 "Africell has been making people millionaires but I, President Yahya A JJ Jammeh will make a whole team Millionaires.  I mean the entire entourage of the team that went to Algeria and brought the cup for us. Every one of you will receive a Million each,” said President Jammeh. Jammeh made the statement during the handing over ceremony of the millions he promised to the under 17 team. 

A happy looking Jammeh said the efforts of the under 17 team cannot go unrewarded. He said he deems it necessary to fulfill his promise by handing over one million dalasis to every member of the team.

Gambia’s under 17 team emerges as the winners of the African championship competition.

At a colorful ceremony today, in the presence of different Bank Managers, President Jammeh presented brand new monies as promised to each team member. They each had their Million in a suit case handed to each of them. They were all asked to choose a Bank whose representatives were in attendance to facilitate the safekeeping of their funds. 

The team members could not believe when the President started presenting the million dalasi reward to them. Team members could be seen dancing, while some were in tears due to over excitement. 

Questions are abound about the source of the President’s money spree donations.  Many criticized the move saying that such funds should have been directed to projects that will help improve the lives of poverty stricken Gambians. The average Gambian live below the poverty line.
