A PRESIDENT WHO SPEAKS TO EVERYONE EXCEPT HIS OWN PEOPLE.... WONDERFUL

[@baboucarrgaye8547]

ONE LOVE in Gambia. PEACE and LOVE .RESPECT

[@Whatsyournarrative]

Keep your promises Mr. President. Be a man of your word!

[@omarlaye7661]

You are a professional journalist love you.

[@abdur-raheems8648]

Professional huh, her demeanor is totally disrespectful. Who cuts off the leader of a country when he is answering the questions you ask. She would never do that in an interview with the president of a white Country.

[@theophilusbondo6109]

President Barrow: Thanks you so much for this remarkable interview by this pretty woman,I hope you are going to be a great African leader!

[@Ghost-ok6hx]

This lady is looking at him like is this guy really a president? 😂

[@Ansummboge202]

[@Dan-rc1li]

Thank you Barrow

[@abubakrjalloh4077]

I think Barro is a honest man,Gambian should give him a chance, u know African need to trust in the system

[@deloresgupton3567]

Why would you have to have foreign troops who still have to intervene. Nonsense, Mr. President. You should have your own Military. Oh my God and I thought Gambia was gonna be my home. I need strong leadership. No foreign country is going to allow African troops in their country. He needs to be voted out. Your legacy is definitely for the people.

[@aboudarboe5266]

Yes barrow you are doing your best keep it up. ..good in speaking make it real

[@nuhajaguraga2440]

God bless all good health and longer life

[@muhammedkabba5405]

Great speech from the president!

[@chamdodou2040]

Hopefully he'll step down after three years in other to honor his promise. Failure to do so Mr president you are creating political crisis in the Gambia.

[@Dan-rc1li]

You are right Barrow. Do body is above the law. Thank you

[@muhammedkabba5405]

Mr president keep up the momentum may Allah protects you from evil.

[@ibrahimsanneh4177]

Well you are doing things as usual there's nothing change because gambians give themselves freedom of speech.

[@mamabless2549]

Rome is not built in a day...especially a nation, everyone's has a duty and responsible..

[@drofaminternational3128]

[@kawsusillah4271]

I am truly disappointed on our self.

[@Ghost-ok6hx]

If he’s lazy enough to speak I think we have our expectations to high on this man. He’s not the problem we are

[@musajallow5710]

Nothing has changed

[@lamintouraydemocracy7453]

U are great Adama I love u

[@olatunjiawofeso4794]

The President Is Doing A Good Job. The Country Was Totally Broke When He Took Over The Reign Of Power

[@africancitizen4307]

He keeps repeating his answers

[@dj-zo1gj]

Barrow woooo barrow tolayy baa.

[@margueritesaintleger8375]

He looks so lazy. He is not sure of what he is talking about, not convincing

[@Joshdyisdifh]

Under Jammeh, he pulled The Gambia out of the Commonwealth of Nations and the ICC. Also made The Gambia an Islamic Republic.

[@mightyb8614]

So called Islamic Republic whiles killing his opponents and governing with an iron feast .

[@dawidmludzik9526]

@ComedyCentral

[@deloresgupton3567]

This man doesn't believe what he is saying himself. He can't even look straight at the camera and he holds his head down in shame. You have to be careful listening to a person who talks with a whisper. He has and will not put His people First. He is not a strong leader he looks weak and speaks with no authority in his voice. What is this. I have never seen a president with this demeanor. He is not trying to make great change just enough to make the poorest feel a little less pressure. I don't really know him but I would not have voted for him.

[@PamodoulCham]

Is good

[@Nordin9511]

Nothing has changed! Gambia needs a new president that is not too far up with religion and all that, it’s about the people forget religion!

[@Ghost-ok6hx]

Ragnar Lodbrok Oh a lot has changed- only for the worse

[@Dan-rc1li]

Handsome man

[@muhammedjones5519]

great speech Mr president Barrow

[@professionalhacker2834]

African needs a patriotic strong leaders not corrupted puppet master smh

[@Joshdyisdifh]

The Gambia needs Jammeh back.

[@MuntagaAminata]

[@assannsanyang5191]

[@gamstar7741]

He was sleeping in that meeting

[@ebjame8032]

This man is just sick

[@issakofa9922]

Brilliantly answered....president barrow....his confidence overwhelmedly. prepared for his obligation. All africans leaders ne eds to watch president barrow ..this man was a blessing to gamble and the continent

[@katimtouray8980]

The great leader of ours,,, may the MIGHTY keep guiding you.

[@Ghost-ok6hx]

This guy cannot even articulate himself . What’s honourable about hosting the OIC ? This guy’s a joke

[@zainabdanso8192]

[@IAM-ii4nq]

This was a good interview. Congratulation Mr. President

[@ramatgan1]

He doesn't seem like he has the drive and intellect to be effective at anything. How was he chosen. In a country of 2 million how was this inexperienced man with no public service history chosen.

[@thetruth9427]

Sam Hussein i dont know myself. He use to work in my local argos store and somehow made it to presidency. Weird

[@md2v4]

How can he think straight with that fat belly. He keeps falling asleep, how can he have any drive apart from eating.
