Leader of the National Reconciliation Party (NRP) and Minister of Lands and Religious Affairs, Hamat Bah, has declared that his long-held ambition to become president of The Gambia remains firm, unshakeable, and non-negotiable.
Speaking at an NRP rally in Lumen, Bah said his presidential ambition dates back to September 9, 1996, and has remained unchanged for nearly three decades.
“My presidential ambitions from the 9th of September 1996 remain solid and firm in me, and my desire to be president is unshakeable,” he said.
“Let me make this clear: my desire to be president is unshakeable. It remains solid and sound in me, and I am committed to that course.”
He stressed that he will not compromise or trade his ambition for political convenience or alliances.
“I will not mortgage my ambition to anybody, neither to Adama Barrow nor to the NPP or any other group or individual,” he said.
