Chief Jobarteh was speaking on Wednesday at the Joint meeting by Foni Jarrol, Bondali, Kansala, Bintang and Berefet constituencies held at Sibanor in the West Coast Region as President Adama Barrow currently embarks on meet with the people tour under the theme “together we can accelerate socio-economic growth and maintain peace and stability.”
He noted that Foni was not known for rejecting a legitimacy of a president, but what he realised with surprise is that some of the people in the Foni Districts find it difficult to accept Barrow’s leadership.
