The Office of the President of the
Republic of The Gambia wishes to inform the general public that the
Honourable Attorney General and Minister of Justice of the Republic of
The Gambia, Mr Abubacarr Marie Tambadou, has submitted his resignation
as Attorney General and Minister of Justice to His Excellency, President
Barrow, and His Excellency, President Barrow has accepted same with
effect from 30 June 2020.
President Barrow would like to take this
opportunity to sincerely thank Attorney General Tambadou for his
patriotic and selfless service to the country, for his steadfastness,
honesty, professionalism and candour during his tenure as Attorney
General and Minister of Justice. He has successfully initiated and
diligently executed several of the Government’s key governance reform
activities such as the establishment of the Constitutional Review
Commission, the Truth, Reconciliation and Reparations Commission, the
National Human Rights Commission, the Janneh and Faraba Banta
Commissions of Inquiry, and several other legislative reforms. With his
guidance, we have now transformed our judiciary in particular and the
administration of justice system in general into a truly independent and
robust organ of the State that all Gambians should be proud of.
He also helped restore The Gambia’s
regional and international image and leadership in the global human
rights movement. Every Gambian should be proud of his achievements.
Therefore, His Excellency, President Barrow, his entire Cabinet, and the
Government of The Gambia wish Attorney General Tambadou well in his
future endeavours.
Consequently, pursuant to the provisions
of Section 71(1) and 71(3) of the Constitution of the Republic of the
Gambia, His Excellency, President Barrow, has appointed Mr. Dawda A.
Jallow as Attorney General and Minister of Justice from 1 July 2020.
