The Gambian leader President Adama Barrow has urged Gambians to unite and denounce division, as he announced a massive development after December poll.
Speaking to hundreds of his supporters at the presidency Saturday, President Adama Barrow said he is hopeful of victory on 4th December election and urged Gambians to always embrace peace and unity among themselves.
“It is strong people who are supporting this party. He then laughed that certain parties have no confidence in themselves.
“We have nowhere other than The Gambia. Therefore, we will do anything possible to develop The Gambia, and we will make sure The Gambia progresses,” he told the congregation at State House in Banjul.
Talking in parable, he said “A wrestler who doesn’t trust himself talks a lot and instigate conflict. He doesn’t want the bout to happen. They don’t want on the 4th of December to happen; all they want is chaos. The revising court is coming and they are the only ones who will go there. You will not see NPP there we will not take anyone there, because we trust ourselves.”
However, he strongly warned against violence and division in the country, adding that the powers that were there are still available for enforcement, but that he doesn’t want to use them “because it will benefit none of us.”
“Sometimes they tell me, Mr President you are too calm and quiet, you don’t do this and that. But the power that was here is still here, it has not gone anywhere. But showing off power will not benefit you and it will benefit the country. The power is here and we can use it,” he reminded them.
