The main opposition All People’s Congress (APC) former flagbearer candidate for the 2023 presidential election, Ms. Susan Bona, has filed in her resignation letter to the National Secretary General.

Ms. Susan Bona was on record as the first female candidate to declare for the highly male contested flagbearer race of the main opposition APC party along with Dr. Samura Kamara, Dr. Richard Konteh, Dr. Kaifala Marrah, Joseph Fitzgerald Kamara, Alfred Palo Conteh, Dr. Paul Almamy Bangura and others.

She revealed that since joining the party in 2011, she had been deeply committed to the vision of a Sierra Leone where equality prevails, inspired by initiatives such as the 30% quota for women and former President Ernest Bai Koroma’s vision of rebranding the APC, adding that her involvement had always been driven by a desire to contribute positively to the nation’s discourse and development.
