An audio conversation between former Gambian dictator Yahya Jammeh and some members of his party is making the rounds in the West African country creating fear and panic.
The unverified audio is purported to contain the voice of the exiled leader in Equatorial Guinea hinting of a comeback as he assured his allies that he was “working on something”.
Jammeh could be heard speaking in interchangeably in Wolof, Mandinka and English in the Whatsapp audio message telling his allies, Yankuba Colley and Fabakary Tombong Jatta that Gambians have regretted voting him out of office and they are being punished for it.
“What I told you, you must see it. The Gambian people must learn their lessons and then they will understand. I have said it in three meetings during my campaign that Gambians will only know who Jammeh is when I leave office,” he said, adding that the difficulties Gambians are going through will only end if they wake up from their slumber.
He also described his party’s current leadership as liars and orders the sack of two leaders, former army major MA Bah and Boo Badgie. “They think that I will easily believe in all what they are saying, but I have a big trust and confidence in you,” he tells the two allies.
The source of the leaked video is unknown and the Gambian government has not yet made a statement about its content.
However, Gambians have expressed worry about Jammeh’s unknown intentions and about the source of the leaked audio and the motive behind it.
