> JAMMEH DECREES TRAVEL BAN AGAINST GAMTEL, CENTRAL BANK, AND OTHER LINE MINISTRIES
> Gambia’s financial meltdown warranted a Government decree banning official trips for public officials with immediate effect, according to Information Ministry memo obtained by the Freedom Newspaper. The decision was reached during the just concluded Government retreat in Kanilai—the home village of dictator Yahya Jammeh, where cabinet discusses the nation’s uncertain so called Vision 20-20 blueprint developmental program. The new travel ban, the first of its kind affects all Government Ministries, including The Gambia Telecommunication Company GAMTEL.
> Writing on behalf of the Secretary General and Head of the Civil Service, Mr. Muhamadou Lamin Jaiteh, in a Memo dated June 16 titled “ Freeze on taxes on all allowances of public enterprises, Authorities, and Agencies” said an Executive Directive has been given for a moratorium to be placed on the payment of fringe benefit tax for all public enterprise, National authorities, and agencies, including the Central Bank of The Gambia till further notice.
> By a copy of this letter, Mr. Jaiteh went on “all Government Ministries should inform public enterprises as well as National authorities and agencies under their purview that taxes on staff allowances are frozen with effect from end May 2011.” “Gambia Revenue Authority is hereby instructed to act on the above directive with immediate effect.”
> As Gambians are bracing up for change, more and more disturbing revelations are emerging from Jammeh’s bankrupt regime. Below is the GAMTEL whistleblower’s latest dispatch to the Freedom Newspaper. Please read on.
