A SAD WEEKEND IN THE GAMBIA AND SENEGAL AS TWO ICONIC LEADERS LOST
The people of the Gambia and Senegal have witnessed a very tragic weekend as they mourn the death of two highly respected persons.
On Saturday, the demise of the Inspector General of the Gambia Police Force was announced. Many were saddened by the sudden died of Alhagie Mamour Jobe who happen to be ill briefly which led to his death. The late IGP recently testified at the ongoing Truth Reconciliation and Reparation Commission in The Gambia. He was led to rest Sunday in Sinchu Alagie, where family, friends and colleagues paid their last respect while the police force firing gunshots in the air. We are extending our deepest condolences to the Jobe family and every Gambian.

Thione who died at the age of 66, is an inspiration to many artists in Senegal and beyond with melodious voice and powerful message in his songs.
