Madi Jobarteh has said he is ready to occupy Banjul for 90 days to pressure President Adama Barrow into re-launching the draft constitution.

The draft constitution’s journey was last month brought to an agonising end after MPs voted against a bill that sought to send it to the next stage – a referendum.

The European Union on Monday stated that it was concerned that there has been a ‘marked’ slowdown in the country’s reform process as it calls on the government to take the lead.

But according Madi Jobarteh, “until We the Citizens occupy McCarthy’s Square to demand the President resubmit the draft constitution and ensure its passage this country will not progress”.

“I am ready to occupy Banjul for up to 90 days to achieve that objective! Are you?” Mr Jobarteh wrote Monday.
