Gambia: Adama Barrow must not forget his big promises

“Today’s inauguration ceremony of Adama Barrow is a moment to remember the risks currently faced by Gambians, and also gives an opportunity to reflect on hopes for the future”.

“We must not forget the big promises Adama Barrow has made to free political prisoners, remove repressive laws, and bring Gambia back to the International Criminal Court”.

“As Gambians await a solution to the current crisis, the country’s security forces must know that the world is watching and refrain from cracking down on those who wish to exercise peaceful dissent during this transition period.”
