The
new leadership of the Gambia Police Force has reshuffled the top echelon of the
force by redeploying several police commissioners and deputy commissioners from
one office or station to another.
According
to sources, as part of the shake up, the chief of police operation Commissioner
Landing Bojang has been re-deployed to Banjul Station as the Commissioner of
Police Banjul Division.
Bojang
is replaced by Commissioner Modou Gaye, who was the commissioner of Planning
and Policy Implementation.
Similarly,
CMC Assistant Commissioner Bubacarr Sarr has been redeployed as the new deputy
CMC; he is replaced by Commissioner Demba Sowe who was commissioner INTERPOL
and CIU.
Also,
Deputy Commissioner Abdoulie Sanneh, commissioner of police at the Airport, has
been moved to man the INTERPOL and CIU as the commissioner of police. The former Assistant Commissioner Pateh Bah
is redeployed as Commissioner of Police at the airport.
When
contacted, police PRO Inspector Foday Conta confirmed the story, saying it was
just a normal routine in police operations that sometimes officers are bound to
reshuffle from one office to the other for continuous positive work delivery,
effectiveness and efficiency.
