Opposition APRC will stage a permit-less protest on Thursday to call on the government of President Adama Barrow to respect a 2017 deal that could see former president Yahya Jammeh return to the country.
APRC applied for a permit to hold a protest in support of Mr Jammeh’s return from Equatorial Guinea where he has been living in exile since his 2016 political annihilation. The Inspector General of Mamour Jobe is yet to respond to APRC’s permit request even as the party informed him it wanted to stage the protest on Thursday 16 January.
Sources have now told The Fatu Network the party has now set aside the issue of a permit and will now go ahead with its protest.
It comes amid the denial of a permit to Operation Three Years Jotna – a group that has been soaked in an arduous campaign for President Barrow to step down from power next Sunday.
The Fatu Network understands Operation Three Years Jotna will stage a protest on Sunday without a permit.
