Dr Ismaila Ceesay slammed on Monday it is ‘unjustifiable’ to outlaw inter-school athletic competition but allow super music concerts and political gatherings to take place.

It came days after President Barrow launched his party at the same venue attended by thousands.

The government has however banned inter-school athletic competition in a bid to slow the spread of coronavirus – in an astonishing show of inconsistency.

According to Dr Ceesay, it’s unjustifiable to bar students from taking part in their annual athletic competition where you allow super music concerts and political gatherings to take place.

“The political leaders, myself included, have failed to show leadership at a time when it is needed to fight the virus,” Dr Ceesay said in a tweet on Monday.
