Breaking News: Barrow brands the opposition UDP as a thug party; as he warns Gambians about the dangers of having a UDP government!

Barrow warns that the conduct of the UDP thugs is a recipe for instability, as he vehemently condemned it.

“Who are they to determine or define who is a citizen of this country? They have been  branding everyone as a foreigner. I even heard them saying that I am not a Gambian. They said my last name is not Barrow, but Barry, that I am from Guinea Conakry.  These people are thugs wearing black outfits, who are determined to set this country on fire,” he added.

”Interestingly some of them of them are Gambian Americans. They possessed two citizenships.  They were not born in America, they are allowed to vote in America.  Yet they are saying that people who possessed dual citizenship and are not born here cannot vote. What these people are doing can cause fighting.  Tribal profiling is bad and it should be condemned,” said Barrow.

Barrow has called on Gambians to resist UDP’s politics of bully and terror. He also deplored tribalism and its perpetrators.

“These guys are not in government yet and they are profiling people, they are preventing people from being registered, causing disturbances at voter registration centers. Imagine what would happen if they are in government? No one would be safe in this country if they are in government, I mean the the UDP, these are criminal thugs, they have no respect for the rule of law.  They are questioning virtually everyone’s citizenship. They are behaving as if they own this country,” Barrow told the local government leaders.

The President has called on citizens to desist from tribal politics. He warns that tribal politics is a recipe for instability and it should be condemned by all and sundry.

He has also advised the Chiefs and the Alkalos not to be afraid in executing their duties and functions.  He also implored them to consider the opposition as opponents of the government.

“ if you support them, you are supporting your downfall.  You should treat them as your opponents. You are part of the government,” said Barrow.

President Barrow has also queried what he called Sedat Jobe’s hypocrisy and political double standards.

Sedat Jobe was Gambia’s Ambassador to France. He has now become a top UDP surrogate.

“ Sedat Jobe recently wrote to the Senegalese High Commissioner advising him to restraint his citizens from meddling in the upcoming Gambian elections.  He acted out of malice to traffic fake information. The relationship between the two counties, no one can jeopardize it,” Barrow stated

Barrow added that the likes of Sidat Jobe are up to no good. He accuses Jobe of trying to smear the image of the country.

Barrow is also concerned about the UDP leader’s endless press conferences.  He said Darboe wasn’t brave enough to be vocal during Jammeh’s regime as he manifests today.
