In a highly-anticipated event, the results of the Village Heads Election are set to be unveiled tomorrow, Thursday, November 2nd, 2023.
This pivotal election, conducted by the Electoral Commission of Sierra Leone (ECSL), took place amidst a largely conducive atmosphere, despite a few incidents in some areas.
One of the most striking aspects of this election was the removal of several incumbent Village Headmen due to reported irregularities, with young replacements stepping in to fulfill the roles. The sentiment of the people resonated throughout the electoral process, with voters prioritizing development over personal interests, setting an important precedent for future general elections.
Residents of Cole Town Village expressed their satisfaction with the extensive support for development and economic transformation, as both political parties and other stakeholders came together to vote for the betterment of their community. In light of this unity, they are now determined to take charge of their village, particularly by actively supporting community development initiatives.
Furthermore, the community strongly condemned any acts of violence and urged their fellow citizens to endorse Sullay Kamara, also known as Ajazy, for his exceptional performance during his tenure as Deputy Head under the leadership of his former boss, the late Sokie, who was widely regarded as the father of Cole Town, known for numerous developmental achievements.
A significant majority of Cole Town Village residents cast their votes in favor of Ajazy, emphasizing his exemplary leadership qualities and contributions to the development of the village in various ways. In contrast, his opponent was criticized for focusing on private investments at the expense of addressing other essential community needs.
The election results to be disclosed tomorrow will undoubtedly hold significant implications for the future of Cole Town and beyond. Stay tuned for updates on this important development.
