HEADS TO ROLL AT BCC, AND KMC-JAMMEH

JAMMEH “SHOCKED” BY  BANJUL’S BAD SANITATION

Surprise Visit Ends With Shock, And Outrage!!!

JAMMEH GAVE ULTIMATUM TO CITY OFFICIALS

By Staff Reporter Bakary Gibba, Banjul

President Yahya Jammeh yesterday made a surprising visit to the Capital City Banjul, and the Kanifing Municipality, but was the least impressed by the environmental sanitation in the two localities. Mr. Jammeh was greeted by an appalling drainage system in both the KMC, and Banjul—which apparently angered the touring President. Jammeh has given an ultimatum to Mayor Samba Faal, and KMC’s Yankuba Colley to fix the problem of poor drainage, and bad environmental sanitation in these localities, if they want to keep their jobs. The Gambian leader said his administration would not tolerate such deplorable sanitation, which poses a great risk to the health being of Gambians.

DETENTION WITHOUT TRIAL MUST STOP-JAMMEH

By Staff Reporter Peter Mendy, Banjul

Addressing the newly six hired Gambian judges Monday at the State House in Banjul, Gambian President Yahya Jammeh said his administration attaches great importance on the need for “timely and speedy” administration of justice. The President urges the new judges to help clear the backlog of cases—currently at the judiciary, especially on matters relating to murder, and drug trafficking. Mr. Jammeh said the judges are expected to be loyal to the state, and  are also duty bound to dispense  justice without fair, or favor. He said the judges should endeavor to live up to their oath of office, and allegiance—pointing out that Gambians expect them to deliver the goods in the arena of jurisprudence.

BIGGEST DRUG CASE KILLED BY IGP BADJIE!!!!

The Case Of Sheriff Jallow, Gibril Jallow, And Banna Joina Was More Than An Abduction Case-Police Command Sources Said

The Biggest Case Yet To Be Prosecuted Uncovered!!!

The arrest, and subsequent prosecution of the three Serre Kunda natives in November of 2008, attracted a heated media coverage in Banjul, but there are hidden facts surrounding the case of Sheriff Jallow, Gibril Jallow, and Banna Joina, who were charged with “abduction, and kidnapping” by the police –under the leadership of the erstwhile Inspector General Essa Badjie, the Freedom Newspaper can reveal. The case of the trio, was widely underreported by Gambia’s mainstream media—thanks to IGP Badjie’s conspiracy theories to “kill” a multimillion drug case involving the three, sources familiar with the case said.

MARIE SAINE’S PRIVATE MEETING WITH AMNESTY!!!

Details From Geneva Meeting Emerged

Is The NIA Watching Minister Marie Saine????

Justice Minister Marie Firdaus  Saine held a private meeting with Amnesty International staffers, who attended the just concluded UN Geneva Rights conference, following numerous excuses of busy schedules. The Minister finally accorded audience to the Amnesty officials, but sources reaching this paper say Saine insists that the meeting must be witnessed by her entire delegation—for fear of being implicated by the secret NIA agents, Freedom Newspaper’s Weekend Edition can reveal.  That request was granted without rancor, as Amnesty was only interested about hearing Gambia’s side of the story on alleged gross rights abuses perpetrated by the Jammeh administration.

The Road to Self Determination and Independence On the 18 February celebrations—Part 2

By Halifa Sallah, Banjul

It goes without saying that those who took over the country in 1965 had the task to build a state which could guarantee the general welfare of the people as manifested in its civil, political, economic, social and cultural aspects. For 45 years since the declaration of Independence, it is sad to inform the Gambian people that over eighty percent of our annual development budget has always been derived from loans and grants. The bulk of schools, roads, hospitals, airports, generators, agricultural projects and so on and so forth have been made available through loans and grants.
