As promised he is the updated version of the recent happenings in the
Gambia.

Famara Jatta's sacking is prompted by recent local media reports in which
Jatta openly confirmed to the press about Baba Jobe's tax arrears to the
state amounting to over D20million dalasis.  Jatta says Baba Jobe's youth
Development Enterprises including other business firms in the country are
owing millions of dalasi worth of tax.  These are who evading tax are said
to be in the good books of the regime and no body dared to confront them.
This revealations by Fams angered the Baba and others.  This led to the
sacking of custom's Boss mboge and three of staff, Famara Jatta and his
permanent Secretary Dodou Bamy Jagne.  GPA's Deen is also rumoured to be
fired.   Many heads will roll said my sources as Famara's statment was
perceived as an attempt to expose corrupt practices of regime.  The NIA has
been investigating the customs activities.
