The interim party leader of Alliance for patriotic re-orientation and construction APRC has warned the European Union (EU) to desist from any internal affairs of the country.
Fabakary Tombong Jatta was speaking to reporters on Thursday after the presentation of petition letter to the African Commission on Human and People’s Rights following an organized mass protest by the party to demand the alleged signed accord for the return of former President Yayah Jammeh.
“The EU has to immediately desist from the Gambia’s internal affairs because we are a sovereign state and this is even an internal issue. Who will go to Europe and want to interfere into their country’s internal affair or tell them what to do of course no one can do that. So the European Union has to stop interfering in national affairs.
Yes we have evidence on their interference, because any time we held a rally the EU representative to the Gambia will comment negative about us and this only our concern as a country which we resolve and move forward as one people.”
“We also have does internally pressure groups who did want us to be given a permit to protest and these are the victim center and one Madi Jobateh we are telling them to do. Let us make it clear they do not belief in APRC and see us as vicious that is fine let them take their ideas but let them know that we cannot be shaken by them.” He said
He said the presentation of petition letters to various Regional and United Nation bodies by the APRC party is to remind them of the allege signed accord for the return of former president which he said must be implemented as possible.
“We have written to several times to the various regional bodies reminding them of the agreed accord signed between ECOWAS and former President for the time of his return,”he said.
