Former All People’s Congress Party (APC) Minister of Social Welfare, Gender and Children’s Affairs Alhaji MoiJueh Kaikai, is set to make an open declaration for the Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP), and also endorse the re-election of President Julius Maada Bio in the June 24th elections without run-off.
This much anticipated declaration will take place in Pujehun Town on Saturday 1st April 2023, during President Bio’s walking visit across chiefdoms in the district.
The return of Alhaji Moijueh Kaikai to the Sierra Leone People’s Party, and also pledging to be part of the historic re-election of President Bio has been commendable. Alhaji Moijueh Kaikai said there is no better time to join the SLPP than now due to the rapid increase of President Bio’s developmental imprints across Sierra Leone.
Moijueh Kaikai has been dubbed as one of the best and finest politicians in Pujehun District.
Alhaji Moijueh Kaikai was a member of the then-Ernest Bai Koroma-led government from 2007-2018. He served as the Resident Minister of South, former Deputy Minister of Labour and Minister of Social Welfare Gender and Children’s Affairs.
Alhaji Moijueh Kaikai was the longest-serving Social Welfare Gender and Children’s Affairs Minister till he was set up by his deputy, Mohamed Bai Attilla which precipitated his skewed dismissal. He also served as the Organizing Secretary for the All People’s Congress (APC) till his thoughtful and timely resignation from the APC Party in 2019.
Alhaji Moijueh Kaikai has gone through so much ill-treatment in terms of leadership as a result of joining APC. He later resigned from active politics, but as a man who admires development, improvement, progress and betterment, got the reasoning power to join the most developmental and progressive political party in Sierra Leone, the Sierra Leone People’s Party.
Taking into cognizance of President Bio’s admittable, enviable and internationally acclaimed leadership, charisma and people-centeredness, gave the momentous urge to Alhaji Moijueh Kaikai in pinning his indefatigable support and loyalty towards President Bio’s re-election without run-off.
