Madi Ceesay, the UDP’s National Assembly member for Serekunda West, has said the Barrow Youth Movement (BYM) was a “threat” to the UDP and was being run as a political party to further President Barrow’s hidden political agenda.

Addressing a UDP rally in Brikama, Ceesay said Barrow was deviating from the agenda of the Coalition with his youth movement.

He urged all UDP supporters “to condemn the movement” which he likened to former president Jammeh’s Green Boys.

“We in the UDP see the Barrow Youth Movement as our arch rival because they are part of us in the UDP but we now see them as a political party in the making.

“If Barrow has another agenda besides the National Development Plan (NDP) which we all support, then we will have suspicions about his intentions. He shouldn’t have any other agenda other than the NDP. So having observed his actions, our position in the UDP is that the Barrow Youth Movement is clearly a political party in the making”.
