Whilst I welcome President Jammeh announcing the
appointment of a new cabinet, I am wonder whether he
has acted lawfully. The Constitution of the Gambia
clearly stipulates two things which President Jammeh
has not complied with;

Firtsly, The Cabinet must not consist of more than  15
Secretaries of State. Given the fact that only one SOS
was dropped and three new Individuals being appointed,
President Jammeh has exceeded the limit.

Secondly, I understand Bakary Njie has been appointed
SOS, once again, this is unconstitutional since the
Constitution clearly states that anyone found guilty
of corruption by a Commission of Inquiry is
disqualified from being appointed as Secretary of
State, Member of the National Assembly. As you are
aware Bakary Njie was found guilty of corruption by
the Commission of Inquiry set up to investigate
activites of GAMTEL. Moreover, he was ordered to pay
D9 million. I am yet to hear any information that the
decision of the Commission of Inquiry has been
challenged in any court to warrant his appointment as
a Senior Public Figure.

Can you therefore shed us some light on the points
mentioned above.

Have a wonderful day
