SUNSET FOR THE APC---THE LONG AWAITED REPORT IS OUT…

An Ibrahim Jalloh (Jallomy's Commentary)
The APC Party is in a strategic dilemma. Since the party lost the March 2018 presidential run-off, life in the party has been a chain of disillusionment. The APC Party’s defeat was unpredicted, colossal, shocking and completely shatter.

The captain and crew of crash plane could not see reason or respect convention wisdom to abdicate. In their attempt to find meaning and relevance to still hold on the reins, the hurriedly set up a committee of nine with the principal objective to find out the obvious reason for the fall of the party. The committee was staffed with a group of eminent personality that have mostly absented themselves from the major event of Sierra Leone politics.

Perhaps the only personality in the committee that is conversant with national politics is Sylvia Blyden who find it extremely difficult to operate within an established order. Already there are rumor of dissention in the committee of nine. This means that collective ownership of the report is spotty and patchy.

The APC Party is still adrift with the risk of hitting an iceberg. The unbridled arrogant of the current leadership of the APC to abdicate is a complete political anathema.

If the leadership of the APC had stepped aside, the long and unnecessary time spent by the committee to investigate the obvious could has served a cooling of period. We need to free the Party from the colonial clutches of the current party leadership.

The emerging reformist movements in the party are a solid indicator of the end of the road should callous arrogance to hold on to the reins persist. This is sunset for the APC but we are gradually drifting to night fall for the APC.

Senegal, first African team to beat England, but not first to score three goals

By: Alusine Rehme Wilson Claim: Soccer World HQ, in a Facebook post , claimed that Senegal is the first African team to beat England and the first to score three goals against them. Verdict: Partly True! Senegal is the first African team to beat England, but not the first to score three goals against them. Full Text The England senior men’s national football team, nicknamed the “Three Lions,” played their first match against Scotland in 1872. That match ended goalless but marked the beginning of an intense soccer rivalry between both nations, dubbed the “Auld Enemy.” Since 1872-2025, the England national team has achieved its 1000-game milestone in November 2019 when they played Montenegro at the Wembley Stadium. England's all-time head-to-head record shows that they’ve played a whopping 1072 matches against 100 countries, won 615 games, drew 255, and lost 200. Senegal, on the other hand, is one of Africa’s most famous football nations, nicknamed the “Lions of Teranga.” In 2002, ...

Sierra Leone, Two other Nations disqualified from AFCON 2024 U17 Qualifiers

By: Abdulrahman Barrie The U17 football teams from Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Guinea Bissau have been disqualified from the 2024 U17 African Cup of Nations competition in Senegal after failing the mandatory MRI test scans. These scans, which determine the age of the players, revealed discrepancies that led to their removal from the tournament. The disqualification follows changes to Article 27.4 of the U17 Africa Cup of Nations regulations, which have tightened the criteria and enforcement of age verification measures. The updated rules stipulate that if a team has more than four players deemed ineligible after the MRI eligibility test, the entire team will be disqualified. The MRI tests, used to enforce age restrictions in youth competitions, are crucial for ensuring fairness. Unfortunately, the teams from these three nations did not meet the age criteria, resulting in their disqualification. This decision has come as a significant disappointment for the young players and their fans, w...
