Africa-Press – Gambia. CLARIFICATION ON THE STATUS OF THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY JOINT COMMITTEE’S REPORT ON THE ALLEGED ILLEGAL IMPORTATION AND SALE OF PETROLEUM PRODUCTS
The Government of The Gambia has taken note of recent commentary and public appeals circulating in both social and mainstream media, calling for immediate executive action regarding the findings of a report from the Joint Committee of FPAC/PEC of the National Assembly inquiry into the alleged illegal Importation and Sale of Petroleum Products.
In the interest of transparency, accuracy, and respect for institutional processes, the Government wishes to clarify the following:
The Government reiterates its unwavering respect for the principle of separation of powers, particularly the respect for the oversight role of the National Assembly and remains committed to upholding the principles of accountability, due process, and the rule of law. However, executive responses must be grounded in formally adopted resolutions or reports from the Assembly, and not on unofficial, leaked, or internal Committee documents.
The public is therefore urged to exercise caution, patience, and restraint in interpreting unofficial documents and to allow due process to take its rightful course.
The Government assures the people of The Gambia that it remains attentive to developments in this matter and will take all necessary and appropriate action once the proper parliamentary procedures have been concluded and official communication has been received.
