He said the date and time of his arrival are going to be announced by the executive committee.<\/p>\n<p>Throwing a shade at President Barrow, Tamba told the cheering crowd: \u201cJammeh did not run away. He took permission to leave this country and if he announced his return, why are you being desperate? You claimed you are the one who chased the lion away, now the lion announced his return and you are petrified. I want to call on supporters not to be threatened by President Barrow\u2019s remarks. I want to urge you to continue to girdle your waists and make orders for your ashobi [matching outfits] and be ready to welcome our leader.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He explained that supporters from all parts of the country from Kartong to Koina are anticipating Jammeh\u2019s coming and are ready to welcome him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us come out in our large numbers and make sure when he looks out from the window of his plane before it lands, he sees every place in the airport is green,\u201d Tamba enthused.<\/p>\n<p>Executive member Jerrending Sanyang said they are not swayed by the \u201creckless remarks\u201d being peddled by President Barrow and his agriculture minister Demba Sabally at meetings in the ongoing Meet The People Tour regarding Jammeh\u2019s coming.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know what we know and we are focused until that day comes. They are misleading the people. Let them know that we cannot be threatened by anybody. We are going ahead with our plans to welcome Jammeh and we are going to announce it when the time arrives,\u201d Sanyang said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Gambia<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
