Gambia :NRP Candidate Debunks Waa Juwara
By Abdoulie Nyockeh & Alieu Jamanka
Mr Samba
Jallow, the defeated NRP candidate for Niamina Dankunku
constituency, has refuted the allegation by Lamin Waa Juwara
that the NRP leader, Hamat Bah, had infused tribalism into
the Niaminankas, describing the view as baseless.
In an
interview with these reporters at his home village of
Jessadi in the Central River Region, Mr Jallow said the
claims are unwarranted, noting that there has never been any
case of tribal segregation within Niamina. “ I see no reason
why Juwara is making such allegations,” he said.
According
to Samba Jallow, rather than campaigning for the opposition
candidates, Waa Juwara remorselessly campaigned for the APRC
candidates in Niamina Dankunku, Niamina East and Niamina
West.
He
contended that the people of Niamina have the right to
choose their representatives and would take the result in
good faith, even though they were disappointed with the
outcome.
The NRP
candidate in Niamina Dankunku finally called on all natives
of Niamina to put aside political differences and work for
the development of Niamina in particular and the country in
general.
