During the 2015 election campaign i warned about the wild excursion that the AFC was on with the PNC. I knew that upon coming to power the AFC would not have real say in the coalition government. The AFC was made up of two factions. The Trotman faction came from the PNC and the other one from the PPP. The Trotman faction who idolizes Forbes Burnham dominated the party after the elections and subjugated the PPP faction. The threat and erosion of democracy quickly started within the coalition which led to resignations and a no-confidence vote. The AFC lost its footing in the government and consequently their supporters. The PNC sent the AFC into local government elections to test out what support they have and the results showed that the third force is no longer popular based on their very poor performance. The PNC decided that the cannot take a chance with them to win the next general election. They quickly began working on a strategy of limited rigging to pull off a victory.
