In the Gambia, a section of the public perceived the government of the day as very corrupt.

In fact a recent Afrobarometer survey revealed most Gambians perceived the office of the president, the national assembly and the police as one of the most corrupt institutions.

The Anti-Corruption Bill still drags its feet in the national assembly chambers with very little progress made on its enactment.

In this poem, poet, Charty Da Poet narrates the ordeals of corruption in the Gambian society.
