The Office of the President wishes the Truth Reconciliation and Reparation Commission (TRRC) fruitful proceedings as it begins its first sitting yesterday.
As a key pillar of the transitional justice program of the Barrow administration, it is an important milestone in our collective quest to seek the truth, ensure justice and reconcile our differences as a nation.
By all accounts, it is a historic journey that will undoubtedly help the country’s cause to document the full extent and true account of human rights violations and other unspeakable atrocities of the former regime in the past 22 years. Establishing the truth is as important as ensuring justice and reconciliation.
In this regard, the government, under the leadership of President Barrow, shall continue to support this transitional justice mechanism.
