Mai Fatty has said he supports Mayor Talib Ahmed Bensouda’s stance against official corruption.
KMC was thrown into uncertainty Monday when riot police arrived at the council compound amid the return to work of beleaguered CEO Sainabou Martin Sonko.
An emergency meeting of the general council was convened amid the standoff between the KMC and the local government ministry.
GMC leader Mai Fatty while attending the meeting said: “I would urge the ministry to allow fair investigations to proceed and I would crave the indulgence of the officers impugned to stay away until the investigations are fully completed.
“That is what will serve the interest of The Gambia, that is what will serve the interest of KMC. All of us public officials including the mayor and I commend the mayor’s fight against corruption. And I support his stance to fight against official corruption.”
