Faley was the APC nominee for Parliament in Constituency 7 in Kailahun District in the 2012 Sierra Leone Parliamentary election. He had received the endorsement of Sierra Leone President and APC leader, Ernest Bai Koroma, and the two have campaigned together in Segbwema. Despite being endorsed by President Koroma, Faley lost his re-election bid in a landslide to the main opposition SLPP candidate Abu Jajua who received 77.78%, to Faley's 21.44%[1].
