Sergeant Adama Jagne of The Gambia Armed Forces recently admitted to a National Assembly committee that he cannibalized government vehicles. The vehicles, identified as assets of former President Yahya Jammeh, were under his care at the Mechanical Services Agency in Kotu.
The Gambian National Assembly has adopted a motion calling for the establishment of a commission to protect customary land rights and promote fair land governance. Tabled by Hon. Sulayman Saho, the motion addresses widespread land grabbing, forced evictions, and weak legal protections, particularly for rural communities, women, and youth, aiming to secure land as a foundation of identity and livelihood.
