A stabbing in Latrikunda German. Another in Piccadilly. Another in Mandinaba. A fatal altercation in Fajara. A young man killed in Brikama. Each notification deepened the same unsettling feeling: something is changing in our communities, and many people no longer feel safe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The police insist that crime is on the decrease. The public insists that it is not. Both may be telling a version of the truth. Official figures capture only what is reported, and many crimes never reach a police station. Meanwhile, social media now delivers every stabbing to the entire nation in real time, so insecurity is felt more widely even where incidents are local. But this argument over statistics misses the point. When a government has to reassure its citizens that they are safer than they feel, it has already lost something more important than the argument. It has lost trust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I served in the Gambia Police Force. I have sat on both sides of this debate, and I want to offer a harder diagnosis than the one currently on offer from either the state or the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>Crime is the symptom, not the disease\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>The young men committing these crimes were not born violent. They are the products of conditions we have allowed to fester.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consider what the data tells us. The Gambia Labour Force Survey 2025 found that 41.3 percent of young Gambians aged 15 to 35 are not in employment, education or training. The figure that should alarm us more sits inside that number: of these young people, only about one in ten is looking for work. More than six in ten have stopped looking altogether. That is not unemployment statistic. It is a depressing statistic. It describes a generation that no longer believes effort will be rewarded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Layer onto this the drugs now circulating in our communities, the cost of living, and the daily spectacle of comfortable impunity for those who misuse public resources. A young man in Tallinding watches officials implicated in corruption face no consequence, and then he is told to respect the law. The law he sees applies downward but never upward. We should not be surprised when he concludes that the rules are for the powerless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So yes, the robberies, the stabbings and the violence in our homes are outcomes. They are the visible fever of an untreated illness: blocked opportunity, eroded faith in the system, and the normalisation of getting away with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>But the symptom is now a disease of its own\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>Here is where I must complicate my own argument, because the structural explanation, left on its own, becomes an excuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most poor, jobless, frustrated young Gambians harm no one. Poverty does not hold a knife. If deprivation alone caused violence, our crime rate would have exploded decades ago. Something else has changed, and we need to be honest about what.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, violence feeds itself. One stabbing convinces ten boys to carry knives for protection. Once knives are common, ordinary quarrels that once ended in bruises now end in funerals. The violence has begun to detach from its original causes and reproduce itself through fear, retaliation and status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Second, the drug economy generates its own violence. This is not only about intoxication. Illegal markets cannot settle disputes in court, so they settle them in the street. Where drug distribution takes root, violence follows as a business practice, not an emotional outburst.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Third, our informal defences have weakened. The compound, the elders, the neighbour who knew whose son you were: these once did more policing than the police. Rapid urbanisation along the Kombo corridor has produced dense, anonymous communities where that quiet guardianship no longer operates, and nothing has replaced it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fourth, failed migration compounds the strain. Immigration records show thousands of young Gambians, overwhelmingly men, returned from transit countries in recent years, many carrying debt, shame and trauma back into the very conditions they fled. The backway does not relieve pressure on our society. It recycles it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And a caution: the violence in our homes follows its own logic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Domestic violence is not robbery by another name. Economic stress aggravates it, but it is rooted in how we raise men, how we treat women, and what happens when humiliation absorbed outside the home is discharged inside it. Jobs alone will not fix it, and we should stop pretending otherwise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>The two impunities\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>Pull these threads together, and a pattern emerges. The Gambia does not have a crime problem. It has a consequences problem, and it runs in both directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the top, there are no reliable consequences for corruption and abuse of office. At the bottom, there are no reliable consequences for street violence, because our criminal justice chain is slow, under-resourced and inconsistent. Cases drag for years. Investigations stall for want of forensic capacity. Suspects cycle through remand and back to the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These two impunities feed each other. Elite impunity destroys the moral authority of the law. Street impunity destroys its practical authority. A state that punishes neither the minister nor the mugger reliably should not wonder why both multiply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is also why the growing calls to bring back the death penalty, however understandable the grief behind them, aim at the wrong target. Criminologists have known for decades that the certainty of punishment deters crime far more than its severity. A young man does not calculate the difference between twenty years and the gallows. He calculates whether he will be caught at all, and today the honest answer is: probably not, and if caught, not soon, and if tried, not swiftly. Hanging a handful of convicts while the system that lets most offenders walk stays broken would be theatre, not policy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>What would seriousness look like?\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>If the state wishes to be taken seriously on crime, four things would show it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Publish the data. The police release case updates but not systematic, disaggregated crime statistics. We cannot debate whether crime is rising or falling because the state controls the evidence. A government confident in its record publishes it. One that does not, manages perceptions instead. This is the same accountability gap we see elsewhere: the state releases what flatters and withholds what would allow scrutiny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fix the certainty of consequence. Invest in investigation, forensics, and case management so that an arrest leads to trial, and a trial leads to judgment within months, not years. This is less dramatic and far more effective than all these patrols.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prosecute upward. Nothing would restore the moral authority of the law faster than visible, fair consequences for corruption in high places. Every anti-crime speech delivered while audit findings gather dust teaches young people exactly what the state values.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rebuild community policing, not as public relations, but as neighbourhood partnerships where citizens know their officers, share information, and intervene before disputes become crimes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Treat the causes as a security policy. The 41.3 percent NEET (Not in Employment, Education or Training) figure is a national security indicator. So is the drug supply chain. So are the returnees arriving home with nothing. A serious crime strategy would bring the Ministry of Interior together with the ministries responsible for youth, trade and education, because no number of arrests can fix a problem whose roots are joblessness, hopelessness and lost trust in the system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the former regime, order rested on fear. We dismantled that, and rightly so. But fear was never replaced with the thing that keeps free societies safe: institutions that people trust and consequences that people believe in. That is the unfinished business of our transition, and the young men bleeding in our streets are its cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The crime wave is not an interruption of our national story. It is a chapter of it. And it will not end until the law in The Gambia means the same thing on Bijilo and Brufut heights as it does in Latrikunda German or Brikama Duruma Kolong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","the-two-impunities-what-the-rise-in-violent-crime-is-really-telling-us",{"id":60,"createdAt":61,"updatedAt":61,"name":62,"slug":63},"284988d3-5df0-4450-885b-c72339b3e569","2026-05-27T05:54:43.719Z","EFCC","efcc",[65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72],"two","impunities","what","rise","violent","crime","really","telling",null,{"id":75,"createdAt":76,"updatedAt":77,"name":78,"image":79,"slug":80},"85694ad4-e683-4c41-aa94-cd22c806fd2b","2026-03-30T20:15:32.274Z","2026-04-20T09:36:11.000Z","The

It has strengthened our ability to identify organisations genuinely at risk of abuse, while ensuring that the overwhelming majority of legitimate non-profit organisations can continue their vital work without unnecessary regulatory burdens,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He stressed that the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Recommendation 8 was not intended to regulate or restrict all non-profit organisations but requires countries to identify only those organisations that may be vulnerable to terrorist financing abuse and apply proportionate, risk-based measures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He described civil society organisations as indispensable partners in delivering humanitarian assistance, education, healthcare, support for internally displaced persons, youth empowerment and conflict response, adding that they remain critical to safeguarding peace, resilience and sustainable development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Also speaking, the Executive Director of Spaces for Change (S4C), Victoria Ibezim-Ohaeri, said reforms introduced over the past decade have substantially improved relations between regulators and non-profit organisations, while addressing unintended consequences that previously constrained legitimate charitable activities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>As organisers of the event, she recalled that early engagements on the implementation of FATF Recommendation 8 were characterised by tension and mistrust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>According to her, sustained dialogue between government institutions and civil society has since produced landmark reforms, including Nigeria’s standalone terrorist financing risk assessment of the non-profit sector, the repeal of provisions that classified NPOs as obliged reporting entities under anti-money laundering laws and the country’s eventual compliance rating on FATF Recommendation 8.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Ibezim-Ohaeri said the current leadership of SCUML was consolidating those gains by promoting financial inclusion for non-profit organisations while addressing operational challenges arising from the implementation of anti-money laundering measures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>She noted that although the reforms were still evolving, Nigeria’s experience was already providing useful lessons for several African countries, including Ghana, The Gambia, Togo and Burkina Faso, adding that the Abuja conference was designed to bring global conversations on AML\u002FCFT implementation closer to Africa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Delivering the keynote address, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms while Countering Terrorism, Prof. Ben Saul, said governments must avoid treating the entire non-profit sector as vulnerable to terrorist financing. “In fact, most NPOs do not pose any risk of terrorist financing at all,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Saul explained that the revised FATF Recommendation 8 emphasises that only organisations falling within the FATF definition of non-profit organisations and found to be at risk should be subjected to proportionate regulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He warned that excessive compliance requirements often divert scarce resources from humanitarian work, peacebuilding, human rights protection and efforts to prevent violent extremism, while in some jurisdictions anti-terrorism measures have been used to suppress legitimate civil society activities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He urged governments to ensure that risk assessments are evidence-based, regularly updated and developed in close consultation with non-profit organisations, stressing that respect for human rights ultimately strengthens the effectiveness of counter-terrorism efforts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Earlier, Chairman of the Board of Spaces for Change, Samuel Diminas, reiterated that Africa continues to lose more than $88 billion annually to illicit financial flows, describing the figure as resources that could otherwise have been invested in schools, healthcare and other development priorities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Diminas said the conference was intended to strengthen collaboration among governments, regulators, financial institutions and civil society, insisting that effective anti-money laundering compliance works best through partnership rather than confrontation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He added that the discussions would focus on practical reforms capable of strengthening the integrity of Africa’s financial systems while safeguarding the civic space needed for legitimate non-profit organisations to continue supporting development across the continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","efcc-terrorism-financing-risk-test-helped-nigeria-identify-vulnerable-npos",{"id":60,"createdAt":61,"updatedAt":61,"name":62,"slug":63},[63,1666,1667,1668,1669,1670,256,1671,1672,1673],"terrorism","financing","risk","test","helped","identify","vulnerable","npos","https:\u002F\u002Fglobal.ariseplay.com\u002Famg\u002Fwww.thisdaylive.com\u002Fuploads\u002FEFCC-Administrative-Building.jpg",{"id":1618,"createdAt":1619,"updatedAt":1620,"name":1621,"image":1622,"slug":1623},5,"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.thisdaylive.com\u002F2026\u002F07\u002F16\u002Fefcc-terrorism-financing-risk-test-helped-nigeria-identify-vulnerable-npos\u002F",{"id":1679,"createdAt":1680,"updatedAt":1681,"title":1682,"excerpt":1683,"content":1684,"slug":1685,"topic":1686,"tags":1687,"image":1695,"author":73,"feed":1696,"views":1703,"type":82,"readTime":1703,"externalSourceUrl":1704},"138ebcff-bc58-4869-9d83-56ecf42c1a26","2026-07-15T19:57:00.517Z","2026-07-16T03:19:25.000Z","Full

Assets at Azbir Arena, including Azbir Hotel, Printing Press, Gallery, Gardens, Mosque, Azbir Clothing, and Azbir Pharmacy and Supermarket, were equally forfeited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Additional assets affected by the order include the Al-Afiya Energy tanker garage, Rayhaan Security House, an unfinished two-storey plaza in Birnin

January 6, 2026, when Justice Emeka Nwite granted an interim forfeiture order following an ex parte application filed by EFCC counsel, Ekele Iheanacho (SAN).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Following the order, the EFCC published notices in national newspapers inviting interested parties to show cause why the assets should not be permanently

Justice Abdulmalik reserved judgment before delivering her ruling on Wednesday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>In her judgment, the court held that the EFCC had sufficiently established that the 48 properties were reasonably suspected to have been acquired with proceeds of unlawful activities and that the respondents failed to prove otherwise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The judge ruled that the respondents failed to discharge the evidential burden required of them because they could not establish the legitimate sources of the funds used to acquire the properties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The court further held that the respondents merely claimed ownership of the assets without presenting evidence showing they were purchased with funds from lawful sources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>According to the court, non-conviction-based forfeiture proceedings require respondents to provide evidence of the lawful sources of funds used to acquire
