Top cleric Sheikh Chebo Cham has prayed to God for him to handsomely reward former President Yahya Jammeh for arresting sex workers.
The Barrow government is fighting to dig itself out of a firestorm after the government-funded National Aids Secretariat reportedly said a relief package was being lined for the country’s sex workers.
“When this thing was said, I remembered the past government, Yahya Jammeh’s government. Wallahi, they were putting sex workers in cars and jailing them,” Imam Cham in a sermon last Friday said.
The Imam added: “But for you today, you give money to sex workers in order for their work to continue.
“Those days people who have houses and turning them into motels were being arrested. May Allah reward him a handsome reward. We must tell each other the truth.”
