Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>The former APRC spokesman Pa Modou Mbowe said he has yet to hear from ex-President Yahya Jammehsince he resigned from his post.<\/b><\/p>\n

Mr. Mbowe resigned as the APRC mouthpiece months after failing in his bid to become the mayor of the Kanifing Municipality.<\/p>\n

He was a close associate of former President Jammehand was once quoted as saying that he was in touch with Jammeh.<\/p>\n

However, Mbowe explained in an exclusive interview this week that Jammeh has yet to reach out to him since he resigned from his post as the spokesman of the Yaya Tamba-led APRC splinter group.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince I tendered my resignation letter, I still haven\u2019t heard from the party leader Yahya Jammeh,\u201d said Mbowe.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, according to him, the breakaway group has not yet filled the vacuum created by his departure.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is still no replacement. My former portfolio is a big shoe to fill. It is a big responsibility to shoulder,\u201dhe stated.<\/p>\n

Mbowe said his departure from the Yaya Tamba-led APRC splinter group had shaken the faction but was quick to add that the group is still alive though it\u2019s in a state of inactivity.<\/p>\n

Asked whether he had plans to join another party, Mbowe replied: \u201cI don\u2019t have any intention of joining any party. Not now or in the future. I have a party. I have just resigned from my portfolio as the spokesperson of the party to take a break. I have been working for two good years. I have been working tremendously hard to make headway in the party that is currently ranked third in the political ranking. If I wanted to leave my party, I would have done that straight away. No one decides my life for me. I have voluntarily worked for the party for two years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mbowe pointed out that the time has come for young ones to start where he stopped.<\/p>\n
