Ebrima Jawo, the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) candidate for the Banjul mayoral election, has endorsed the National People’s Party (NPP) candidate Ebou Faye. Jawo said he made the decision in the best interests of Banjul.
“If you want and your country wants, you leave it for your country. We are all working for the best interests of Banjul. I am not backing down because I am afraid. We know the people that are behind us. We came together after discussing with Honorable Muhammed Ndow, the Deputy Speaker, and other people who were sent by the elders, so that we would not split the votes in Banjul. As a person, half of you belongs to yourself and the other half belongs to the people.” he said

We are all from the same background (With Ebrima Jawo). He is a brother, and we have mutual respect. We thank you for joining us, and we will use your expertise for the transformation of Banjul to be a vibrant city,” he said.
