The 78-year-old trade unionist, on behalf of trade unions in the country, congratulated president-elect Adama Barrow on his election victory as President of the Republic of The Gambia.

The septuagenarian however called on President Barrow to appoint and work with committed and patriotic professionals to enhance efficiency and sustainable growth in diverse sectors.

It could be recalled that all local and international observers who monitored the 4th December presidential election unanimously agreed that the said election was free, fair, transparent and credible. Also, most of the presidential candidates who contested with President Barrow have accepted the outcome. Top officials of the main opposition UDP have also been extending congratulatory gestures to president-elect Adama Barrow.
