 Political Truth

 By Arthur .E. Pearce

Many people may want to say this but are afraid either for their daily advocation or their lives.

I think the sooner we say it and proffer solutions, the better for us as a nation. 

The inspirational prophecy in this write up clearly explains the reasons why government after government continue to fail in the discharge of their duties.

Allow me to predicate my hindsight into our governance citing what is expected from our government/leaders who have failed to realize or are forgetting that they are servants. 

When once they get into power, their first agenda is to move away from the people and begin to strategize tactically on how to win the next Election 🗳 and no sooner you begin to think about how to win the next Election, you now begin to Appoint Politicians instead of Professionals into offices, taking their eyes off of the servant hood to which they were voted and also hinge on the pay back time’ mentality for party loyalists even without any professional qualifications and experience to deliver.

And as such, governance is automatically twirls into ‘A compensation pyramid’.

This is when you now begin to have wrong appointments by the Powers that be as a result of who is now best to join the list of Cabinet Ministers and other strategic positions all in a bid to promote the campaign trail when the need arises instead of who can deliver on his Manifesto promises he made to the People.

That is when you see who will best control the Judiciary to protect my men instead of Equality & justice for all.

 You will now begin to engage in Mega Corruption to buy votes instead of providing Jobs for the People and improve their well-being.

You will now begin to have a Party Police Force instead of an independent Police Force whose mandate is to save lives and properties.

You will again begin to see the mere independence of state institutions who now become more partisan in supporting the rulling government.

 You will now begin to have a babysitting approach instead of a KPI Approach. 

You will now begin to see the awarding of contracts to party loyalists or those who supported them financially during elections instead of who is the best supplier with the correct financial and service delivery capabilities.

You will now begin to see the declining tendencies in the economy as bulk of the country's finances are wasted rapidly in the wrong way.

You will now begin to see all other sector in a standstill as if nothing is happening as they are busy planning to win the next elections.

You will begin to see the educational sector in a messy condition. 

Party loyalists will begin to buy degrees to retain their positions in government etc etc etc.

Why?

Listen!!

The Government wae get for beteh salone en the People den life na the government wae nor dae fraid for loss the Next election 🗳.

You can ask me why. 

Ponder 🤔

Look, Sierra Leoneans at home and abroad, until we decide to have that conversation seeking for a government of national unity with a sincere agenda for change and sustainability with a clear mandate of pushing away from tribalism and ensuring equality for all, then we will begin to see that we are moving as a nation where peace and development is assured.
