The All People’s Congress (APC) is a party rooted in loyalty, service, and sacrifice, and one woman who embodies these values is Madam Baby-Hajj Jeng.
A dedicated and unwavering member of the party, Mrs. Jeng has long been recognised as a true daughter of the APC, one who is both unshakeable and unmoveable in her commitment to its growth and success. Now, as she contests for the position of APC-USA District Vice Chairperson, supporters believe her election would mark a turning point for the party’s development both in the diaspora and at home.
Madam Jeng has consistently demonstrated the qualities of a virtuous leader. She is widely respected as a God-fearing woman whose humility and deep respect for elders, as well as her connection to young people, have won her admiration across the political spectrum. Her ability to bridge generational gaps within the APC family makes her a candidate capable of fostering unity, inclusivity, and collective progress.
Beyond her faith and values, Mrs. Jeng is known for her generosity and compassion. She has always extended a helping hand to people in need, regardless of whether they are political allies or not. This open-hearted nature has endeared her to countless Sierra Leoneans, reinforcing the belief that leadership is not about privilege but about service. For many within the APC, she represents the rare blend of firmness and kindness that is essential for guiding the party through its next phase of growth.
Her sacrifices for the APC are well documented. Madam Jeng has contributed to the party both at home and abroad, working tirelessly to ensure that the APC remains relevant and strong in the face of challenges. In the diaspora, she has become a household name, recognised for her dedication and the countless hours she has invested in promoting the party’s vision. At the same time, her connection to Sierra Leone remains unbroken, as she continues to champion initiatives that directly benefit communities on the ground.
Supporters believe that electing Madam Jeng as the first woman to serve as APC-USA District Vice Chairperson would not only be a historic milestone but also a symbol of progress for the party. Her candidacy reflects the APC’s commitment to empowering women and recognising the vital role they play in leadership and decision-making. By voting for her, members would be embracing a future where women’s contributions are given the recognition they deserve, and where the APC stands as a beacon of inclusivity and growth.
Those close to her describe her as an embodiment of strength and reliability. She does not waver in times of difficulty, and she does not compromise on her principles. This resilience, combined with her proven record of service, positions her as the ideal leader to support the APC-USA District Chairperson in driving the party forward.
As the APC-USA District prepares for this important election, members have a unique opportunity to make history. Casting their votes for Madam Baby-Hajj Jeng is not just about electing a leader—it is about entrusting the party’s future to someone who has lived and breathed APC values, who has sacrificed selflessly, and who has earned the respect of members both at home and in the diaspora.
In the words of her supporters, voting for her would be ‘a tremendous thing for the general membership of the APC-USA District and the entire APC family.’
