‘What they are doing is not correct’: Essa Faal shoots back at critics over his education self-praise

Independent presidential aspirant Essa Faal has insisted his statements since joining the race for State House is not about education rather on simple understanding of life.

“If you speak they say Essa Faal is boasting he is educated. What I say is based on evidence. It’s not even about education but simple understanding of life. What they (leaders) are doing is not correct. If it was, we would all support them,” Mr Faal told supporters in Kerr Serign Sunday evening.

His comments come after critics lashed at him for claiming he is the best candidate as he is educated and accomplished unlike others.

Mr Faal had also derided the nation’s leaders saying they are least educated and it was time Gambians chose him as their leader.
