Supporters call Essa Faal ‘president’ as he visits Manduar

Essa Faal visited Manduar on Wednesday as he intensified his engagement with voters ahead of the December presidential election.

Mr Faal last month announced he will run for president as an independent candidate. His campaign is dubbed ‘Turnaround’.

He was in Manduar in Kombo South on Wednesday where he was received by supporters who called him ‘president’ as he addressed them.

During a brief meeting, Mr Faal insisted the costing of living in the country is high and vowed to fight corruption when he is voted into office.
