Former Minister of Information Demba Ali Jawo has said that the position of the current Minister of Interior Yankuba Sonko seems to be untenable, after being implicated by a witness and lying at the Truth Reconciliation and Reparations Commission (TRRC).

“Interior Minister Yankuba Sonko’s position seems to be untenable after being implicated for not only participating in a cover up in the killing of the West African migrants, but for lying to the TRRC. He has no Choice but to either resign or be sacked,” former Information Minister wrote on his Facebook timeline.

Jawo widely known as ‘DA’ made these remarks, after the former Officer Commanding investigation at the National Intelligence Agency NIA Aziz Hydara told the Truth Commission earlier today that Yankuba Sonko in his capacity as Crimes Management Coordinator [CMC] at the police led a team that deliberately deleted every available information on the movement of scores of West African migrants, who were later killed in the country in 2005 on the orders of former President Yahya Jammeh.
