L.R.D GETS NEW GOVERNOR
By Abdou Yanka
Two days before the September 22nd Presidential elections, Mr. Momodou Soma jobe was re appointed as Governor for the Lower River Division (LRD). Mr. Soma Jobe had in the past served as the Commissioner of URD and NBD. His service was terminated and he was subsequently arrested and charged for stealing over four hundred bags of sugar, which was given to the people of North Bank Division. However, the charges were later dropped by the state and he was acquitted.
Mr. Jobe replaced Mr. Lamin F.S Manneh who was one time Mr. Jobe’s assistant. The new Governor and some APRC militants in Jarra were in the past accused of reporting civil servants for allegedly sympatising with the opposition. Now that Mr. Jobe is made Governor, many people are living in fear. He had in the past banned civil servants in the URD, from reading newspapers.
