BAC DE BALINGHOR Quand l’argent règle tout

Point de passage pour les voyageurs et marchandises en provenance de Ziguinchor ou des autres capitales régionales, le Bac Balinghor ou Farafégné, en Guinée Bissau, se présente comme le lieu où l’argent dicte sa loi sur tout.

 

Passage obligé pour  tout voyageur qui emprunte la Transgambienne et qui veut retrouver la Casamance, à l'autre bout du territoire sénégalais, le célèbre Bac Balinghor ou Farafégné sur le fleuve Gambie du territoire du même nom, enregistre chaque jour plusieurs milliers d’entrées et sorties de voyageurs dont l’écrasante majorité sont sénégalais. En cette période marquée par une combinaison de différents facteurs en relation directe avec le désenclavement de la Casamance la Trans gambienne a presque vu en quelques jour doubler sa fréquentation de voitures de transports en commun. Il s’agit entre autres, de la suspension des rotations du navire Aline Sitoé Diatta pour des raisons de carnage, le mauvais état de la route de contournement par Tamba, l’avion toujours inaccessible aux bourses moyennes (environ 65000f Cfa, aller simple) et l’accalmie notée ces derniers jours sur l'axe Sénoba-Ziguinchor.

Former Jammeh Press Secretary Vows To Expose Jammeh's Secrets If He Ever Talks About Her On GRTS Or Any Other Forum!!!

Dictator Yahya Jammeh has been warned by his former Press Secretary Fatou Camara to desist from ever mentioning her name in his TV appearances, or speeches otherwise, he (Jammeh) risked being exposed by Ms. Camara. Fatou Camara said she is waiting for the day, when Yahya Jammeh will come forward to talk evil against her; then she would be left with no alternative other than telling the world about the other ugly part of Yahya Jammeh's hidden life. Ms. Camara has promised her audience and followers about her planned move to spill the beans in coming days by exposing Jammeh's sex life, cheating lifestyle as a married man and other dubious activities perpetrated by the deranged Kanilai dictator. She also said she is privy to the dictator's secrets and once she exposes the story on Freedom radio, Jammeh is likely to be devastated by Fatou's revelations. She is not only going to present material evidence to back up her claims, she also hinted about mentioning the names of Jammeh's sexual partners, places, and other incriminating and embarrassing revelations against the dictator.

Gambia -PIU Officer Mamadi Manjang Was Killed By Jungullar Saul Sambou At The Abuko Bridge After Sambou Ran Over Him With His Car!!!

By A Concerned Gambian

Pa, I firmly believe that Yahya Jammeh is in the business of faking car accidents in his quest to eliminate potential opponents. I want to add credence to your radio program. A member of the police intervention unit Mamadi Manjang was killed last year under similar circumstances. Mamadi Manjang is related to Sana Manjang. They come from the same family. Mamadi is also a blood cousin to EX Army Major Kalipfa Bajinka.

Mr. Manjang was ran over at the Abuko Bridge while on duty by one of Jammeh’s assassin team members Saul Sambou. While on duty, Mr. Sambou phoned Mr. Mamadi Manjang by asking Manjang about his exact location. Mr. Sambou later showed up at the Abuko bridge, where he ran over Mamadi Manjang and killed him on the spot.
