Gambia
When Adama Barrow took over from authoritarian Gambian ruler Yahya Jammeh, Barrow was expected to usher in a renaissance after 22 brutal years under Jammeh. In the five years that he has been president of The Gambia, Barrow has been expected to reconcile relationships and build the economy.
Jammeh was in-charge of The Gambia for nearly half of the country’s post-independence lifespan. The shadow of dictatorial reign still hovers over the small West African nation.
Barrow will be judged on December 4, 2021 according to how much he has washed off the stains of Jammeh’s reign.
