Well, what do you know Gambias Energy Minister just discovered there can be no development without electricity and water. Now, she tells us. She made this profound and earth-shaking discovery when she was on tour of Kotu Power Station where she was greeted with an empty foundation (platform) built in 1990 meant to accommodate G5 DANIDA engine. The Danish stopped procuring Engine No.5 when the soldiers with a difference seized power illegally. When Jammeh finally secured the necessary funds 20 years hence, he insists that one Mr. Bazzi be awarded the contract. A NAWEC engineer, Im told, has absconded because he refused to rig the tender in favor of one of Jammehs cronies. Meanwhile, Greater Banjul remains in the dark, literally and figuratively.
