According to Reverend Jesse Forna, the National Secretary General of the Council, their team was at the APC party office to hear firsthand concerns of the APC party on the June 24, 2023 elections, which, they believe can better guide them as they work towards finding ways of solving the current political impasse in the country. Reverend Forna also informed the leadership of APC that their organisation has met with other institutions such as the Office of National Security (ONS) and the Elections Commission Sierra Leone (ECSL) and that it was important for them to hear from the APC.

The meeting, according to him is part of a wider consultation they are having with stakeholders across the country and not a negotiation on the current position of the party, relating to the non-participation in governance. The party’s National Executive Headed by The National Chairman Alhajie Minkailu Mansaray and Deputy National Chairman Amb Alhaji Osman Foday Yansaneh even welcomed the IRCSL delegation, yet has maintained its position on the current impasse.
