Africa-Press – Gambia. The United Democratic Party (UDP) has officially set the timeline for selecting its next flag bearer, a crucial step as the party prepares for upcoming national engagements. Reliable sources have confirmed to Kerr Fatou Media that at an executive committee meeting held earlier today, the party announced that applications for the coveted position will open on 15th July and close on 31st July 2025.
The party leadership has indicated that the final selection of the UDP flag bearer will take place in November, ahead of the party leader’s anticipated nationwide tour. The timing is viewed as strategic, allowing the selected candidate to join the tour and engage with supporters across the country in a show of unity and forward-looking vision.
This development signals a pivotal moment for the UDP as it positions itself for a post-Darboe era, or potentially reaffirms its longstanding leadership under Ousainu Darboe, should he choose to contest again. Party insiders suggest that the open application process reflects a maturing internal democratic framework and a desire to maintain transparency and inclusiveness in leadership transitions.
The upcoming months are expected to generate considerable interest and speculation within the political landscape, as both veteran politicians and emerging figures weigh their prospects in the race for the UDP’s top ticket.
Kerr Fatou Media will continue to follow developments closely as the UDP moves toward this significant political milestone.
