ABDOULIE KUJABI ADMITTED AT THE RVTH
The former Director of the National Intelligence Agency, Mr. Abdoulie Kujabi, who was arrested since March 22nd in connection to the March 21st abortive coup plot, is admitted in the Royal Victoria Teaching Hospital in Banjul.
Mr. Kujabi was taken to the hospital several weeks ago and has since then been admitted. It is not clear what he was diagnosed with.
Reports have it that his condition is improving. In a separate development, Captain Bunja Darboe, former Public Relations Officer of the Gambia National Army, was on Friday taken to the RVTH under heavy armed escort. He was also taken for X-ray examination.
Looking at him from a fairly close distance, one can easily suggest that the former army PRO’s two hands have been broken. When the X-rays were conducted, Bunja was taken back to Mile 2 Central Prisons, where he is detained for his alleged involvement in the March 21st abortive coup plot.
In another development Mr. Kemo Balajo, former Internal Operations Commander who was released last week, was rearrested by the security forces. He was detained for allegedly taking part in the March 21st alleged abortive coup plot.
CORPORAL EBRIMA CAMARA PASSES AWAY
By Yaya Dampha
Corporal Ebrima Camara of The Gambia National Army is reported to have died while in service. According to the public relations officer of the Gambia Armed Force (GAF) Lt. Lamin Gano, Corporal Camara died when he negligently fired his own weapon, which subsequently killed him. He said Camara’s body was handed to his family and was given a decent burial at his home town in Passé in North Bank Division (NBD).
Corporal Camara’s family members confirmed the death of their relative. The family said they were informed of Ebrima’s death and that his body was handed over to them. Remours have it that before his untimely death, Ebrima Camara was arrested and detained but the GAF PRO dismissed such remours.
In another development, Foroyaa was informed that Corporal, Buba Mendy was arrested by the Security forces three weeks ago. The GAF Spokesperson however said he could not confirm Buba Mendy’s arrest. He said he had enquired about the matter, but he could not establish anything regarding the allege arrest of Buba Mendy as at that date. The Spokesperson said he did not know which unit of the army corporal Mendy belongs to. Our reporter further told him that Buba Mendy was enlisted in the army in 1990 and he was recruited in intake number fourteen (14) Lt. Gano said he did not know Mendy, but promised to find out more about him. See next issue for developments on the issue.

The clandestine maiming, killing and subsequent burials, presently going on within the gambian military ranks, is emblematic of the fact that Yaya will not voluntarily relinquish power. I have a disturbuing feeling that mayhem looms in the air of Gambia's immediate political future.
Understandably, reprobates that at the press of a button become leaders, do fall disasterously out of grace. |
