Seedy
Njie, Minister of Information, in an interview with Radio Gambia yesterday,
said “the president will not step down”.
“He
has not said he would step down,” he added, saying: “The rumours created in
town are false and fabricated by people who want to create chaos and
confusion.”
Minister
Njie also said President Jammeh reassures Gambians that peace and stability
will be preserved.
“There
will be no inauguration; and anybody attempting to swear anybody that will
tantamount to abrogating the 1997 constitution,” the new information minister
said.
Minister
Njie said it is only the Supreme Court which can determine the validity of the
results based on section 49. Anybody who tries attempting to abrogate some
parts of the constitution will be taking a “criminal and treasonable” step.
