\u201cThe unity displayed last night is a clear demonstration of our readiness, cohesion, and shared focus as we look toward the 2028 presidential elections,\u201d<\/em> the First Lady wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She issued a direct appeal to the party\u2019s base to resolve any internal conflicts that could threaten their political stronghold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTo my fellow SLPP members, let us remain united, bury the hatchet, and refrain from holding on to past grievances,\u201d<\/em> she urged. Framing this solidarity as an impenetrable defense, she added, \u201cOur strength lies in our togetherness, and as long as we stand united, no opposition can prevail.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The First Lady concluded her message by rallying supporters around the party\u2019s enduring national mantra: \u201cOne People, One Country.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SLPP Celebrates 75th Anniversary in Grand Style\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Sierra Leone People\u2019s Party (SLPP) celebrated its 75th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee, marking its status as one of Sub-Saharan Africa\u2019s oldest political parties with a firm call for internal cohesion ahead of the 2028 presidential elections.
