\n
The National People\u2019s Party (NPP) has noted with concern a recent interview circulating on mainstream and social media featuring Mr Kemo Bojang of the Kanifing Municipal Council (KMC). In the interview, Mr Bojang alleged that the Secretary General and Party Leader of the NPP offered Mr Talib Ahmed Bensouda the positions of Vice President and Minister of Trade during a meeting he claimed to have attended.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The NPP categorically rejects these allegations as false.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The Party has never entered into negotiations or engagements with Mr Talib Ahmed Bensouda regarding joining or aligning with the NPP. At no time has the Party Leader met or offered such positions to him or to any individual under such circumstances.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Since 2021, no member of the NPP has been authorised to negotiate with any party or individual on matters relating to the position of Vice President. Any person purporting to have held such discussions did so without the knowledge or approval of the Party Leader and the NPP.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Official negotiations, where necessary, are conducted strictly by a team formally appointed by the Party Leader. No such team was ever constituted in relation to Mr. Bensouda.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The NPP leadership remains unaware of any purported negotiations with Mr Bensouda or his associates. While the Party continues to mobilise support through its established structures, all engagements must remain consistent with official party policy.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
In a separate development, the NPP expresses profound gratitude to His Excellency President Adama Barrow for launching the NPP Women\u2019s Enterprise Fund. This initiative marks a significant milestone in the political evolution of The Gambia, aimed at empowering women within the Party and its alliances by strengthening their socio-economic participation in national politics.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
