UDP Kombo Central Youths on the Campaign Trail
The UDP Kombo Central Youth Wing, ahead of the November Presidential Polls, held mass political meetings in the clusters of Daruhairu, Wellingara, Nyambai Baba Galleh, Sanneh Kunda, Darsilameh, Nemagibunto, and Newtown respectively in support of their party and candidate.
Speaking at the Daruhairu Rally, Alieu Darboe the UDP Sponsored Candidate for Kembujeh Ward, tasked the young people to snub Jammeh and vote massively for the UDP saying that it is only the United Democratic Party that can address the needs of the Gambian youths. Darboe assured the meeting that The Gambia under the leadership of Lawyer Darboe will be free from all forms of maltreatment. ''If you want peace, stability and justice as well as the rule of law, vote for Lawyer Ousainou Darboe.'' he noted.
Mr. Darboe also called on the people of Daruhairu and Brikama in particular, to desist from abstaining from voting, noting that those who refuse to vote are the ones encouraging bad governance. According to Mr. Darboe, the time for change is in the offering and it will be wise for every development and peace oriented Gambian to join the movement and vote for Lawyer Darboe.
On the disappearance of Kanyiba Kanyi, Chief Ebrima Manneh, he urged the government of the day to investigate the matter with seriousness as no individual could go missing in a small nation like The Gambia without any trace.'' I also want the government to investigate the missing of other people including the former Bwiam District Chief, Modou Lamin Nyassi, and others.''
The UDP Kombo Central Youth Mobiliser, Lamin Jatta, tasked the young people to be part of the change as Gambians will decide on November 24TH. He stated that Jammeh administration has done nothing promising for the youth of the Gambia, adding that a UDP Unity Government will put the young people at the top of their priority list.
Foday Gassama, the West Coast Coordinator, also called for attitudinal change and urged the youths and women not to allow Jammeh to perpetuate his misrule.
Other speakers at the respective rallies are Ba-Foday Sanneh, UDP Kembujeh Ward Chairman, Karamo Darboe, Banffa Sannoh, Binta Jabang, and Mangic Sonko who all echoed similar remarks.
Alhagie S. Darboe, the UDP Kembujeh Ward Campaign Manager and Organizing Secretary for Kombo Central campaign, chaired the meetings.
