Faal, leader of the Turn Around Movement and prominent Gambian international lawyer, clarified his remarks about donkey carts, which sparked controversy after he referred to President Adama Barrow as “Adu Boy” and mentioned one of the president’s advisers was a former “donkey cart driver.”

Faal explained that his comments were meant as a euphemism to emphasize the need for qualified individuals in key positions, stating, "This is a euphemism. It means the President should appoint people with knowledge in key positions." He also criticized the current administration and called for more merit-based appointments.

: An enemy drone has entered Malian airspace: the facts

A foreign drone intruded into Malian airspace: Assimi Goïta takes measures

After the detection of the spy device, the staff considered killing it, but the Head of State demanded to verify its origin in advance.

At first, the engine seemed to belong to a friendly country, but its President contacted by Goita did not claim it, reports AES Info.

Further investigations have revealed that the drone was sent by a border country "not friendly to AES countries" but from the territory of that first country to block the runway.

Assimi Goïta has taken necessary defensive measures to prevent the same situation from repeating.
