Mr Kandeh however advised his supporters to exercise restraint and remain calm.<\/p>\n<p>However, the GDC NAM for Jimara Constituency Alhagie H. Sowe, has since congratulated President Adama Barrow on his victory. Writing on Facebook, Sowe said: \u201cCongratulations my brother, President-elect Barrow on your victory. The Gambian people have spoken, and I respect their verdict. We may have different political affiliations, but at the end of the day we are one people aiming to better the life of the citizens of this country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have no doubt that your first project will be to unite the already divided citizenry, for no president can preside over a broken state. I pray that God, the most omnipotent, continues to give you the required strength and wisdom to take this country to the dream land,\u201d Sowe said. The party\u2019s NAM for Niamina East, Omar Ceesay also congratulated the Gambian leader.<\/p>\n<p>Ceesay wrote: on Facebook \u201cDespite our political differences, I wish to congratulate president-elect Barrow, NPP, and all the other candidates.
