President Adama Barrow has stated officially launched National People’s Party represents the present and the future – which is here for all citizens.
“This new Party, the NPP, represents the present and the future, and it is here for all Gambian citizens within the frame of a new political consciousness and a new direction. It is the party for all categories of people, based on the concept of true democratic and patriotic Gambian citizenship,” President Barrow said Saturday evening while addressing thousands of his supporters.
NPP was formed a little over a year ago with President Barrow emerging as its leader. In a manifesto obtained by The Fatu Network, the president announced he will run in the December President election.
And in his speech on Saturday evening, the president insisted Gambians must have assessed his performance and felt satisfied prompting them to ask him to stay on as president.
“I am convinced that in urging me to form a political party to contest the 2021 Presidential Election, the people of this nation must have assessed me and my performance.
“Furthermore, I am convinced that your confidence in me, as a nation, is based on sound reasoning and wise judgment, hence your call for me to lead this historic voyage,” the president said.
