According to our Yundum Barracks informer who goes by the pen name "OX "( Officer "X") Captain Baboucarr Sanyang has been moved to Kanilai as Guards Commander of that Presidential palace nestled in the thick bushes of Foni in close proximity to southern Senegal. Sanyang says OX, was detained at Mile Two Central Prisons twice; first in November 1994 and again, in January, 1995 together with Ex-vice Chairman Sana B. Sabally and the late Interior Minister, Cpt. Sadibou Haidara. On both incidents Captain Sanyang was accused of conspiracy to commit treason through coup de tat.Until recently says OX, Sanyang who maintains a low profile demeanor has been a training officer at the Fajara Army Training School following the departure of Major Ousman Badjie to Sudan's troubled Dafour region on observer mission.
According to OX, this latest appointment of Captain Sanyang may be the last sraw to break the camel's back as he is one of the most monitored officers in the entire army."I predict that pretty soon, he will be in a collision course with guys like Musa Jammeh who do not tolerate men from the pre-coup Gambia National Army of which Captain Sanyang is a graduate." Explains OX, Musa Jammeh who President Jammeh nick named for Uganda's brutal Maliya Mungu is a master framer and will leave no stone unturned to discredict an already, suspicious Cpt. Sambou in the eyes of the President. "Comrade be careful" OX admonishes Cpt. Sanyang
Meanwhile, says OX, Captain Hinnah Sambou has been replaced by Cpt. Gaino as Aide de Camp to President Jammeh and many more surprises are abound in the coming weeks reveals our most credible informer in the army.
