In a significant development, the National Reform Movement (NRM), a faction associated with the All People's Congress (APC), has officially expressed its disagreement with the party's decision to boycott government activities. Renowned for its progressive stance and commitment to reform, the NRM strongly criticized the lack of vision and leadership demonstrated by the party chairman and other members of the National Advisory Committee (NAC).
Amid escalating tensions within the APC, the United States Ambassador to Sierra Leone has urged the party to refrain from boycotting the government. Echoing this sentiment, the NRM emphasizes its unwavering dedication to serving the people and advancing their interests. The movement calls upon all elected members of parliament to fulfil their responsibilities by attending parliamentary sessions and upholding their oath of office. It highlights the utmost importance of prioritizing the needs of the constituents who entrusted them with their votes and actively participating in the legislative process. The NRM extends this message to all mayors and councilors as well, urging them to remain steadfast in their service to the people.
While the APC experiences internal divisions, the NRM appeals to party members and the general public to remain composed and confident. It assures them that the movement remains resolute in its commitment to the well-being of party members. The NRM firmly believes that engaging with the government is the key to effecting positive change, emphasizing the significance of dialogue and collaboration over boycotts and disengagement.
Furthermore, the NRM encourages party members to actively engage in scheduled meetings, which provide platforms for strategic planning and charting the way forward. These gatherings serve as opportunities for members to unite, deliberate, and shape the future direction of the APC.
The National Reform Movement (NRM) is a progressive faction within the All People's Congress (APC) that is dedicated to promoting reform, inclusivity, and transparency within the party. Its central mission is to strengthen democratic values, enhance good governance, and advance the overall well-being of the Sierra Leonean people.
