President Adama Barrow has nominated one Foday Gassama as new National Assembly Member to replace Kumba Jaiteh, who was dismissed last week.
A communiqué from the presidency a few minutes ago said the president acting under section 88 1(b) of the 1997 Constitution, nominated Mr. Gassama with immediate effect.
He is said to be a former United Democratic Party Regional Youth Coordinator for West Coast and he failed out with the party over his involvement with Barrow’s Youth for National Development movement.
