supporters outside the headquarter;
while others were at a nearby restaurant to wait for the outcome

building, some of his supporters rush to shake hands with him while others put
your hands together to cheer him up.

clearly be seen on his face as he tells his supporters to remain calm.

to journalists who approach him to find out the outcome of the questioning.
On Tuesday, a press conference was
held at Mr Darboe’s residence in pipeline regarding the government’s recent
statement that they (UDP) are tarnishing the country’s image.
His respond came after his party was
blame of dissolute activities by ‘casting a very bad and negative image of both
the Government and noble people of The Gambia’ by the government.
‘‘These people and institutions
specialize in lying and providing false attestations for would-be asylum
seekers using the main opposition party (UDP) as a platform for such nefarious
activities, thereby casting a very bad and negative image of both the Government
and noble people of The Gambia,’’ the government said in statement according to
local newspapers.
