FODAY KUNDA WARD COUNCILOR PASSES AWAY;
TWO BY-ELECTIONS LOOMING

By Solo, Banjul correspondence...........September 25th, 2008


The Councilor of Foday Kunda ward in the Wuli East District of the
Upper River Region, Mr. Yaya Kanteh has died.


According to reliable information received from Wuli Mureh Kunda where
Mr. Kanteh hails from, the councilor died of a terminal illness, which
has been plaguing him for over two years now. Mr. Kanteh who stood for
the ruling APRC party in the last council elections, defeated  Mr.
Dinding Jarra, the opposition NADD candidate by a small margin of just
above a 100 votes.


The death of Mr. Kanteh obviously leaves two council by-elections
looming in the URR Region including the pending Sandu by election
slated for October this year.


Mr. Kanteh's demise is yet to be made public by the relevant
authorities or the IEC.
