United Democratic Party through its leader Ousainou Darboe has described the State House as a partisan stumping ground where President Adama Barrow and his acolytes gather to waste what he calls scare national resources. The UDP’S leader’s comments came following the infamous ‘rat’ rhetoric from the Minister of Tourism and Culture Hamat Bah.
The Tourism Minister made the comment during a political gathering at the State House on Saturday where he warned Gambians to vote against the ‘rats’. While condemning Hamat’s tribal comments, the UDP leader expresses his disappointment on how the State House has been reduced to a partisan stumping ground for the President and his followers, as supposed to being a symbol of national unity and sovereignty.
‘’UDP is deeply disappointed that the State House the symbol of national unity and sovereignty that is maintained by Gambian Taxpayers money is now a partisan stumping ground where the President and his acolytes congregate to waste scarce national resources in the time of COVID19’’.
