Waa #Social Gambia, Asalamu alaikum wa Rahmatullah.
It’s been a while since I made any post here on our magical bantaba called Facebook. I missed you all but now I am Back.
I stayed away for the past days because I knew the decision I took has created an emotional outburst both positive and negative.
I did not want to make any irrational reaction to posts and comments and that is why I remained mute to protect my relationship with people.
Thank you for all the reactions both positive and negative because it all added up to create one big statement…
Coming to the matter at hand, I took a decision to join the National Peoples Party and that was, perhaps, the most difficult decision I ever took in my life.
The decision was not made #against any individual or group.
This decision was made pro #Gambia
I left a political party to join another one.
The party I belonged to for the past few years is a party that I honour and respect and that respect will forever remain unchanged.
My relationship with the leader of the UDP, His Excellency Alhagie Ousainou Darboe was a special one. My love and respect for him will forever remain untainted inshaa Allah. I am no longer a member of his party but I do know that I will forever remain his son.
The great Lawyer will forever be remembered as the one man who has had the greatest impact on my political career so far.
I have moved on in my politics and all my skills and energy in that sphere will henceforth be deployed in favor of His Excellency President Adama Barrow and the NPP.
I am most profoundly grateful to President Barrow and his family for their patience and tolerance. I am indeed eternally indebted to President Barrow for accepting me into his party with great honour.
Given the obvious antecedents in the political arena, I am firmly convinced that President Barrow is imbued with a spirit of tolerance and inclusivity. It is my fervent belief that if we help the President he can reconcile this country and put The Gambia on a solid pedestal for unprecedented socio-economic growth and development underpinned by peace love and unity in a healthy democratic space.
Work starts now and I will soon embark on a journey to visit every nook and cranny of this country to mobilize support for the NPP and the President’s development agenda in a way and manner that will be the envy of the greatest nations on planet earth inshaa Allah.
Thank you all and may God bless and protect you all.
God bless The Gambia.
