While various support groups were singing songs of support for the parliamentary aspirants, Konte stood high from the crowd as supporters showered praises on him for the good work he has been doing for his people.
Even residents that are not supporting the APC made very complimentary comments about me, as they argue that he is always with his people even in the toughest of times.
Residents cited the leading role Momoh Konte played during the Ebola scourge, with several converts to the APC citing his intervention during that period as the rationale for joining his party.
All the APC parliamentary aspirants in that part of the country successfully went through the nomination process, while the city was literally painted red.
