Two National Assembly Members sacked by GDC for supporting President Adama Barrow are criminals, the party’s youth president has said.
MPs Salifu Jawo and Kebba Jallow have overtly shown support to President Barrow and the GDC unhappy with their action sacked them. Their dismissal was made official on Tuesday when the National Assembly declared them independent MPs.
The MPs insist it’s their people who voted them in office and not GDC but MC Cham Jnr said: “If they say GDC didn’t ensure they win is not true. There was a time you can’t even pay the deposit, it was the party that paid it for you, it was the party that campaigned for you, it was Mamma Kandeh’s image that you used.”
Cham Jnr added: “Salifu Jawo organized a meeting in Jokadu just yesterday. He took a bag of rice there and told his committee he was donating it to them. They almost beat him up. They told him he betrayed them, that if he was joining Barrow he should have informed them. These people even campaigned against the party.
“Kebba was in Niamina campaigning for NPP and Salifu was in Jokadu campaigning for the NPP candidate. So these are people who have long left the party but it was the National Assembly that delayed the announcement of their sacking from the party. They were still sitting on committees and benefitting in the name of the party. They are criminals, they are bandits.”
