Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>In response to President Adama Barrow\u2019s recent remarks, Talib Ahmed Bensouda, Mayor of Kanifing Municipal Council (KMC), asserts that Barrow\u2019s presidency is nearing its end and urges him to cease instigating violence between UDP and NPP supporters.<\/b><\/p>\n

Bensouda condemns Barrow\u2019s call for conflict between the two parties, likening it to a parent encouraging strife among their children. He advocates for peaceful conflict resolution, urging supporters of both parties to report any incidents to law enforcement rather than retaliate.<\/p>\n

\u201cYesterday, once more, the president directed his criticisms towards the UDP. Specifically, he targeted the party\u2019s leader, Lawyer Ousainou Darboe, urging supporters of his own NPP party to clash with those of the UDP. It\u2019s unsettling to witness a leader instigating violence among his own citizens, akin to a parent encouraging strife among their own family members. I\u2019ll advise NPP supporters: if any UDP follower violates your rights, refrain from retaliation; instead, report the incident to the authorities. Similarly, I\u2019ll urge UDP supporters to take the same course of action. A true leader ought to advocate for peace within his nation, yet promoting conflict in the realm of politics is a troubling stance. Perhaps it\u2019s time for introspection on his part,\u201d Talib remarked.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, Bensouda criticizes Barrow\u2019s derogatory remarks about the United Democratic Party (UDP), stressing that such language is unbecoming of a leader. He highlights Barrow\u2019s inconsistency, noting the irony of his disparagement of \u2018Narr Boutiques\u2019 despite benefiting from aid from \u2018Narr\u2019 countries during the recent OIC summit.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe remarked on the UDP bureau, likening it to a \u2018Narr Boutique.\u2019 I believe a true leader should rise above such trivial discourse. What baffles me is that the recently concluded OIC event was funded by \u2018Narr\u2019 countries. Mauritania generously provided 100 vehicles for transportation. So why demean \u2018Narr\u2019 establishments? I\u2019ll convey this to the president: your tenure is well understood. In today\u2019s Africa, presidential terms are typically limited to two. Let\u2019s uphold this tradition\u2014no to a third term\u2014and let Africa move beyond this. I\u2019ll urge President Barrow to designate a successor from within his party. If that\u2019s not feasible, he should cease targeting the UDP, as we boast numerous capable individuals.\u201d Mayor Bensouda said.<\/p>\n
