    The Electoral Commission and the Management of Sierra Leone’s Electoral Process: An Introduction By Mohamed N. Conteh PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The book “The Electoral Commission and the Management of Sierra Leone’s Electoral Process: An introduction”, is an introduction to the history of Sierra Leone’s Electoral Management Body (EMB) called The Electoral Commission (EC) or National Electoral Commission (NEC), the country’s experiment with electoral democracy, starting from 1951, and related matters. These include the development of political parties and their role in the electoral process, the history of Sierra Leone’s elections, the history of the institution of chieftaincy and local government structures, as “grass root” governance institutions in the country; and the aspects involved in administering credible democratic elections in general. The book provides a detailed survey and readable account, in a single volume, on Sierra Leone’s historical, political and electoral developments from colonial days to the present day, using the most extensive research materials. This single volume thus presents the reader with the most up-to date and authoritative information on major aspects of Sierra Leone’s electoral process. The book is divided into two major parts: part one (1) deals with the historical context and general considerations on the country’s electoral process. It explores the historical, political and related electoral developments in Sierra Leone; particularly the development of political parties, the history of elections conducted in the country from 1951 to 2008 and the body responsible for conducting them (NEC). Traditional and Local governance structures related to the institution of Paramount Chieftaincy and Local Government, respectively, are also discussed in detail.

This is Captain (Paul Thomas), spokesman of the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council, AFRC. The government of Alhaji Ahmed Tejan Kabbah has been overthrown. In view of the above, the following should be adhered to with immediate effect, and all government ministers should report at Defense Headquarters. All foreign troops with particular reference to [words indistinct] should return to base and await further instructions. All borders -- land, air, and sea -- are closed until further notice. All commanders at the front must be in full control of their men. The Special Security Division, SSD, are required to take orders only from Defense Headquarters, and for operations of all security forces, it is a must. All senior military and police officers from the rank of lieutenant colonel to brigadier, and superintendent to inspector general should report at Defense Headquarters immediately. All local defense forces, kamajors, and [word indistinct] are disbanded with immediate effect and should surrender their weapons to the nearest military headquarters. Looting: This is an offense, and offenders will be shot on sight. I repeat. Looting: This is an offense, and offenders will be shot on sight. A dusk-to-dawn curfew has been imposed except officers and men on essential duty with specific identification. We are, therefore, appealing to the international community to show restraint, and the designated head of state will brief them in due course. Fellow citizens, no personal vendetta! The struggle is for us all! I thank you.
