Minister of Tourism & Culture
Hamat Bah’s tribal and demeaning statement is an open assumption of despicable and disgraceful bigotry. Politicians of his ilk work to undermine and destroy the peaceful and socially cohesive nature of The Gambia.
Gambians will not allow a few selfish and divisive individuals to disrupt the peaceful coexistence that defines us as a nation. We urge President Barrow to condemn the shameful and potentially destructive statement of Hamat Bah.
Equally, we strongly condemn all forms of discrimination and ethnic profiling, and we call for the equal treatment of all Gambians regardless of ethnic origin or religious belief.
