Barrow third term will worsen hardship: Faal warns Foni
According to Mr. Faal, the situation could become even more difficult after the December 5th presidential election if the current leadership is retained. He said many families are already struggling and warned that the trend would only intensify. “If Adama Barrow is given another term, hardship will increase in this country; fuel will be scarce, food prices will go up, and life will become more difficult,” he said, adding that stagnant salaries would leave citizens with little room to cope. Mr. Faal also turned his attention to voter participation, urging those who have not yet obtained voter cards to do so before it is too late. He stressed that taking part in the supplementary registration exercise is crucial for anyone hoping to have a say in the election. The APP-Sobeya leader maintained that the economic pressure currently being felt by citizens reflects years of hardship, which he linked to the Barrow administration. Seeking to position his party as a credible alternative, Mr. Faal said his government would prioritise development while paying closer attention to women and young people, whom he described as key to the country’s future. He further criticised what he sees as unequal distribution of public services, pointing to water supply projects that he claimed have not reached certain communities because of political considerations. “There is a water project meant for communities, yet it did not reach here, and we are hearing it is because this is seen as a UDP stronghold; that kind of politics must stop.” Mr. Faal also called for an end to nepotism, tribalism and partisan favoritism, arguing that the country’s progress depends on leadership that is capable and committed to national interest. “You cannot move a country forward without the right leadership qualities,” insisting that “competence and determination are essential for real change.”
