Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>Hon Demba Ali Jawo, former Information Minister under President Adama Barrow, in his recent interviews on President Barrow`s declaration of seeking a third term in office in 2026 said people who are closer to the president want him to be in the presidency forever.<\/b><\/p>\n

Hon Jawo added that he is not surprised about the president\u2019s announcement to seek re-election in the 2026 presidential election when due hence the 1997 constitution guaranteed him the power to seek election at any time.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany people have this belief that if President Barrow completes his second term in office he will also leave power because at the beginning when he was coming to power, he promised people that he will have only 3 years in power but he didn\u2019t do that,\u201d he reminded people.<\/p>\n

Instead, \u201cWhat we have seen was that shortly before the 3 years he said he will now complete his 5 years in power because that\u2019s what the law grants him, he completed that and seek for another 5 years and the people gave him that one too (and now he still) it is like he is really enjoying presidency.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, he said \u201cIf I am the president when I complete this 2nd term I will leave power and allow others. So that he can gain more respect from people across the world, but if he allows himself to be defeated in the election while seeking his third term or something else happens that will spoil his reputation,\u201d Hon Jawo stressed.<\/p>\n
