PRESIDENT JAMMEH HOLDS MEETING
President Yahya Jammeh has told party supporters at Sabbah Sanjal that neither Coup d’etat nor election will remove him from power. Jammeh made this statement at a meeting held at Sabbah Sanjal on Monday. “It is only God who can change my government. As the President of this country, I have measured up to expectations’, Jammeh remarked. “I am not on a Political tour, but rather on a dialogue with the people”, Jammeh noted.
Omar Bah and Ousainou Sallah who claimed to be the Coordinators of the opposition United Democratic Party and the National Reconciliation Party in the area, informed the meeting of their defection to the ruling APRC Party. They informed the meeting that their defection to the APRC is triggered by the developments undertaken by the Jammeh administration. The Secretary of State for Agriculture cum National Mobiliser of the ruling APRC Party, Yankuba Touray, told party supporters that their party is the only party that stands for the development of the country.
For his part, the National Assembly member of the area, Kebba Lang Camara, said the defection of the two bigwigs to the APRC is a plus to their party [APRC]. He said he can say that there are no opposition sympathizers in Sabbah now.
