Gambia’s president Adama Barrow has appointed Fatoumata Tambajang, as the country’s new Vice President.
Tambajang has ever been a good mediator engaging opposition parties to create a credible gender-balanced coalition for the 2016 National Elections which resulted to her election as Chair of the Coalition that fought to effect a regime change.
Her appointment was announced by Halifa Sallah, the Spokesperson of President Adama Barrow at a Press Conference held in Banjul.
He further announced that the remaining list of Cabinet ministers will be announced later.
Tambajang did great strides to unite opposition members in defeating the former dictator Yahya Jammeh in the December 2016 presidential election, ending his 22 years rule of tiny West African nation.
