Attorney General Dawda Jallow has been handed the mandate by cabinet to proceed and initiate a dialogue among all stakeholders with a view to reaching a consensus over the draft constitution.
The draft constitution has been hanging by a thread after a bill that sought to trigger it got thrown out members of the national assembly last month.
The attorney general who is also the minister of justice had said he was working on an independent body to initiate talks in a bid to finding common ground.
According to the minister of information Ebrima Sillah, “cabinet following an exhaustive discussion, mandated the Attorney General and Minister of Justice to proceed and initiate a dialogue among all stakeholders with the view to reaching a consensus over the draft constitution.”
It came at the seventh cabinet meeting held at State House on Thursday.
