Yahya Jammeh, the authoritarian former ruler of The Gambia who went into exile at the weekend, stole millions of dollars in his final weeks in power, plundering the state coffers and shipping out luxury vehicles by cargo plane, a special adviser to the new president, Mai Ahmad Fatty, has claimed.

Jammeh, who took power in the former British colony in 1994, initially accepted his defeat at an election in December but then reversed his decision and clung to power until forced out by a regional military force and international pressure.

President Adama Barrow, the opposition politician who conclusively won the polls and was sworn in last week in neighbouring Senegal, is expected to return shortly.

Barrow took refuge in Senegal because of concerns for his safety when it became clear Jammeh was unwilling to give up power.

At a press conference in Senegal, Fatty, told journalists the president “will return home as soon as possible”.

The Gambia Moral Congress (GMC) leader, Mai Ahmad Fatty has maintained his stance that he would have preferred to join President Adama Barrow to the opposition and said those who said he is broke reveal more about them.

In an interview with Kerr Fatou last Thursday, the GMC leader revealed that he would have preferred to join president Barrow to the opposition in the 2021 presidential election.

The GMC leader was well criticized on social media for the comment, including a prominent opposition, Mc Cham Jr., National Youth President of the Gambia Democratic Congress (GDC).

The GDC Youth Leader told the Voice Newspaper last that the former Interior Minister and special adviser, and Gambia Moral Congress Leader is “bankrupt”.

What Can We Learn From Rising Baby’ Factories, Trade And Effect In Nigeria?

We have lost character as a region. It has been a case of uncertainty of some sort, if you know what makes some orphanage homes, hospitals and clinics, religious centers masquerading as syndicate in the baby farming industry and trade in local and illicit international market. You will weep for humanity. As baby’s farming syndicates have strong network and background voice, it will beats your imagination that some of them could be operating next door, and wonder how their antics always beat security personnel too. This business is spinning and more people are rolling in everyday. In this market, demand is always higher than supply. There is ready, ready for cash transfer and so cash deposit is no big deal, making money by farming babies for sales in Nigeria is a serious illegal business meant for those who can pay highest. In hospitals, body parts of patients are missing unnecessary. These parts are trafficked for transplanting abroad, and are for those who can pay bills. So many things happen these days.
