Gambia will deal with it´s past

The Gambian government decided on Monday that the country will set up a Truth and Reconciliation Commission to deal with the period from 1994 to 2017 when Yahya Jammeh was president, according to Reuters.

"A Truth and Reconciliation Comnission with appropiate reparations for victims will be set up within the next six months and public hearings will be expected to commence by the end of the year", justice minister Abubacarr Tambadou said according to Reuters.

Yahya Jammeh is accused of kiling and torturing political opponents and the commission will let people confess their crimes and victims speak of what they have gone through.
The current president is Amada Barrow.
