 2026 disbursement in July. The reasons provided, the Government said, related to the timing of Sierra Leone’s request to amend the Financing Agreement and the resulting difficulty of completing the required processes within the 2026 reporting cycle. As a result, the European Commission proposed rescheduling the 2026 and 2027 disbursements to 2027 and 2028 respectively, with the targets for the 2027 disbursement already agreed. The Government acknowledged that the postponement of the 2026 disbursement represents a setback, b...

Musa Tarawalie and the SLPP: What Could Be Behind the Growing Political Tensions?

Why Musa Tarawalie May Be Facing Friction Within the SLPP Opinion Note: This article represents my personal opinion and interpretation of recent political developments. It should not be taken as established fact or as a definitive account of the reasons behind the situation involving Hon. Musa Tarawalie and the Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP). The question of why Hon. Musa Tarawalie appears to be facing difficulties within the Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP) requires an understanding of the broader political calculations ahead of the 2028 general elections. In my view, the SLPP is determined to retain political power in 2028, and there have been indications of deliberate strategies aimed at achieving that objective through democratic and relatively smooth political processes. One of the arguments supporting this view is President Julius Maada Bio’s public assertion that, in Sierra Leone’s democratic political history, no political party has successfully won three...
