The protest is in response to NAWEC\u2019s recent decision to increase its tariffs.<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cAfter a series of meetings with Police from Wednesday to Friday we\u2019re pleased to announce that the #DafaDoy #NAWEC #BringBackCheaperTariffs Peaceful Protest has been granted a permit by the Police to commence our demonstration by 1 pm on Saturday 13th May 2023,\u201d Ousainu Gambia, one of their members confirmed.<\/p>\n

The team is inviting the public to assemble peacefully at Westfield on the NAWEC side of the road at Cooperative Junction at 1 pm.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s finally time for everybody to demonstrate our collective dissatisfaction PEACEFULLY against the extortionate new NAWEC Tariffs and demand for its reversal within the shortest possible time. If NAWEC goes back to the previous tariff The Gambia will remain as 6th most expensive in West Africa which is still very high. Come one, come all in peace and make your voices heard to compel the authorities to take the necessary steps to reduce the burden on all Gambians and people living in this country,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n
