>Yahya Jammeh is at it again. He has reshuffled his cabinet for the

>that he has shifted Yankuba Touray from Tourism to Infrastructure and
>re-appointed Sillah Bai as SoS Tourism. You will recall that Sillah Bai was
>fired barely a month ago. ONLY IN THE GAMBIA. Anyway, the interesting thing
>about this move by Jammeh is he is trying to create a split between two
>friends i.e. Yanks and Sillah Bai. Both are knee-high in the tourism sector
>with both having significant investments.
Now what Jammeh expects is the two to be at each others throats. Yanks
>would not want to let go of the Tourism and Sillah Bai would want to
>establish himself in the sector to his benefit. Jammeh is very well aware
>of the recent posting in the Post and G-L concerning his two ministers. He
>will watching with keen interest how these two will handle their respective
>portfolios. Sillah Bai runs the risk of being fired again for conflict of
>interest whilst Yanks will eventually go for having sold all the land in
>the TDA.
