Justice Minister Dawda Jallow called The Standard yesterday about the 2024 draft constitution bill. Many people wrongly thought the government pulled the bill completely. He explained that they simply moved the second reading from March 27 to June because they needed more time for talks with different groups.
The minister made clear that asking for extra time does not mean they abandoned the bill. He stressed this important point because false rumors started spreading. The Assembly agreed to push back the schedule when the government requested it. Everyone should understand the difference between a delay and a cancellation.
