Essa Faal speaks on if he will run for president

TRRC lead counsel Essa Faal has come short of categorically stating if he will run for president – only saying he is ready to serve in whatever capacity the people want him to serve in.

Rumours continue to abound Mr Faal is interested in the job of president – and when asked on For The People By The People show on Sunday, he addressed the issue, even if cautiously.

He said: “I am willing to serve in whatever capacity the people of this country want me to serve in. It’s not about what I can get. What I can get, I get for myself and I get for myself elsewhere.

“But this is about service to the country, service to the people. Where I am required, where I am needed if it accords with my values, I would go there and I would do it.”
