Maafanta Proprietor and Publisher spoke at a recent Freedom Forum  held in the Norwegian capital Oslo. Madam Fatou Jaw Manneh provided an account of her arrest, detention and subsequent prosecution by the Gambia’s dictatorial regime a few years ago. She explained the harrowing details of what happened to her while being detained and how a mercenary magistrate in the person of Buba Jawo presided over her case.  A very insightful narrative worth listening to!

    This Nyancho girl always do us Gambians very proud in particular. This is what I would call tit for tat. Yahya Jammeh sat on television and insulted mandinkas. And what did he have in return?? A proud Gambian lady of Manden origin, in the person of Fatou Jaw Manneh, took to an international stage and called him “a punk president”. I am very happy today. Gambians are not having ghastly insults anymore.
