Alhagie Matarr Kujabi\u2014former National Assembly Member for Foni Bondali and the faction\u2019s Administrative Secretary\u2014to clarify the group\u2019s concerns over the government\u2019s failure to respond to their request for dialogue regarding the return of former President Yahya Jammeh.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Hon. Kujabi said the government\u2019s continued silence on their request remains a major barrier to facilitating Jammeh\u2019s return. He stressed that the state has a critical role to play in the process, adding that \u201cthe former president should not come home without proper engagement with the government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kujabi explained that the faction had previously been informed by party executive member Momodou Tamba that he received a call from State House indicating that a response to their request would be issued. However, he noted that the matter has since stalled with no further communication from the authorities. He added that Tamba was unable to identify the caller, as the number was not saved.<\/p>\n<p>In a phone interview, Hon. Kujabi expressed disappointment and frustration over what he described as neglect by the government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe feel as if we are not citizens because they are not treating us as citizens,\u201d he said. \u201cEven if they do not agree with us or what we are doing, we are citizens of this country, and if we express our desire to have a meeting with them, they should listen to us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite the lack of progress, Kujabi said the group will continue to pursue engagement with the government. He emphasized that former President Jammeh\u2019s intention to return should be taken seriously by the authorities.<\/p>\n<p>He further urged the government to handle the matter with prudence. \u201cLet President Barrow remember that one day he will also become a former president, and he will not want to be handled the way he is handling the affairs of former President Yahya Jammeh,\u201d Kujabi remarked.<\/p>\n<p>He added that Gambians are aware of how former President Jammeh oversaw the return of former President Sir Dawda Kairaba Jawara and argued that Jammeh \u201calso deserves to be handled that way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kujabi called on supporters of the APRC No-To-Alliance to remain steadfast, assuring them that the movement remains determined. \u201cWe will continue the fight until we achieve what we are supposed to because it is President Jammeh\u2019s right to come back to this country, and that has to be recognized and granted. Let the members remain loyal and committed to the course of Jammeh,\u201d he 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.
