Africa-Press – Sierra-Leone. <\/strong><\/span>The APC Presidential Candidate, Dr Samura Kamara has held talks with other aspirants for the leadership of the APC at his Wellington Street office in Freetown.<\/p>\n

<\/a>The purpose of the meeting according to Dr. Samura Kamara is to promote intra-party unity to the level of cohesion and cooperation within the APC party.<\/p>\n

According to Samura Kamara, if the party\u2019s members are all on the same page, they\u2019ll be better able to solve pressing problems and make sound decisions.<\/p>\n

Dr. Samura Kamara emphasized that the public\u2019s confidence and backing in the APC can grow when its members work together as one. More voters and supporters for the party could be attracted in this way.<\/p>\n

A unified APC party he said can better plan and execute campaigns that are successful and in line with the party\u2019s ideals.<\/p>\n

It is the shared belief that if the party is successful on June 24, 2023, it will be closer to implementing its policy goals for the benefit of all Sierra Leoneans.<\/p>\n

Dr. Samura Kamara noted that financial and human capital, among other APC assets, are more effectively deployed when the party is united. A greater and more efficient impact and accomplishment of the party\u2019s goals can result from this.<\/p>\n

All former Flag Bearer aspirants agree that the APC\u2019s success may be jeopardized by internal disagreements and divisions, which can lengthen the time it takes to make decisions.<\/p>\n

Supporters and sympathizers of the party have welcomed the move made by Kamara after rurumorshat some contestants were dissatisfied and bewitched the result.<\/p>\n

Kamara, a former Bank Governor and Foreign Minister of the Ernest Bai Koroma administration was elected as the party\u2019s presidential candidate for the June elections in a landslide on 22 February this year.<\/p>\n

The veteran politician also contested the 2018 presidential election under the same ticket but lost to now-incumbent Maada Bio.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the APC presidential candidate has not chosen a running mate weeks after their National Delegates Conference in Makeni.<\/p>\n

At current, four names are up for the position. They include the former vice president, Alhaji Samuel Sam-Sumana, APC parliamentary leader, Chernoh Maju Bah, mayor of Freetown, Yvonne Aki-Sawyerr and newbie, Sheik Mohamed Kamara popularly known as Jagaban.<\/p>\n
