In The Gambia, presidential adviser Henry Gomez has dismissed former President Yahya Jammeh’s recent audio statement as mere rhetoric. Jammeh had claimed he would return to the country to reclaim leadership of his political party.
Gomez assured the public that should Jammeh return to The Gambia, he would be arrested and prosecuted. This strong response comes after Jammeh’s continued remarks from exile about his plans to regain political control.
