The government wants to instigate violence at UDP’s event in Sanyang on Saturday to try to drag UDP into legal trouble, the party’s leader said on Friday.
Ousainou Darboe told a group of Imams they have accessed dependable information of the NIA’s plan to invade their event with the aim of causing confusion and violence.
According to the UDP leader, the plan involves having NIA operative wear a President Adama Barrow t-shirt and ploughing into UDP’s meeting riding a motorcyle.
The party’s spokesman Almamy Taal told The Fatu Network the plan by the Barrow government is to lure leader Ousainou Darboe into fresh legal trouble ahead of next year’s elections.
“It is the case that they’re looking for ways of getting to UDP and to Mr Darboe,” Taal said.
UDP is flagging off the construction of its political bureau in Sanyang on Saturday.
