Sana Sabally and Edward Singhatey have agreed to let bygones be bygones with the two men expected to meet later today for a reconciliation showdown.
The duo were members of a five-man military council that toppled the 30-year-old rule of former president Sir Dawda Kairaba Jawara in 1994, but Sabally’s membership of the council was short-lived after he was arrested and jailed for nine years for plotting a fresh coup.
Singhatey played a key part in getting rid of Sabally – with the former describing the latter during his appearance before the TRRC as ‘erratic’ and ‘violent.’
TRRC chairman today said the two men will participate in a reconciliation event and that they want to do it at the probe’s premises.
“This was an initiative that Mr Sana Sabally requested, to reconcile with Mr Edward Singhatey who [also] wanted the same reconciliation,” Dr Lamin J Sise said.
The meeting will be held later today.
