Africa-Press – Sierra-Leone. <\/strong><\/span>A joint delegation from the Commonwealth, ECOWAS, and the European Union (EU) is set to arrive in Freetown today, September 25, 2023, Sierraloaded has learnt.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

This delegation is expected to facilitate discussions between the governing Sierra Leone People\u2019s Party (SLPP) and the opposition All Peoples Congress (APC) in an effort to resolve the current political tensions between them.<\/p>\n

A primary focus of these mediated discussions will be the controversies surrounding the June 24 general elections and strategies to enhance peace between the ruling party and the opposition.It\u2019s worth noting that the APC previously rejected the June 24 election results, citing significant irregularities and breaches of electoral procedures. As a result, they opted out of participating in governance across various tiers, including the legislature and local councils.<\/p>\n

Supporters of the APC are now eagerly awaiting a potential re-run of the June 24 elections. On the other hand, supporters of the incumbent government are confident that there won\u2019t be another election, asserting that the results announced by the Chief Electoral Commissioner of the Electoral Commission for Sierra Leone (ECSL) will stand. They emphasize that the ECSL is an autonomous entity responsible for finalizing election outcomes.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, the people of Sierra Leone are hopeful that the mediation team will act in the best interests of the nation and its citizens.<\/p>\n
