UDP Leader, Ousainou Darboe, has vowed to his supporters that before
September 15th, he will remove Banjul mayor, Samba Faal, and KMC chairman,
Abdoulie Conteh, from office. Following the Basse incident, the police
refused to issue the UDP permit to hold political rallies but the IEC has
since ordered the IGP to issue the party with a permit. The Police accede to
the IEC demand and issued the UDP with a permit enabling them to hold a
rally near Serekunda Primary School on Saturday. Addressing his party
supporters, Ousainou Darboe said the continued holding of office of Mayor
Faal Chairman of KMC Abdoulie Conteh was unconstitutional. He said he will
file action against them, as well as against all acting chiefs in the
Supreme court to challenge the legality of their continued stay in office.
The UDP he said stands on “ three stones”, namely, Justice, Peace and
Progress.
