Alieu Jobe has lifted the lid on how former military aide to former President Yahya Jammeh Musa Jammeh arrested him following his implication in the March 2006 coup.
Jobe, the country’s former accountant general was arrested in his office shortly after the March 2006 coup plot.
On Monday, he told the TRRC it was Musa Jammeh who said ‘we came for you’ after the feared military man showed up at his office with two soldiers equipped with AK-47 rifles.
According to Jobe, he was put in a tinted-glass Nissan patrol car and taken to the NIA with Jammeh asking him a question as they arrived at the NIA.
“That’s where he asked me a question about ‘on the whole you know something about this foiled coup’. I told him I don’t know. He told me ‘okay, I will take you to Mile 2 and you will spend the rest of your life in Mile 2’. I told him, ‘Thank you very much because you’re not God’,” Jobe told the TRRC.
