By: Bakary Ceesay

Members of the Operation 3 Years Jotna  has said they are in disagreement with the Coalition stakeholders’ decision to let President Adama Barrow go for five-years after he had campaigned for three years.

Speaking at a press conference held at Semega Janneh Hall on Monday, Hagie Suwaneh, vice chairman of the Operation 3 Years Jotna, said they are totally against the decision championed by Fatoumata Jallow-Tambanjang to extend the coalition’s agreed term from three to five years.

“Fatoumatta Jallow Tambajang individually tasked some members of the Barrow supported camp to join her on the issue of five years. We will never recognise the announcement made by Fatoumatta Jallow Tambajang and her co,” he pointed out.

He added “We are calling on the coalition stakeholders to go back to the people for proper consultation and find a solution to this problem rather than allowing an individual to deliberately dictate citizens”

“We are calling on Fatoumatta Jallow Tambajang to withdraw her statement given on 27th day of September, 2019.”

Suwaneh further pointed out that: “We believe that the elected members should honour the promises they made to the people during the champagne periods.”
