This is an eye opener for the Attorney General to raise a Reference Case with the Supreme Court for a proper interpretation of this DUAL CITIZENSHIP debacle!!
Dr Julius Spencer’s disingenuously accursed the APC That this DUAL CITIZEN problem is only being raised now as a target against the NGC. This is notwithstanding the fact that this issue has only recently been raised by Francis Gabbidon in October 2017 (as he watched a similar 116 year rule banning dual citizenship from Parliament in Australia wherein the Deputy Prime Minister was forced to vacate his job and Parliament) and more so, as Dr Spencer himself indicated, the 2006 Amendment Act under Tejan Kabba, following Peter Tucker Commission (Dr Spencer was a one time Minister of Information up to 2001 in the Tejan Kabba SLPP Government) ,THE 2006 Citizens Act did not receive any Presidential assent.
Dr Spencer’s disclosed that Dr Kandeh K Yumkella had DUAL CITIZENSHIP. He claimed that KKY has just renounced his USA citizenship in November 2017 even though the process of renunciation takes up to about six months. He emphasised that this information was 'kept quiet' from the public. Presidential Spokesman Mr Baratay in a phone call contribution denounced Dr Spencer’s claims and thanked him for disclosing/exposing that Dr Yumkella had USA Citizenship, a fact that was never know to the APC or Sierra Leoneans, until Dr Spencer so bracingly discloses this fact.
Ibrahim Tommy a Lawyer and Director for Centre for Accountability supported the premise that “THE LAW IS THE LAW” and must be obeyed. The fact that mistakes had been made in the past does not mean the mistake can continue!
Pa Momoh Fofanah insists the 2006 Citizens Act is an Act that Amended the 1991 Constitution but his former Lecturer Gabbidon, disagrees with him. He failed to point out and acknowledge that the 2006 ACT DID NOT RECEIVE KABBA’S PRESIDENTIAL ACCENT before he lost the 2007 elections - an amendment rushed in at the TAIL END of Tejan Kabba's SLPP Government.
President Koroma can even use the Executive Power under Section 59 (2) to remove a sitting Cabinet Minister who has DUAL Nationality (2Sims), from his post, as with the Deputy Primier of Australia (see below)
THIS ISSUE IS AN ISSUE FOR OUR SUPREME COURT’s INTERPRETATION.
