Is Adama Barrow Losing The Gambia? (2026 Election Truth)

Did Coalition 2016 truly deliver the change Gambians voted for?

In this powerful and honest conversation, Nyang Njie breaks down why many Gambians feel disappointed with the Barrow administration — not based on roads or buildings, but on the promises of institutional reform, justice, accountability, and governance.

We discuss:
– Why Coalition 2016 collapsed
– Justice delayed and its impact on victims
– The power of incumbency in Gambian politics
– Why opposition unity matters
– How poverty has been weaponized politically
– What real change should look like for The Gambia

This is not a party discussion — it is a national conversation about expectations, leadership, and the future of Gambian democracy.
