Barrow due here today

The President of the Republic of The Gambia, Adama Barrow, will be returning to Banjul today after more than a week out of the country.

President Barrow, who was sworn-in as president at the Gambian Embassy in the Senegalese capital Dakar, on January 19, is due to arrive at Banjul International Airport by 4pm.

President Barrow will finally come back to The Gambia to fully execute his duties, as the new and third president of The Gambia.

A statement from the Coalition reads: “Fellow Gambian’s we wish to once again take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude for your comportment and behavior during and after our Presidential elections. You have demonstrated your love for our beloved country and we thank God that our challenges have been sorted out in a peaceful way.

“We wish to announce the arrival back home of our beloved President His Excellency Adama Barrow on Thursday 26th January arriving at Yundum Airport at 16.00. We invite all Gambian’s to turnout in massive numbers to give President Barrow a fitting Gambian welcome.”
