Africa-Press – Sierra-Leone. <\/strong><\/span>Dr. Sylvia Olayinka Blyden has taken to Facebook to accuse the All People\u2019s Congress (APC) Party\u2019s Mayoral candidate, Yvonne Aki-Sawyer, and Presidential candidate, Dr. Samura Kamara, of failing to provide the RRF election forms for the recently concluded June 23, 2023, General Elections.<\/p>\n

In her post, Blyden alleged, \u201cYvonne Aki-Sawyer cannot produce mayoral election RRF forms nor tallied results for Freetown\u2019s polling stations. Is it because she has a criminal court case on her head?\u201d She suggested that the inability to provide these results could be linked to ongoing legal issues faced by Aki-Sawyer.<\/p>\n

Blyden extended her accusations to Dr. Samura Kamara, stating that he too could not provide the RRF forms for the presidential election results from Freetown\u2019s polling stations. \u201cDr. Samura Kamara cannot produce presidential election RRF forms or tallied results for even Freetown\u2019s polling stations. Is it because he has a criminal case on his head?\u201d she questioned.<\/p>\n

The post has sparked considerable debate, with varied reactions from the public. Some comments supported Blyden\u2019s claims, while others defended the APC candidates.<\/p>\n

Following the elections, Aki-Sawyer posted videos on her Facebook page showing RRF forms she claimed were collected from polling stations after voting. Blyden\u2019s recent accusations appear to directly challenge the authenticity and completeness of these claims.<\/p>\n

Concluding her post, Blyden emphasized the importance of providing these forms as evidence in any challenge to the election results. \u201cYou cannot be challenging election results all this while and can\u2019t provide an important evidence that could lay down the entire case to rest,\u201d she asserted.<\/p>\n
