Wild reports emerged on Sunday night of a coup in The Gambia. Security and intelligence services in country scrambled to ascertain its veracity.

The army spokesman Major Lamin K Sanyang told The Fatu Network the army is the least place a coup would come from.

He said: “They said am part of it and right now am in my house and they said the operation is happening tonight (Sunday). Is that possible?

“The TRRC is coming up tomorrow (Monday), so the people that are involved just want to create confusion or chaos around that.

“It’s impossible, nobody is going to buy a coup detat in this 21st century. The Gambia Armed Forces is the least [where it will come from].

“There is no room for that in the armed forces because we know where that has taken us so why would we go back and…

“So the whole thing doesn’t make sense. The only thing one can make out of it is probably it has to do with people that have to do with the TRRC.”
