"Not really, I don’t see things that way. My life has always been one of faith. I believe that what God has destined for me is what I am living now, and I accept it until I return to Him. Every stage of my life has been defined by Him. I was happy to serve and support President Barrow fully—100 percent. I am confident that if you spoke to him, he would confirm that I always gave him the support he needed. I have been completely loyal to him and to my country. What matters to me is that I swore on the Holy Qur’an to be loyal to my country, support my president, and serve the people of The Gambia. That is exactly what I did. The president holds me in high regard, and he has said so both in my presence and at various forums. I worked closely with him, and he still has confidence in me, which is what truly matters. If I had left due to violating the constitution, I would have felt embarrassed, but I never felt betrayed. I leave everything in God’s hands. He created me and has given me what is meant for me. Being a believer, I view this as a test from God, a way for me to grow closer to Him. I have never been closer to God than I am now, and I will never hold any grudge against President Barrow. My participation in many programs, such as the TRRC, is evidence of that."
