Freetown, June 2, 2026: The Chairman of the Western Area Rural District Council, Kasho Joseph Holland-Cole, has expressed confidence in the All People’s Congress (APC) Party’s ability to drive Sierra Leone’s development agenda, describing it as the only political organization with the experience, structure, and track record to move the country forward.
In a statement posted on his official Facebook page on Tuesday, Holland-Cole said Sierra Leoneans recognize the APC’s capacity to deliver tangible progress based on its past achievements. “When the people of this country look at the development trajectory, they see evidence that convinces them that the APC has the capacity to deliver the much-needed development,” he wrote.
He added that many citizens view the upcoming 2028 general elections not merely as another political contest but as an opportunity for the APC to return to power and continue what supporters describe as a vision for national development.
During its previous administrations, the APC government implemented several major infrastructure projects that reshaped Sierra Leone’s urban and rural landscape. Key accomplishments included the expansion of national road networks such as the Wellington–Masiaka Highway, the construction of bridges and feeder roads linking provincial towns, and the rehabilitation of Freetown’s electricity grid.
The party also oversaw improvements in water supply systems and the modernization of port facilities, which contributed to increased trade and connectivity. There is also a marked improvement in enrollment in primary and secondary education, with a significant improvement in quality and standards.
