Throwing millions like a drunken boozer, it provokes curiosity to ask where on earth Jemus AJJJJ is getting all the money from. Can someone tell us how much Gambia government allocates for the position of president ? If it is less than One Million Dalasi, then Jemus AJJJJJ has to tell us where he is getting the money he lavishly dishes out. Is there a secret printing facility in the bunkers ?

Several decent Gambian elders and politician arrested and detained for alleged misappropriation of less than 14 million Dalasi over 30 years. One trigger happy army captain posing as head of state lavishly distributed more than 25 million Dalasi to football players and supporters in the course of two hours. This gun man was able to amass such a personal illicit wealth in less than 15 years, half the time it has taken the deposed regime in power.
Where then is accountability, tranparency, and probity ? Captain, we want to know where you looted all the money flying about. Not from your salary at all. Do you have a secret minting facility in the Kanilai bunkers.
The big envelopes, brown, white and so on that you deliver to sycophants who visit you, where is that money coming from dear captain ? |

It's the billion $$$ question, Karamba, but it's an open secret that HE dosen't rely only on his meager Presidential salary. You connect the dots, and a whole bag/safe of worms start tumbling down...........£$€¥!

Thank you Kitabul Arerr. So long we know HE is not escaping with the loot unnoticed, then it is practical to balance the account when the time comes. This is no magic. We are not buying tricks. HE is not getting all that money by sweat.
Unfortunately money is not able to buy all that HE wants for his ambition of whatever, however, whenever.
HE thinks that the economic engine is easily fixed by pumping more blood money. More money pumping, and the economy is dead. |

Even if you don't vote for me, I will get demons to fill the ballot boxes with green tokens. Even for animals when you do for them all that I have done for you, they will be grateful" |

The president's salary is not fix by any legislation, contrary to the Constitution. Therefore, his salary can be D1million, D10million or even D100million. It all depends on what Jammeh thinks he is worth,

Nyarikangbanna, we need a hot iron to tear part captain Jemus Jammeh and that seat. To some extent many people are baffled in thinking that what Jammeh is doing at will is by permits of the regulations and that he is in fact not one of the presidents but THE president till end of time.
It makes more sense if we set a salary for president of Gambia though we know Yaya Jammeh will not respect that for now. He does not feel abiding and nothing seems to improve on that misconduct. |

Karamba, it does not only make sense for us, through our representative in parliament, to set a fix salary for the President, it is also a constiutional requirement that the President's salary should be fixed by parliament, a requirement that Jammeh and his APRC MPs have no regards for.

Unless PDOIS produces a legislative document, promulgated by parliament, that fixed the President' salary to D52, 000. I will regard their projection as a good estimate that lacks authoritative back-up.
Even if the president is being paid D52, 000 as remuneration, that doesn't mean that his salary is fix to that amount. In the absence of a legislative promulgation, he can ask for more or less in a given month, according to the dictate of his whims and caprices.
As far as facts are concern, no legislative promulgation exists since 2002 that provides a fix salary for the President. He is paid from a special fund called The Consolidated Fund and his level of pay is not limited by any power or authority either legal or political.
I think sometimes it is necessary that we separate the politics from the law in the interest of clarity.
Thanks

Thank you Nyarikangbanna and Kobo for this useful leads. Nyarikang, when you stated that 'he' is paid so much I understand this to mean you are referring to a person named Yaya Jammeh. A whole confusion is created by Yaya as he takes everything for himself. He makes people believe that it is alright he does what he wants because he is PRESIDENT.
This thread is strictly about salary of Gambian president and does not recognise the whole bunch of Jammeh's personal loot. That I know has no limit. As Gambians strive to clean up the mess caused by 17 years misrule, it is time we start asking questions like this so that the next national leader does not take Jammeh's bad precedence for a system.
We need hot iron to tear anyone from sticking on a public seat and making people believe that's normal. A Gambian president with limited and fixed salary will not lavishly blow away money like Yaya Jammeh is doing. Better we start the correction from now. The ways that Yaya Jammeh relates to position of president is terribly bad. Our next president is warned not to get near the line of Jammeh. Corruption and crime are pride for those calling it whatever. |
