Seedy Njie has fired back at Momodou Sabally after the former secretary general shot at him that he is paid to lie.
In an exclusive interview with The Fatu Network, the NPP deputy spokesman countered: “There are over a million Gambians who could talk about corruption, who could talk about governance but not Momodou Sabally. He was secretary general and head of civil service. He was found wanting. Momodou Sabally has no credibility when it comes to governance.
“There are so many Gambians who are accusing him of being responsible for their arrest, their detention and their bogus trial. He said Seedy Njie of Equatorial Guinea. I went up to Equatorial Guinea with the former president. Every Gambian knows that. I am proud to say that I’m a politician, I am loyal, I don’t play double standard.
“In fact Momodou Sabally’s posture is against the teachings and tenets of the Holy Quran and the Holy Prophet Muhammad. Islam detests arrogance pomposity. When you speak, people must see humility in you. With President Barrow and NPP, when we speak, we speak with humility, we speak with respect, we speak with honor and dignity.
“What Momodou Sabally has done if he was in the Arab world, he would have been executed for embezzling millions dollars and hundreds of millions of dalasis under his leadership when he was secretary general. He would have been executed if he was in somewhere else, in China or in other countries. If it was in the West, he would have been serving jail by now.
“He has grudges against the president. He talks about the lead counsel [of Janneh Commission] but he falls short of mentioning Amie Bensouda. She was the lead counsel of Janneh Commission and Momodou Sabally in the Janneh Commission report, they indicted him for economic crime and for embezzlement of public funds and they recommended for his prosecution and for forfeiture of all his assets and also they recommended for him to be banned for life. The son of the lead counsel he is accusing, insulting every day is a senior executive member of the United Democratic Party and by default she is a member of the United Democratic Party.
“We want Momodou Sabally to come back to his senses. People who banned him for life, people who want him prosecuted, people who want him jailed are now the people inviting him to open doors for them and [for him] to be going around, using him as maid, as a mad person. Because they say, ‘he is metally-ill person, let’s take him for him to be going round insulting people’.”
