A renowned Senegalese marabout, Abdou Karim Touré, has made a bold spiritual proclamation about Gambian President Adama Barrow, declaring that the president’s time in office has come to an end.

Touré reinforced his statement by swearing on the Holy Quran, insisting that his declaration is final and that “nothing can change” the outcome he has foreseen.

His remarks have sparked wide public debate across social and political circles in both The Gambia and Senegal, given the influence spiritual leaders hold in West African societies.
