\u201cI ask all political actors and parties that are not in alliance with Barrow to come and join UDP so that together we will rescue this country,\u201d Darboe said, warning that The Gambia is \u201csinking\u201d and that inaction would endanger future generations.<\/p>\n
Darboe emphasized the need for discipline, commitment, and cooperation to restore the country\u2019s economy and democratic governance, adding that there is \u201cno magic solution\u201d to the nation\u2019s challenges.<\/p>\n
He called for immediate action ahead of the 2026 presidential elections, tasking each UDP supporter to recruit at least one new member as part of a grassroots mobilization effort. The UDP leader also pledged vigilance to ensure that next year\u2019s polls are free and fair.<\/p>\n
