National Democratic Party (NDP) leader Kebba Madi Bojang has formally submitted his nomination credentials to the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC), declaring his intent to challenge the status quo and deliver systemic reform.
Accompanied by key party supporters, Bojang handed over his documentation at the commission’s headquarters today to signal his official entry into the upcoming presidential race.
”It is time to rescue the country,” Bojang told reporters following the formal submission, adding that his candidacy represents ordinary citizens seeking transparent governance and economic relief.
“There should be a change of government because people are tired,” he said, citing growing public frustration over rising living costs and public sector challenges.
Outlining the core pillars of the NDP agenda, Bojang highlighted a focus on comprehensive health, education, and agricultural development, alongside defending the rights of everyday Gambians.
Addressing party unity and potential political alliances, the opposition leader stated that the NDP remains open to cooperation with organizations that share its vision for nation-building and good governance.
The IEC will now review the submitted documents to verify compliance with electoral requirements before issuing final candidate certification ahead of the polls.
