The leader of the Gambia Democratic Congress Party has called on the government of Adama Barrow to take him and his offer to help salvage the Gambian people especially in solving the current electricity crisis.
He said he has a plan and an opportunity to help facilitate a temporary solution to provide 24 hours electricity until such a time the country’s power station is capable.
Speaking during a press conference on Monday at the Baobab Hotels, Kandeh said the frequent and seemingly never ending electricity blackouts are worst than what Gambians have ever known.
“This is not what Gambia has decided. I have a plan and an opportunity to help facilitate a temporary solution to provide 24 hours electricity until such time our power station is capable. I urged the government to take me on my offer for the sake of the Gambian people” he said.
On the water crisis, Kandeh said the situation is unbearable and subjecting Gambians to the use of 20 liter gallons at 03:00am to fetch water.
“This water crisis is both a security and public health challenge for our people. Water is a naturally occurring substance in this country and there is no justification for such hardship. It is getting harder to see 20 litres or petrol for and average Gambian family. How come our petroleum stations are full but our water tanks are empty” he concluded.
