The ultimate paragraph is MOST important in my opinion.
"Meanwhile, the public is informed that His Excellency, President Adama Barrow will attend the first ever Russia-Africa Summit taking place in Sochi in the Russian Federation, from the 23rd -24th October 2019.

October 18, 2019
State House, Banjul, 18th October 2019 – The Public is hereby informed that the airport ceremonies that are usually held whenever the President travels, either on arrival or departure, will no longer take place.
Effective immediately, seeing off the President at the Banjul International Airport shall be limited only to the Minister of Defence, Minister of Interior, Chief of Defence Staff, Inspector General of Police, and Director General of the State Intelligence Service.
The Guard of Honour will now be required only during State Visits and Special Occasions. The adjustment is in line with ongoing reforms to optimize efficiency in the public service.

Barrow and Airport Ceremonies
It was in December 2018 that State House announced changes in the airport ceremonies for the travels of the president. Those changes were said to come into effect on 1 January 2019.

Yet today the same State House announces another new change at the airport ceremonies! What happened to the 2018 changes? All indications are that those 2018 changes were never implemented because we have seen the huge crowds at the airport to bid farewell or receive the president! So why issue a new directive when the first one was ignored? Is there any guarantee that this new directive will be respected? State House needs to talk.
