United Democratic Party (UDP) leader Ousainu ANM Darboe has warned that The Gambia risks deepening economic hardship if the current government remains in power beyond 2026.
Speaking to supporters in Badibou Kerewan during the UDP’s nationwide engagement tour, Mr Darboe accused the Barrow administration of mismanaging the economy and failing to contain rising living costs.
He predicted that the price of a bag of rice could climb to D5,000 by 2027 if current policies continue.
He also expressed concern about the tourism sector, describing it as “dying” and blaming the government for failing to attract and sustain investment in one of the country’s key economic drivers.
Turning to construction costs, Mr Darboe noted that a bag of cement currently sells for about D650, warning that prices could reach D1,000 within the next two to three months without urgent intervention.
