Kebba Madi Bojang, the defactor leader of the newly formed National Democratic Party (NDP) has disclosed that his expulsion from the executive of the ruling National People’s Party (NPP) is a ploy meant to force him to talk on activities of the budding party they are about to launch.
Mr. Bojang made the disclosure during an interview granted to Voice newspaper following his removal as the National Youth President of the ruling NPP.
According to him, the time is not ripe for him to make statements or respond to various letters emanating from the National People’s Party, adding that the time to talk or make statement will arrive once the National Democratic Party is fully registered as a political party in The Gambia.
The development comes on the heels of his removal as the National Youth President of NPP together with Lamin Jatta, a co-opt executive member, Sainey Manneh and Lamin Touray who served as Public Relations Officers of NPP, in West Coast Region.
Their removal from the executive membership of the NPP was announced in a communique signed by Seedy S.K. Njie, Deputy Spokesperson of the ruling NPP on Friday 20th June, 2025. The four sacked NPP executive members were said to have violated party rules and regulations.
Meanwhile, Kebba Madi Bojang responded to the claims, asserting that his removal was solely meant to get his response and reaction regarding NDP affairs. He notes that when the right time comes, NDP will speak out and answer any questions relating to the activities of the new party.
“I don’t have anything to talk about our removal from the NPP executive, let them do anything they (NPP) want. If they want let them come and kill me but I have nothing to say about the removal,” Kebba Madi Bojang said.
He added: “Am not done with the program of our new party, so ‘am not saying anything until ‘am done. The reason they are putting out all the letters is to push me to talk but am not going to do that until when the time comes for me to speak out.”
