Momodou Sabally has asked President Adama Barrow to ensure free and fair elections if he want peace to rein in the country.

“If you (President Barrow) want peace to rein in this country, there has to be free and fair elections. Whatever you and Alieu Momar Njai are up to, make sure the elections are free and fair. That’s the minimum we’re going to accept in this country,” Mr Sabally said in his latest address to the Gambian leader.

The former civil service boss also savaged the IEC chairman Alieu Momar Njai over the issue of voter registration.

Mr Sabally said: “Alieu Momar Njai and his officials should let political party agents to do their work at the registration centres. The law has given them the power to be at the centres.

“When you have the IEC chairman putting out a press release saying party agents being at registration centres isn’t a right but a privilege. This is a ridiculous statement.

“To make matters worse, he wants to stop them from doing their work by not being allowed to record the particulars of those coming to register. This is a bad act, Mr President, in our nation’s democracy and elections.”
