MA Bah told the TRRC on Thursday he did speak with Lang Tombong Tamba about Ndure Cham’s coup shortly after leaving the former army chief’s office.
LTT was the deputy CDS at the time and MA Bah said he entered his office shortly after leaving Ndure Cham’s and told him how Cham planned to carry out a coup and wanted him to join.
“He looked at me in the eye and said, ‘look, shut your mouth’. That was how I left his office,” MA Bah said contradicting accounts by LTT that they spoke about the coup.
When told LTT has dismissed ever discussing with him about a coup, Bah replied: “He’s not telling the truth.”
He later told the probe Tamba called him on the day he was supposed to enter the witness box and told him he was working on ensuring his release.
