Shortly after that news broke, Sarjo started long phone conversations with one Abdoulie Njie, a brother to Vice President Njie Saidy and one Baboucarr Puye Jobarteh, a protocol officer who also worked with Jallow in Ethiopia. Few days after the phone calls, it was said that dictator Jammeh sent an air ticket for Jallow to travel to The Gambia where he was said to have been offered a job by him.

 

According to Jainaba Bah, wife of Sarjo Jallow in an interview on The Fatu Network, she was there when the phone calls with Njie and Jobarteh took place. She recalled talking to Njie who sympathized with her on the loss of her grandmother.

At that point she explained that she became suspicious and advised her husband to leave the house and to not spend the night over there. Jallow she said wasn’t afraid about the situation and he mentioned to her that he has no reason to be worried because he did nothing wrong.

 

On reports that Jallow was offered a job as deputy foreign minister at The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Jainaba said her husband mentioned that to her but added that he declined the offer based on his plans to retire after serving his country for over a decade. Her last conversation with Jallow she said was on a Thursday, a day before his disappearance.

Arrangements for his trip was made by Abdoulie Njie and Baboucarr Puye Jobarteh and his ticket was bought by dictator Yahya Jammeh. He was also renting at one of the houses belonging to The Vice President of the country which makes people wonder who will break into such a property which is also said to be housing some members of The Gambia Armed Forces.
