Kebba Madi Bojang Accuses Interior Minister of Harassing Opposition

National Democratic Party leader Kebba Madi Bojang has accused Interior Minister Abdoulie Sanyang of intimidating opposition groups and interfering with their political activities. Speaking at an NDP meeting in Farafenni, Bojang said the tensions he described as a sustained campaign against opposition figures needed to stop. “You have been after us for a while now, and that has to stop or else I am ready to go head-on with you,” Bojang warned, according to the account of his remarks. He also called on the Interior Ministry to explain the rules governing uniforms worn by security personnel. Bojang said restrictions on the clothing used by opposition security teams had left parties uncertain about how to identify their own personnel. He argued that this confusion could create risks for opposition leaders and supporters during political gatherings. The NDP leader said the government knew his party was conducting a nationwide tour, but, in his account, had not provided security for its activities. Instead, he alleged, authorities were harassing private security staff hired by the party to help maintain order at meetings. Bojang said the Interior Minister would be responsible for any security failures arising from the situation. He called for the ministry to specify which uniforms were reserved for official security forces, arguing that opposition parties should not face restrictions without clear guidance. He warned that if the ministry did not clarify the rules, NDP security personnel would return to wearing their customary uniforms despite the restrictions. The accusations reflect a dispute between the party and security authorities over private security arrangements and the conduct of political events.
