GDC deputy leader Sarjo Fanta Bojang has told The Standard he left the party after his ‘expectations’ were not met.
The Standard reported today Mr Bojang said he quit GDC after the party failed to mainstream ‘the people of Kombo and matters of Kombo’. The Brikama native said the people of Kombo were in fact marginalised, according to The Standard.
GDC national youth president has shared what appeared to be Mr Bojang’s resignation letter. In the letter dated 4 October, Mr Bojang touted his below par performance and ‘immense’ pressure from his family as the reason why he was leaving the party.
“Thank you and the national executive for putting your trust in me to help promote the party and the party’s agenda. However, I know I have not lived up to these expectations. I have been under immense family pressure to stay away from politics and I have been battling with these pressures for the past several months,” Mr Bojang said in the letter.
The Standard reported that the former GDC Number 2 has announced he’s joined President Adama Barrow’s party, the National Peoples Party.
“I was among a handful of Kombo elders who met President Barrow today [last Saturday] and we are convinced that the NPP is the party that will serve the people pf Kombo with far more respect and care than any party,” he told The Standard.
