The Gambian government has disclosed that it obtained a significant financial injection following the sale of a former president’s property in the United States. Authorities revealed the transaction involved a mansion previously owned by the country’s ex-leader, generating proceeds for the national treasury. While details on how the funds will be allocated remain unspecified, the sale marks a notable chapter in the post-presidential asset recovery process. The disclosure comes amid ongoing scrutiny of foreign assets tied to former African leaders.
The Gambia confirmed it received $2.5m from the sale of a US mansion belonging to former president Jammeh.
