Gambian ex-governor says he feared for his family’s life under deposed president
The former governor of the Central Bank of the Gambia has testified that he obeyed the orders of the country’s deposed president out of fear for his family members’ lives.

Government accounts should have been opened on the instructions of the country’s accountant-general, Colley said.
