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.
