Freedom Newspaper Award Winning Lawyer Mai Fatty Exposes Yahya Jammeh and Co!!

“I believe in the right to constitutionality and good governance. And if this will land me in trouble, then I’m happy to be in trouble all the time.” Says Lawyer Fatty

“Baba K Jobe donated a power of attorney to me, whilst under custody, authorizing me exclusively to negotiate the withdrawal of his property guarantee in favor of Julakay Enterprises. Now this was necessary because Mr. Jobe claimed to be the majority shareholder in this enterprise, while the minority shareholder at the time was busy trying to disposes him of his shares and changing the papers. As his personal family attorney, even before his economic crime trial, I sought to carry out his instructions, but the DPP who wanted to make look like there was a conspiracy between Mr. Jobe and I to move his resources out, trying to make big thing out of it without presenting any such evidence in court. The power of attorney donated in my favor by Mr. Jobe was registered with the state as required by law and that was how they knew about it. I registered it with the state as a public document and brought it to their attention because we wanted transparency. Unfortunately, it appeared they were more interested to put my client in bad public light. The power was subsequently revoked to allay fears as well as to disarm those who were looking to use it against my client and perhaps myself for ill motive. Like I indicated, absolutely nothing went wrong. But the DPP wanted build a mountain out of it and use it as an indication that Mr. Jobe has resources and these resources were intended to be secretly transferred out of the country. Now there is no iota of truth in this. In order to neutralize the effect, the possible effect of this colossal fabrication, Mr. Jobe and I we discussed and decided that we should revoke this whole matter to put an end to these unfounded speculations. “ These were the exact words of Gambia’s leading Human Rights Lawyer Mai Fatty, who recently survives an assassination attempt.
