Jokadu MP Salifu Jawo has explained why he left GDC to join President Adama Barrow’s National People’s Party.
Jawo had earlier confirmed his exit from GDC to The Standard but on Monday, the lawmaker explained at a meeting in Kerr Pateh Jawo, Jokadu his reasons for abandoning GDC.
“Wherever I want, I join because they say, ‘freedom of speech, freedom of association’,” Jawo said on NPP TV.
He added: “He [Mamma Kandeh] said to I Honourable Salifu Jawo ‘what I said is not enough, I will now formalise it by writing to you and say I have expelled you from the party’. That’s all I am waiting for from him now.
“But I just want to say that whether he does it or not, I Honourable Salifu Jawo he would never have my ‘yes’ (submission). Because he wants to involve me in fraud and I will not accept that. Because when I was entering parliament I swore to go by what’s right and the truth. So if he is a party leader and says he wants to rule this country based on bad laws, I Honourable Salifu Jawo is not part of it.”
It comes as Asse Sowe also left GDC to join NPP.
