According to credible reports, dictator Yahya Jammeh’s aircrafts have recently been having endless  electrical problems, one of them was flown back to Banjul on June 24, after it went through major maintenance in France. The old Boeing 727, 100 was prepared to transport The First Lady, Zineb Yahya Jammeh and her entourage to Saudi Arabia for ‘Umrah’. Due to technical problems, the flight could not take off the ground which prompted the dictator to dismiss and detained five senior officials from both The Civil Aviation Authority and The Gambia International Airlines blaming them for not properly maintaing his aircrafts. The First Lady later chartered a flight from The United Arab Emirates at the tune of $300, 000 to travel to Saudi.
