APRC supporters on Saturday heaped praise on former President Yahya Jammeh as they gathered at Pencha Mi Hall for the party’s 7th national congress.
APRC is holding its second national congress since former President Yahya fell as leader of the nation.
According to supporters of the party, Jammeh was an honourable man who gave poor people food to eat.
Mberry Yahya Jammeh told The Fatu Network: “He was an honourable man. He gave us food to eat, he gave us water to drink. We previously do not know how much a cup of cooking oil cost. The poor people are crying. When Babili Mansa Jammeh Jilanka was here, living was easy. The poor people had good living. The one in charge of the country now cannot do the job.”
“A D100 is nothing now in The Gambia,” Jamorai Jarjue told The Fatu Network.
Another supporter said: “We miss him and we want him to return to the country. He is the only one who can run the country.”
