The Morning Call
Gambia is in the process of prepares to change the constitution through a referendum.
Attorney General and Justice Minister Abubacarr Tambadou said Thursday the new national charter would entirely replace the 1997 version written largely to consolidate Jammeh’s power after he took control in a 1994 coup.
A Constitutional Review Commission would consult a broad cross-section of society for a maximum two-year period, Tambadou said, to “reflect faithfully and accurately the views of the generality of Gambians both at home and abroad.”
