What is the SLPP cooking for 2012 ?
Published on August 18, 2010 by Cocorioko News · 10 Comments
Anybody who has been following up the commentaries and analyses in Sierra Leone’s online and print newspapers can definitely agree with those fearing that the opposition Sierra Leone People’s Party ( SLPP ) is not planning to accept defeat in the Presidential and Legislative Elections in 2012.
Just read the SLPP newspapers and listen to the comments of the main cast of the SLPP Propaganda machinery online and around the nation.You can hear it distinctly .You can see what they are getting at in your mind’s eye. The SLPP is not only desperate to return to power in 2012 but nothing other than victory for them will be accepted by the party when the elections results are announced .As a consequence of this resolve, if they get beaten fairly in 2012 they will not accept the defeat. For the SLPP, it is victory in 2012 or nothing, fair or foul . That is why they have started off by trying to destroy the credibility of the UN Secretary General ‘s Special Representative in Sierra Leone, Mr. Michael Von Shullenberg, the UN itself and the internationally -respected Elections Commissioner, Dr. Christiana Thorpe. The SLPP is cunningly disguising its plan by pretending that come what may the Sierra Leonean people will vote them back to power in 2012. They know the people won’t.
If what the SLPP is manifesting is hope , especially hope built on reality , it would not have been a matter of concern. After all, there is nothing wrong with being optimistic and all parties have a right to dream of winning . Also, Sierra Leone belongs to all Sierra Leoneans .There is nothing wrong with the SLPP winning an election in Sierra Leone. If the people of Sierra Leone decide that the SLPP is the party they want in power, there is nothing wrong with that. Power belongs to the people.
However , something is troubling about the way the SLPP is talking about returning to power in 2012. They are not manifesting hope. They are saying : “We will win, and we better do “. There is an unmistakable arrogance , cynicism and petulance in the way pro-SLPP newspapers and party actors speak that gives a clear indication that , come 2012, the SLPP will not be hoping to win the elections through the votes of the electorate. They know they are not going to win. If President Koroma maintains his pace of bringing developments to the country and those ministers that are underperforming are fired or they buck up and discover their rightful places in the jigsaw of governance , President Koroma will earn a second term from the people of Sierra Leone. President Koroma, in the face of all the mounting problems associated with governance in a post-war country he inherited battered and destroyed , has not performed in any way that will make him only a one term President. The people of Sierra Leone may be complaining about some problems here and there but they are reasonable. If they continue to see that President Koroma has a genuine desire to change the country for the better, despite their complaints they will vote on the side of caution and give preference to a President who is showing results than an angel from a failed party that was in power for 11 years and have nothing to show by way of socio-economic developments for their years in control . Thus , the SLPP knows that they do not have the ability or capacity to beat President Koroma in 2012.
What any sensible person can see is that the SLPP is planning to return to power through a familiar route —through a carefully planned and contrived plot to provoke spectacular chaos in the country that will prompt the intervention of the International Community . With the International Community desiring to see peace in Sierra Leone , the SLPP believes that the comity of nations will advocate for a coalition government to break any impasse they might create , or if they get carried away by the SLPP subterfuge, the International Community might promote a regime change. Sierra Leeoneans must not forget. SLPP partisans are not only bad losers . They have that deceptive and cunning knack to create chaos, exploit it to generate sympathy and deflect blame for whatever chaos they wreck to the opposing side.
Take a close look at 1967. But for the valiant efforts of gallant soldiers like Majors Charles Blake, S.B. Jumu and Bockarie Kai-Samba , the SLPP would have cunningly subverted the verdict of the people of Sierra Leone . Realizing that the All People’s Congress ( APC ) , led by the then heavyweights Siaka Stevens, S.I. Koroma, C.A. Camara-Taylor, Ibrahim Bash-Taqi , Mohamed Bash-Taqi, Bangalie Mansaray, S.A.T Koroma, S.I Kanu etc.etc. had clearly won the General Elections , the SLPP cleverly connived with the Force Commander of the Sierra Leone Army, Brig. David Lansana , to seize power . The excuse they cleverly tried to make the army use was that tribal passions had become so uncontrollable that the soldiers , the so-called custodians of the state, were compelled to take control of the country to stop her from plunging into Civil War. You know that in those days because Sierra Leoneans had not tasted war, there was nothing they feared more than war.The average Sierra Leonean would run home and hide under his bed at the sound of a gun. The people would have been taken in to Brig. Lansana’s lies that he took over to save the country from going to war.
This coup would have then benefitted the SLPP in many ways. Firstly, it would have prevented their nemesis, the APC, from deservingly coming to power. Secondly, because Brig. Lansana was the brother-in-law of the Prime Minister ,Sir Albert Margai, a puppet army government that owed its allegiance to the SLPP would have held on to power during which time it would have framed and incarcerated all the key players of the APC or executed them as the other pro-SLPP military junta, the NPRC , did to Bambay Kamara, Kawuta Dumbuya, Salami Coker and others. Then it would have called for fresh elections which the SLPP would have then easily won and returned to power.That was the SLPP’s script in 1967 , but thankfully, the young majors smelt the rat and moved swiftly to stage a counter-coup against Lansana even before he started executing the plan.
Take another close look at another year , 1992. The SLPP succeeded this time. SLPP operatives John Benjamin, Maada Bio , Tom Nyuma, S. A. J Musa, Komba Kambo and others instigated a military coup against the then APC Government led by the late President Joseph Momoh. They preferred not to wait for the ballot box, even though the former President had impressively laid the groundwork for a return to multi-party democracy, with political parties being formed and over 100 newspapers operating in the country. They used the excuse that the government was not prosecuting the war against the rebels and had in fact failed to provide them arms and logistics. As soon as the army took over, SLPP print dresses with the photos of Sir Milton Margai and the SLPP emblem started to be sold all over the country. It was a sign that the next goovernment after the soldiers would be the SLPP. The NPRC Coup was a pro-SLPP coup. That was why the soldiers framed and executed top APC operatives like Bambay Kamara and others. As we have now seen, most of the major players in the army putsch that sent the old APC Government packing are now key SLPP functionaries and two of them–Maada Bio (Who overthrew the substantive coup-leader Valentine Strasser because he was not going according to the script ) and John Benjamin are going to vie for the Presidency under the SLPP banner ( Don’t be fooled by Benjamin’s denials: It is all a political gimmick ) . As Head of State ,Maada Bio contrived to rig the 1996 General Elections on behalf of the SLPP, cheating the octogenarian politician, Dr. John Karefa-Smart ,who was the real winner, and handing power to SLPP’s Ahmad Tejan Kabbah.
Any sensible person who studies 1967, 1992 and 1996 well will not need anybody to expose how the SLPP plans to return to power in 2012. All the foolish and asanine claims in pro-SLPP newspapers that President Koroma is only outdooring SLPP projects; all the silly complaints that Christiana Thorpe cheated the SLPP in the 2007 elections ( Though the international community and international elections obsevers and Sierra Leoneans saw it differently as perhaps the best and most free and fair elections ever staged in Africa ) ; all the failed attempts to provoke President Koroma to react to all the undeserved defamation and character-assassination as well as prying into his marriage so that when he takes action he will be demonized; all the crazy slogans about Sharp 12 2012 back to power ; all the insane claims about Christiana Thorpe not being accepted to serve a second time as Elections Commissioner; all those unproved allegations about APC activists raping women at SLPP party headquarters, all the propaganda, all the ‘waving of the bloody shirt’ and false complaints about thuggery and nonsensical accusations all have a common design—To fracture, disunite, outrage, confuse and polarise the society in preparation for 2012 , when after President Koroma would have beaten their candidate, the SLPP will refuse to accept defeat , stir public disorder , loot and burn cities , kill innocent people and force the international community to intervene. Because of new concepts in the International Community , like R2P (Responsibility of states to protect people within their borders ) ,the SLPP knows that when they accomplish their goal to create chaos, bedlam and mayhem , with attendant killings of innocent people, the government will come in for chastening from the International Community. The International Community will accuse the government that it did not protect the people. This will be to the liking of the SLPP,who will then exploit it to force a government of national unity that they will further exploit to eventually return to power.
This is why some of us are kindly appealing to the government not to overreact to any provocation from the opposition . It is all a plan to provoke the government to act so that when it does the SLPP provocateurs can turn around and say to the people with cynical alacrity : “Didn’t we tell you so ? Didn’t we say they were undemocratic and dictatorial ? Are these the people you want to vote back in power in 2012 ? ”. The government must go all out to avoid playing itself into the hands of the devious game plan of the SLPP. In life, we must learn to ignore our detractors. WHEN WE DON’T, WE PROVIDE THEM A PLATFORM TO TAKE CHARGE, ENJOY THE SPOTLIGHT AND DICTATE PROCEEDINGS.

The government must always have at the back of its mind that the SLPP has the International Community in its plans. They are doing this because they know how the International Community reasons today in its determination to see peace and stability in failed states.
Sierra Leoneans know that President Koroma is doing a splendid job. Hardly anybody leaves the diaspora to visit Sierra Leone without returning with some good news about developments going on in the country. The economic problems , which you find anywhere you go on the globe , are there but one thing that visitors to Sierra Leone will not fail to tell you is that President Koroma is springing many impressive developments in the country. Now there is light in the capital. Cleaning crews have turned Freetown into one of the cleanest cities in West Africa. President Koroma’s road construction projects are turning Sierra Leone into a modern state. The government has kickstarted mining activities in the country and jobs will soon be available for thousands of people, including youths. The government must pay attention to the good work it is doing and leave the opposition to its own wiles. Nothing the opposition is writing or saying about President Koroma will count if the government continues to seek the welfare of the people and performs better than the SLPP did the last time it was in power. As President Koroma said in Moyamba at the weekend, his achievements will bear witness for him during the 2012 elections. And if this is the case, victory is certain in 2012.The plans and schemes of the SLPP will come to nought.

Take heart my brother, don’t panic. The SLPP you used to take for granted is no longer the SLPP that is today. SLPP has come of age to say NO MORE WERE WE GOING TO ALLOW THE APC WRECK THE DESTINY OF SIERRA LEONE. Our people have sufferred a lot in the hands of a highly tribalised, regionalised and dictatorial regime of the APC. Never will we allow the International Community or whatever they call themselves to sway our thoughts from the reality that the 2007 election was rigged in your favour. This explains why the government is still, less self-confident, ‘panicky’ and views everyone that is critical about them to be a Mende. As a credible party (SLPP) we refuse and continue to reject any attempt by the APC to take Sierra Leone on undemocratic paths. Whether you like it or not, the 2012 election has to be palyed out on a free and fair ground. We woun’t stop till this is assurred. Our position is clear and we stand by it. If this worries the APC because of their dictatorial tradition, you go to hell! but we can’t wait any more. We continue to re-echo that no more shall we sit by and accept you force your will on us. Just as we resisted the APC in the guise of the AFRC, we shall not stop at anything to do so again. So whatever strategy you have in mind, my advice is – you better think twice.Lonta!
Bob Junisa, your angry response has shown that the article is saying the truth. What do you mean by “We continue to re-echo that no more shall we sit by and accept you force your will on us. Just as we resisted the APC in the guise of the AFRC, we shall not stop at anything to do so again? “. Are you saying that if the APC wins the elections , you will not accept it because it will be forcing its will on you ? Your very angry tone gives me the impression that the article touched a nerve. It could be really true that SLPP is not planning to accept defeat in 2012. What a shame.
I am an SLPP supporter.I think that instead of getting angry and threatening chaos Mr. Junisa should have tried to address the allegations . When you threaten to cause confusion, it shows that what the APC is saying is true. The WE YONE newspaper carried the same story yesterday by saying that “the opposition SLPP’s ploy to reject the 2010 elections result and untimely plunge this nation into political chaos. The fact is all indications point to a possible landslide victory by President Koroma and the APC come 2010.” This means that people among our midst are giving signals that we will not accept defeat in 2012.
I think the answer to this concern is that the SLPP is not planning to reject the results of 2012. If we lose, we will accept that it is the verdict of the people. The SLPP is a democratic party.The SLPP believes in the rule of law.
Well, well, well, Bob Junisa’s rant is just proving how desperate the SLPP party is to return to power in 2012. It is utterly sad and pathetic that these folks are still crying about an election that was judged free and fair by the international community. Christiana Thorpe was appointed by your party Bob and the only reason the SLPP was opposed to her re-appointment is because she refused to rig the elections in your favor. Some of us know that you were to cause havoc in 2007 had it not been for the timely intervention of Pa Kabbah to quell any such attempts. If you folks think you can create another civil war in that country, you better think otherwise, because patriotic Sierra Leoneans will never again allow mama salone to fall down that path. You lost fair and square in 1967 and in 2007. Move on and don’t be the sore losers that most of us are starting to believe that you are.
We pray fot God’s protection for our people and our country. Any body who is a true citizen of sierra leone he/she will not pray for chaos again in our belove country sierra leone, we stand against that and we pray for any body who have that plan not to succed. We know what has past during athe eleven years war in our country. Only a fool that will want that to happen again in our country.GOD GUIDE THE LEADERS AND PEOPLE OF SIERRA LEONE;
Are tribe and political affiliations so critical that Sierra Leoneans are willing to risk another civil war? Remember,international organizations are becoming donor fatigued.We may have to go it alone next time around,so stop the foolishness.
MAY THE BLESSING OF GOD BE WITH OUR PEOPLE AND OUR BELOVE COUNTRY SIERRA LEONE. Any body who is planig another chaos in our country, THOSE PEOPLE WILL NOT SUCCEED. only a fool that will want our country to go back were it come from. We all know what has happen during the eleven years war in our country. We pray that God will guide our leaders and give them wishdom to develope our country and to protect our people from going back in those days. GOD BLESS THE PRESIDENT AND THE PEOPLE OF SIERRA LEONE. GO ON MR PRESIDENT WE ONLY NEED DEVELOPMENT NOT BACKWARDNESS. THOSE WHO ARE PRAYING FOR CHAOS IN 2012 ELECION LET THED PLAN IT THEN THEY WILL SEE WHAT GOD WILL DO TO THEM. OUR NATION IS BLESS NO BODY WILL DO BAD THINGS THERE AGAIN.
It amazes me that Sierra Leone still has the likes of Samba, James, Foday, and Alfred who cannot comprehend the logic of simple english. So from all that i wrote, this is all you could understand? If i can clarify my points (with great pains for your level), i am totally opposed to what the author’s assertions. All that is said here is entirely nonsensical to say the least. You guyz will never have a second term because like your government, everything that you’ve wasted the three years doing is mere propaganda which can no longer work. You think Sierra Leoneans are any more stupid? You better think twice. We are prepared to resist to the fullest, any of the foul plans that you have for 2012. Whats wrong playing the game by democratic principles? What’s wrong governing Sierra Leone inclusively? Your government has tribalised everything and think people are crazy? Much as we can’t afford to have another war in Sierra Leone, we can’t also allow any ill-natured set of persons to impose themselves on us. You squandered the opportunity of uniting the country and so you have only yourself to blame.
junisa, with the Harvard English which your country men can’t understood. Get this clear come 2012 there is nothing I MEAN NOTHING SLPP can do if they lose that election. I bet you . Your leaders if they dare let them try creating chaos or anarchy as you continue to preach . So do not for one second think just because the people of Sierra Leone are allowing your types to rant arrogance they will fear your attack . Bring it clean or dirty we will surely match it . The pot is calling the kettle black . When SLPP was in power there was mendeism allover the place. As educated as you are what I was expecting your likes to do is to remind us, the developments SLPP left behind when they were in power for 11 years . I visited Sierra Leone throughout that period. So counter APC ‘S bluff with your party’s developments during there reign . This is why APC will always triumph because it produces practical result and it belong to the ordinary people . It is not an executive club wherein only people from Harvard, oxford share the inner rooms and they say we know it all. You talk about unity tell us what your party did to unite the people of Sierra Leone . In my adult life I have never seen bad losers like SLPP. Its about 4 years now they are still ranting .I repeat again there is nothing SLPP will do if they lose 2012 free and fairly. So we are on the ground stop the noise.Yet you are free to continue bla bla…. ing
Ha, ha, ha, Bob Junisa I hate to bust your chops doc, but come 2012 Ernest Bai Koroma will get re-elected because he is the most progressive leader Sierra Leone leader salone has ever had in my lifetime to date. I would put him the same category as Milton Margai, because though I was yet to be born when he was Prime minister, I have heard good things about him. Do you really think Sierra Leoneans are that gullible to vote for a party that was corrupt, inept and lazy during their 11 years in power? What meaningful deveopment project can they have to boast of during all those years they were in power? All the projects they supposedly started stalled because they they used all the donor money to fatten their bank accounts. I am sick and tired of the tribalism card that you guys continually try to play. But then again, that’s the only card you can play because you can see how the AGENDA FOR CHANGE is actually making a difference in mama salone. Ernest is on a roll baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
