President Yahya Jammeh, has started collecting monies he realized from the African Union villas, in Brufut, as each of the villas were being sold at the tune of D9 Million dalasis, the Freedom Newspaper can authoritatively report. The sale of these properties was being coordinated by Mustapha Njie, AKA Taf Construction. Mr. Njie is said to be President Jammeh's new errand boy in town. Over 30 Million dalasis has been received by President Jammeh in respect of the said sale of the Brufut villas. Taf is not a government official, but sources say he travels with President Jammeh within and outside of the country. According to our sources, the Brufut villas were being bought by European tourists. A certain Gambian name withheld who had a European husband was one of those who bought the exorbitant AU villas. Sources say there is no accountability in the sale process and proceeds of the much talked about villas goes directly into President Yahya Jammeh's pockets. It is gathered that several millions of dalasis were realized from the sale of the said properties, which the government of Taiwan partly funded. President Jammeh is said to be claiming that he uses his own money to built the villas, even though private donors such as Taiwan had pumped several  millions of dalasis to ensure the success of the AU Summit. Iran was also said to have helped him to built such magnificent  and luxurious villas.

Taf far left, Jammeh and Bajo-The gang of three denying Gambians millions of dollars!!!


Well placed state house sources say the President told Taf to hand deliver monies secured from the said sales directly to him. The same sources hinted that both Jammeh and Taf had secretly reached a deal to share the money and give government a small portion of it. It is gathered that the prices for the AU villas were inflated in a bid to secure kickbacks. Sources say Taf had recruited his own people to help him dispose the villas, but Gambian businessmen complained that the prices were exorbitant.

The Freedom Newspaper was told during the cause of its investigations that Lamin Kaba Bajo Secretary of State For Foreign Affairs, Yankuba Touray and Aziz Tamba were also assigned to look for buyers with the promise of compensating them. Lamin Kaba Bajo has been Taf's close partner in their racketing scandals to ripoff the West African country. The two were blamed for the Brufut land graping and the Sinchuiyahai land scandal. 

 Taf corrupted Lands Ministry officials including Bajo to confiscate the private properties of the Manneh family in Burufut.  Now that he had succeeded in corrupting  President Jammeh, Taf is posed to realize his land dream over the years.  Sources say most of the millions of dalasis  contracts awarded to Taf were never subjected to tender. The President according to these sources, say Taf don't need a competitor in the construction industry since he was ready to listen to him. Taf said sources, is patronizing President Jammeh in many ways just to win favors from him. Taf and Jammeh are  making millions of dalasis these days.
