President Adama Barrow’s recent public gatherings have raised questions among Gambians with regard to his coronavirus pronouncement on public gatherings

There’s been claims his party, the National People’s Party, is spearheading the public gatherings but a top official of the party has told The Fatu Network that’s not the case.

“I think this question should be directed to the director of Press and Public relations because those is not an NPP gatherings. These are state functions,” Mambanyick Njie said.
