President Adama Barrow has surrounded himself with amateurs who do not know how a government is run, Yankuba Colley has said.
Speaking in an exclusive interview with Gambian Talent Promotion on Tuesday, the immediate past mayor of Kanifing Municipality assessing President Barrow’s government said it was composed of flawed individuals.
Colley said: “I was saying this in my interviews. When Barrow was coming to power, he said he has never worked in government but he’s surrounded himself with people he thinks will help him deliver. But these people are not helping him.
“When the coalition took over, the mistake he first made was to surround himself with UDP people. And all these people are amateurs. They don’t know how it (government) works. That was the reason why people like Mamburay and Tangara came.”
