President Yahya Jammeh of the Gambia has used the 21st anniversary of the July 22nd to grant mass amnesty to political prisoners, murderers, rapists and drug dealers serving various jail terms in the country.

In his beautiful speech at the July 22nd Square in Banjul, He said the decision to grant the amnesty is based on the Islamic teachings of forgiveness and his firm believe in Allah and all those convicted of treason from 1994 to 2013 and are now on death row or serving life sentences are hereby pardoned,” he told a gathering of school children and supporters

Mr Jammeh added: “As from today, all those convicted of murder and have served ten years and above are hereby pardoned. All those who have been convicted of possession of cannabis especially young people except repeat offenders are hereby pardoned.

“Those convicted of trafficking cannabis and hard drugs such as cocaine and heroin and have served three years and above and five years and above respectively are hereby pardoned. People jailed for raping women aged 20 and above from 1994 to 2013 are also forgiven.”

Mr Jammeh said he is also granting amnesty to Gambians abroad, who are currently wanted for treason and other offences against his regime.

However, the president said his amnesty would not be extended to four people namely; a cannibal who murdered a woman on a farm, cut her body into pieces and ate part of her flesh; a man who killed his elderly wife and threatened to kill his children for opposing his decision to marry a second wife; and two Nigerian men, Michael Ifunaya Chukwubikem and Agbaeze Ugochukwu Stanley who brutally murdered a British expatriate, Ian Stoke, in May 2012 and people convicted of infanticide.
Mr Jammeh warned all the pardoned prisoners to abide by the law.

“The relatives of all those who are going to be pardoned must be warned that they must never be on the wrong side of the law for the next ten years otherwise there would be trouble,” he said. “Drugs, murder, rape are not going to be tolerated in this country.”

I am not ready for you this morning...Well, I am happy that some people will have their freedom after years in detention. Meanwhile, I will never support granting Boko Haram amnesty. Boko Haram are terrorist, demons, Satanic agents with no objective.
