Ahead of March polls -Bissau authorities begin registration of 35,000 nationals in Gambia
As the dust surrounding the upcoming March 16th presidential and parliamentary elections gather pace, the Bissau-Guinean authorities have begun the biometric voter registration process of its 35,000 nationals in The Gambia.
The process that began earlier this week came against the backdrop of a series of sensitisation programmes by the Bissau-Guinean authorities in Banjul.
Polls in Bissau were initially scheduled for November 24th, 2013 after a military coup cancelled the 2012 elections, but due to several logistical problems and other administrative constraints, it has been shifted to March 16 2014. Given the length of the transitional period, authorities are poised to conduct the elections come what may.

Gambia - Threaten A Soldier Who Looks At Him Weirdly At The Wrestling Ground; Soldier Sarjo Badjie Yanked Out From JK’s Security Detail!
Last Saturday while in Kanilai with our sick “President Jallow Kanilai” a rather embarrassing incident happened at the park. The paranoid and confused JK confronted one of our soldiers Sarjo Badjie and verbally assaulted him in my presence. Sarjo Badjie is married to JK’s niece Ndey Jammeh. JK’s beef against Sarjo was; he said he doesn’t like the way Sarjo looks at him while he (JK) was at the park behaving foolish and stupid while a wrestling contest he organized was in high gears.
We escorted the President from his little villa in Kanilai to a nearby park, where he was acting crazy by touching and robbing his hands on the wrestlers heads and body. JK would occasionally pretend to be praying for the wrestlers by putting his praying beads on their head.

Pa, This is The Soldier again. Permission to write SIR. My able boss.jpg)
we just finished our Saturday meeting at our head quarters in Dakar, we have received a lot of updates from Banjul. We are working on many stories. One story is that very soon the vice president will be replaced by the tourism minister, TIME WILL TELL. The other update we have for you my able boss is that dictator Jammeh sickness is getting worst. He is taking some medicine which makes him sleep a lot and when he is awake he talks very slow. Do you know that dictator Jammeh refused to have surgery in France. When the whole procedure was explained to him, he refused surgery and issued directives that he should fly back home. He wanted a quick surgery and did not want to stay in France for a long time. Devil Zeinab was very mad at dictator Jammeh and that is one of the reasons why she did not come back.
Gambia - JK'S New Year Gift To The Press: Taranga Radio And Standard Newspaper Reopen!
JK'S New Year Gift To The Press: "Tip Taranga radio and The Standard newspaper are announced opened by GRTS. You may monitor GRTS news for details," My source hinted. JK is busy appeasing the nation after the collateral damage that he has inflicted on both the Standard and Taranaga. Ismaila Ceesay was forced into exile to settle in the UK, while Sheriff Bojang was rendered jobless for over a year. JK's relationship with the press is like that of cat and mouse. Let wait and see who will be his next victim in his crusade to end press freedom.
The opening of the Taranga and Standard Newspaper was part of the European Union Article 8, 17 Point Demands, which Jammeh had earlier rubbishes as an attempt to install a puppet government in Banjul. Slowly, but the surely, the mighty EU would accomplish its agenda--by ensuring that the regime in Banjul embarks on governance reform. Jammeh cannot rule the Gambia in isolation. He needs that EU money, he often calls "Chicken Change money" to run his government.
As we speak, the health sector is in complete tatters. There are no drugs in our health facilities across the country. Salaries for Civil Servants are being delayed largely due to lack of funds to pay workers.
Dictator Jammeh Missing In The Public View Amid Ailing Health Condition; SG Sabally Bars From Accessing Jammeh At This Hour; Jammeh Is Between Life And Death!
By The Soldier
Pa, This is The Solder again. Permission to write my able boss. Pa and fellow Gambians state house is tight and security is high. The Soldier can assure you that something is terribly wrong with dictator Jammeh and nobody including superKanja SG Sabally can see him. We cannot confirm if he had the surgery, but it appears that he underwent some type of medical treatment and the Syrian doctors have taken over. No Gambian doctor or Cuban doctor is allowed to see dictator Jammeh. Only Syrian doctors and co-president Saul Badjie can see dictator Jammeh. Dictator Jammeh is indoors and not coming out. SOMETHING IS WRONG.
