Gambia Democratic Congress is a political party in the Gambia led by Mama Kandeh, a former APRC National Assembly member. It was established in 2016.[2][3]
The initial deputy leader, Facuru Sillah, later left the party after a dispute with Kandeh.[4] Kandeh ended up as the third most voted candidate with 12.32% of the vote in the 2021 election, which was won by incumbent president Adama Barrow.[5]
