Historic Progress Towards Justice: UN Expert Applauds Special Tribunal for The Gambia.

jan,15,2025,Chaw Tv Reports?

Tribunal Set to Address Crimes from Yahya Jammeh's Era

Bernard Duhaime, the Special Rapporteur focused on truth, justice, and reparation, has praised the formation of the Special Tribunal for The Gambia, calling it a "historic step towards accountability and justice for victims." This tribunal aims to address severe human rights abuses and crimes committed during the rule of former President Yahya Jammeh, spanning from July 1994 to January 2017. On December 15, 2024, the Authority of Heads of State and Government of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) approved the establishment of this tribunal. As a hybrid court, it will blend domestic and international legal elements to prosecute crimes such as torture, extrajudicial killings, enforced disappearances, and crimes against humanity.

Foundation in Truth Commission Recommendations

The tribunal's creation is in line with the recommendations from The Gambia's Truth, Reconciliation, and Reparations Commission (TRRC). The TRRC was tasked with investigating the atrocities committed under Jammeh's regime, identifying 68 individuals, including Jammeh, security personnel, and high-ranking officials, as allegedly involved in crimes like r**e, torture, and extrajudicial killings. Duhaime remarked on the slow progress in implementing the TRRC's recommendations, stating that sustained concerns have been raised about the ongoing climate.

Ghana's President Reduces Ministries to Curtail Government Spending.

January,15,2025,Chaw Tv Reports?

In a decisive move to streamline government operations and reduce expenditures, Ghana's newly inaugurated president has announced a significant reduction in the number of government ministries, cutting them from 30 to 23. This strategic decision, declared by executive decree, marks a significant shift in the country's administrative structure and reflects a commitment to fiscal prudence.

The reduction has led to the abolition of several ministries that were created under the administration of former President Akufo-Addo. Notable among these are the Ministries of Information, Sanitation, National Security, and Parliamentary Affairs. The decision underscores a shift in focus toward more efficient governance and a more consolidated approach to managing national affairs.

This restructuring is aimed at improving the effectiveness of government operations while addressing the pressing need to manage resources more judiciously. By reducing the number of ministries, the government seeks to cut down on administrative costs and enhance the delivery of services to the populace.

The move has sparked discussions on the optimal configuration of government ministries to best serve the public interest while ensuring economic sustainability. Observers are keen to see how this restructuring will impact the overall governance and efficiency of public service delivery in Ghana.

Considerations for Cameroon

In light of this development in Ghana, it prompts a reflection on which ministries might be considered for elimination in other countries facing similar economic challenges, such as Cameroon. Each country's context is unique, but the overarching goal remains the same: to enhance government efficiency and reduce unnecessary spending.

In Cameroon, an evaluation of the current ministries could be conducted to identify those that may be redundant or could be merged with others to streamline operations. For instance, ministries with overlapping functions could be consolidated to avoid duplication of efforts and resources. It might also be beneficial to assess ministries that can be decentralized or whose functions can be effectively managed at a regional level.

Ultimately, the decision on which ministries to eliminate or consolidate should be based on a careful analysis of their impact on development goals, economic efficiency, and the overall welfare of the citizens. Public consultation and expert recommendations should guide this process to ensure transparency and inclusivity in decision-making.

In conclusion, while Ghana's recent decision to reduce its ministries is a bold step towards fiscal responsibility, it serves as a reminder of the importance of continually evaluating government structures to ensure they align with the nation's priorities and economic realist.

Today Chaw Tv Gambia brings you a special public health notice,that occurs mostly in women's:

Fibroids, also known as uterine leiomyomas, are non-cancerous growths that develop in or on the uterus. They are prevalent among women of childbearing age, with estimates suggesting that up to 70-80% of women will develop fibroids by the age of 50.

The exact cause of fibroids remains unclear, but several factors are believed to contribute to their development. Hormones such as estrogen and progesterone, which regulate the menstrual cycle, are thought to promote the growth of fibroids. Genetics also play a role, as women with a family history of fibroids are more likely to develop them. Additionally, factors like obesity and dietary habits have been linked to an increased risk of fibroids.

Symptoms of Fibroid Sickness

Fibroids can vary in size, number, and location within the uterus, leading to a wide range of symptoms. Some women may not experience any symptoms at all, while others may encounter significant discomfort. Common symptoms include:

- Heavy Menstrual Bleeding: One of the most prevalent symptoms is prolonged or heavy menstrual periods, sometimes with blood clots. - Pelvic Pain and Pressure: Fibroids can cause a feeling of pressure or fullness in the lower abdomen, leading to.

On December 10, 2024, the World Bank Group announced the approval of $30 million in financing from the International Development Association (IDA) to aid The Gambia in increasing its economic productivity. This financial assistance is aimed at boosting the country's procurement systems, strengthening the economic governance of state-owned enterprises (SOEs), enhancing domestic revenue mobilization, and fostering climate and social resilience.

The initiative, known as the Gambia Second Boosting Resilience and Unlocking Productive Potential Development Policy Financing project, is part of a broader support package. This package is crafted to help The Gambia consolidate its socio-economic development gains and reform efforts, particularly as the nation continues to recover from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Wilfried A. Kouame, the World Bank Senior Economist and Task Team Leader of the project, highlighted the importance of accelerating transformational reforms. "While The Gambia is experiencing promising economic growth despite recent external challenges, structural obstacles remain. To fully unlock its growth potential and improve the living standards of its vulnerable populations, the country must prioritize and accelerate transformational reforms—precisely what this support aims to achieve," he stated.

Mayor Of Kmc Talib Ahmed Bensuda Vow's About The Poor Leadership System In Gambia.U.S. Embassy Banjul, The Gambia

In recent remarks, Talib Ahmed Bensouda, the Lord Mayor of the Kanifing Municipal Council, highlighted the pressing issue of poor leadership in The Gambia, which he believes has stunted the nation's development. Despite its small size, Bensouda argues that The Gambia possesses the potential to become a thriving service hub, given the right visionary governance. The primary obstacle, he asserts, is the lack of effective leadership focused on democratic sustainability and long-term development goals.

In an interview with The Point during the United Democratic Party's (UDP) nationwide tour, Bensouda emphasized the party's commitment to fostering positive change in The Gambia. Led by Lawyer Ousainu Darboe, the UDP tour is less about critiquing the government and more about showcasing what the party can offer to improve citizens' lives. Bensouda pointed out that while holding the government accountable is essential, the UDP is dedicated to delivering a clear, positive message centered on enhancing basic services.

The tour, commencing on December 7, 2024, aims to engage Gambians, reassuring them of the UDP's dedication to addressing the challenges they face. Bensouda noted that Gambians are weary of political infighting and are seeking change. He criticized the mismanagement of limited national resources, such as the funds allocated to the president's "Meet The People Tour," which could have been better used to.
