The Ohio APC-NA Convention is now history – let’s support Chairman Al-Aziz Turay’s political ideologies and move on

Politics is a game of a win/win situation. The APC-NA Ohio convention is gone, the people had spoken and it’s about time that we should throw our political support to our National Executives, political leaders and move on. Take a look at this scenario as politician who after a hard working day in a Shipping Company or in an Assembly Line Factory for the whole day, and then come home, ready to drop from fatigue, and fall hopelessly on your sofa in front of the TV. Mechanically you take the remote control and check your six hundred channels for news or something interesting to lift your spirit up. (Photo: Ohio Pres, Fmr. Chrmn. Osman & Chairman –Elect Al-Aziz Turay)

On one of this favorite channels, there is a news sequence and a good-looking news reporter who was explaining a current situation. In this news, there is a strike somewhere in your neighborhood; you could hardly drive through the crowd. They want a wages raise or more suitable working conditions or something else. Though your daily problems have to be the top priority for you, but you still think about what is going on in your community.

A crowd on the TV screen disappears and instantaneously, you see a clean-shaved face of some spokesman or politician commenting on the situation. His words are very considerate, carefully chosen and pleasant to hear, though his explanation of the problem is quite contradictory and paradoxical.  Against your will in looking at this TV, you personally become involved in what he says, you almost believe him and ready to think of those on the streets as idiots, but another picture appears.

An angry policeman tries to make people leave the street. Not as pleasant as the face of a spokesman. You turn the TV off and go to the kitchen to have a break and get your thoughts together. You just had a lesson of politics and obviously its ways are not to your taste or likings at all. The democratic principles of our political leaders in the North America politics are at work. Now we are quite satisfied with the election results, our lives and we sometimes don’t think about anything else but our egocentric ideologies. During this election, the delegates spoke loud and clear. And democratically we have a new chairman, case closed and let’s move on.

Politics or dirty political games are common, if it doesn’t harm you, why should you be concerned? We peacefully sit in our respective chapters, bragging about things that are never for real and playing with our children in our living rooms. But this is until elections come about. Then you forget about your talking and bragging and you then go into the anxiety of what is going on. Your head almost explodes because of the amount of information.

Three weeks before the Ohio Convention, every day we saw the APC Worldwide Forum was full of political debates and read interesting articles from different authors. You imagine the political opulence that was spent on all those supporters and its meaning, makes you forget about your civil duty of your country. As a concerned citizen you care about the leaders and political parties within the power in your country – Sierra Leone. And you behave like a concerned citizen by reading articles and the APC Worldwide Forum, study candidates’ biography and contributions, listen to their plans during their campaigns and think: who will be the best to lead us. The truth is, not all of them will meet your requirements except the Arizona President – AL-AZIZ TURAY, and for everything you hear from him is the truth.

A political POWER is a strong drug that will get you addicted to. This can probably be one of the most truthful statements that you hear from others during elections. To get a political power, one must be ready to do almost anything to get it. Dirty games and backbiting, bickering and so on, is a common thing. Blackmailing, cheating, overuse of the APC-NA byelaws happens on every step of the political career ladder. No one knows about dirty facts of one’s life until elections come. Nowadays in electioneering campaign, once a politician comes out public and declare him/herself as a candidate, his/her voters can get to know everything about him/her, including the size of his/her living room and bedroom. But again this is quite usual.

Moreover God prevent you from messing with one of the famous names in the APC-NA – AL-AZIZ TURAY. You won’t be able to look around when you’ll be left without anything, friends and hope for the better future. No matter how democratic elections are, you still can be sure that dirty games are involved. If you are still faithful to your national leader or candidate, well that is very good, but sooner or later you’ll stop believing in nobility of his intentions and if after a series of tries to label your leader as one you still believe in, then you must be a real patriot and loyalist. So let’s cut off our political bickering, stay unified and work as a team to better our country, our political leaders and our newly elected chairman – ALHASSAN AZIZ TURAY.
