Training of the Ombudsman's Staff on Provincial Decentralised Governance

As you all know, today we commemorate Africa Day in honour of the creation of the African Union’s (AU) forerunner, the Organisation of African Unity, which was founded on this day, 57 years ago. The idea at the time was to establish guidelines for and to facilitate strong relationships between independent African States.

The new Ombudsman of Gambia is Mr. Bakary Sanyang, former governor of West Coast Region appointed by President Barrow on Apr 7, 2020 and approved by the National Assembly on the 19th of May 2020 to replace Mrs. Fatou Njie-Jallow who was the Ombudsman since 2014.
