Chukuma Johnson, Deputy Speaker of Parliament)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Be it known that the APC, as at periods 2007- 2011, has had a make-up of unwholesome cabals divided into camps namely: \u2018Siaka Stevens\u2019 and \u2018President Koroma\u2019 respectively.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As at Sylvia Blyden\u2019s publication of story defining \u201cWhat\u2019s the colour of the APC leader\u2019s underwear,\u201d attributing same as \u201cKoromaism discussion of the colour of male politicians\u2019 underwear in assumed visit to discuss party politics,\u201d issues of divisions in the APC seemed to overcome the minds of very senior members of the party.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is recalled though that in April 2009, the APC held its convention in Makeni, north of Sierra Leone, where it elected President Koroma as Chairman and Leader of the party.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At the Makeni convention, it was agreed that the life of the office of the Chairman of APC be extended to three years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To some, it was greeted with joy, but to others, it was a complete manipulation of their party\u2019s abiding.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the face of the above, it is, but glaring obvious that disgruntled party officials seemed wary over President Koroma\u2019s divide and rule doctrine and have vowed to go into a legal power struggle with him.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Facts have it that separatists of the APC, so to say, the late Siaka Stevens\u2019 brought ups, have had their sleeves up and ready to slam a law suit against President Koroma should he go on violating the clause in the constitution of the APC party.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Contemplations of party loyalists also point out strategies of the APC leadership; reproachfully accusing him of intentfully appointing late Siaka Stevens\u2019 breeds as Ambassadors in countries abroad, to drive them off the seat of leadership.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is a believable fact that officials of the new APC have no intention dealing with breeds of late Siaka Stevens at all.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In an interview with the Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Hon. Chukuma Johnson, he told this press that executive positions in the APC are legally up to date.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He did not tell whether the APC has any arrangement to hold its convention in April 2011.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Stay with Sierra Express Media, for your trusted place in news!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The gossip chat say cabalists of the ruling \u2018All People Congress\u2019 party (APC) may possibly take President Koroma to court for violating portions of the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":75801,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[671,692,1],"tags":[689,1055,5492,937],"class_list":["post-20393","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-politics","category-uncategorized","tag-apc","tag-president-ernest-bai-koroma","tag-sierra-leone-news","tag-sierra-leone-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20393","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=20393"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20393\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/75801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=20393"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=20393"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sierraexpressmedia.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=20393"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
