As He Calls For Greater Participation In Nation Building

By Staff Reporter Bakary Gibba, Banjul

Continuing his new television program dubbed  “ Gambia in motion” Gambia’s President Yahya Jammeh called on all Gambians irrespective of political affiliation to help build a better and prosperous nation. Mr. Jammeh cautions that his much talked about Silicon Valley—which is aimed among other things transforming the impoverished West African country into a modern state, would not be realized without the collective  participation of the country’s citizenry. The Gambian leader therefore implored on Gambians to put all hands on deck to ensure that such a vision is achievable, as envisaged in the Government’s development programs. Mr. Jammeh observed that a developed,  and prosperous Gambia would pave a better living conditions for the nations unborn generation. He says it should be the business of every Gambian to help develop the nation. This he says, would lay a good foundation for the upcoming generation—who he in his own words would be entrusted with the country’s mantle of leadership.

Has Powerful Businesses Hired Mercenaries To Kill Jammeh?

Why Jammeh Is Absent From The Public View?

Classified State Secrets Declassified!!!

By Lamarana Jallow, Son Of The Gambia

I have been compelled to write for the sake of posterity. I am one of the personal aides of  President Yahya Jammeh. Bear with me for a moment to relate my experiences at the State House in Banjul and Kanilai, the President’s home villa. I am not writing out of hatred, vengeance, or malice. My decision to come out from the closet has been prompted by the President’s move to smear our gallant and patriotic armed forces and the influential business community. I want The Gambian nation—including our armed forces to understand some key national security issues currently boggling the mind of the Head of State. I do know for a fact that the President has been briefed not to show up in the public view to avoid  being assassinated by an unnamed hired mercenaries, who intelligence reports suggest are currently in the country. These mercenaries have been tasked to remove Jammeh and restore an interim government to be headed by Civilians. It has come to our attention that several millions of dalasis have been pumped into this major operation, which is seemingly worrying Oga to death.
