Violent clashes between Kombo South communities of Gunjur and Berending in March this year led to the death of Buba Jammeh. Mr Jammeh was allegedly shot and killed by Berending native Buba Drammeh.

Chief Lamin Darboe speaking during a summit held in Brikama as part of the Office of National Security’s nationwide consultation tour, claimed the killer of Buba Jammeh often sneaks into Gunjur.

Mr Darboe, a native of Gunjur himself, said: “He sneaks into the village every time but we suspect that some of his security friends tip him off that they’re coming to arrest h. And he would cross the border [to Senegal].”

On 16 March 2019, a communal land dispute erupted between Gunjur and Berending which saw ECOMIG forces deployed to Kombo South. Police chief Mamour Jobe had to scamper for safety after his vehicle came under attack by the people of Gunjur.
