Imam Bakawsu Fofana has thanked authorities for arresting Musa Saidy and wanting to detain him for insulting the country’s marabouts.

In an audio message on Tuesday evening, Imam Fofana said Imam Saidy was indeed arrested by police.

He said: “I want to thank police commissioner Pateh Jallow for listening to Saidy’s audio and going to arrest him. Pateh said he will not insult people again and he would be jailed if he does.

“So it’s all over now. The issue of Musa Boto Saidy is over from today Tuesday. The issue of killing him has now been aborted.”
