NVIDIA added 11 PC games to its GeForce NOW cloud streaming service. Hunt: Showdown 1896 and Forever Skies led the pack of new additions.
The horror extraction shooter from Crytek received major updates last August, including DLSS Super Resolution support, DirectX 12, HDR capabilities, and enhanced lighting effects. Despite laying off 15% of staff earlier this year and pausing Crysis development, Crytek keeps updating Hunt: Showdown thanks to its strong player community. Players can expect a new DLC called Last of the Herd soon, featuring the Plains Warden character and a Herd Thinner hunting bow.
Far From Home finally released version 1.0 of Forever Skies after almost two years in early access. The sci-fi survival game comes packed...
Two young Gambian soccer players helped Jordanian team Inglizia Football Academy win the 2025 Dubai Mina Cup Under-12 tournament. Modou Gibba from Logicsport Academy and Abdoulie from Fajikunda United Academy played key roles as their team defeated Norwich City 1-0 in the final match last weekend.
The Jordanian academy displayed great skill and determination throughout the competition. They earned a narrow but well-deserved victory against the English team. Both Gambian youngsters caught the attention of talent scouts with their abilities on the field. Observers noted their technical skills, discipline, and game awareness during matches.
Their performance highlights not just their talent but also shows how Gambian youth soccer...
Mai Fatty questioned spending billions on prosecuting Jammeh instead of helping victims. He never suggested forgiveness, just practical spending choices. Sierra Leone spent $300 million prosecuting only 13 people through their Special Court, but allocated less than $5 million for over 32,000 war victims. Most victims received around $2,000 or services like counseling.
The conversation about money priorities makes sense. The Barrow government probably lacks funds either way. U.S. budget cuts might affect the international aid that The Gambia hopes to receive. Still, Fatty contradicts himself when partnering with APRC, whose leaders call past rapes and killings mere "mistakes."
Fatty urges people to move past divisions, but allied...
The Supreme Court ruled yesterday that government officials broke the law when they forced their way into Kanifing Municipal Council offices. Officials tried to reinstall Sainabou Martin Sonko as CEO despite her administrative leave. Justice Cherno Jallow stated that the Minister for Lands and the police chief violated constitutional rights. The court said these actions went against KMC's legal right to manage itself.
The case began in February 2023, when KMC sued three government entities. The court found that sending armed officers to help Sonko take over was illegal. It also declared unlawful the forced transfer of documents and accounts to Sonko. KMC has the legal authority to handle its internal affairs, including staff...
Five-a-side football makes a comeback in Mbare, Zimbabwe. This smaller version of soccer, also called Futsal, had disappeared due to financial challenges. The sport shows renewed life as Northern Region Futsal games return to Mbare. Sunshine Stars won the championship two weeks ago at Stodart Netball Complex, defeating Glen Stars 4-0 in their first season.
Northern Region Futsal chairman Callistus Keche sees progress but believes the sport needs proper support from businesses. He notes that Futsal helps young people avoid drugs. Keche hopes players can join World Cup qualifiers or face international teams soon. The next season begins in May, leaving little time to find financial backing.
The organization lacks sponsors but continues...
US courts found Michael Sang Correa guilty of torture last week. The former member of the Jammeh death squad hurt five people who allegedly joined a failed 2006 coup attempt. Justice Minister Dawda Jallow said this verdict shows the government wants to address crimes from that era. Many Gambians felt relief at the news, especially victims and human rights supporters who demand more trials.
Jallow thanked American officials for their dedication to justice and called the conviction a sign of hope for those who suffered under Jammeh. The minister promised that human rights abusers would face consequences everywhere. His office plans to create a Special Prosecutor position to handle cases from the Truth Commission investigations.

The IMF struck a deal with Gambian officials to release part of the $100.9 million in funding approved last year. If the IMF board approves, the agreement would free up $16.8 million. A separate agreement might provide $65 million to help the country handle climate change issues.
The economy grew about 6 percent in 2024, thanks to tourism and construction. Visitors almost returned to the numbers seen before the pandemic. Money sent home from Gambians living abroad also increased. Inflation fell to 9.1 percent in March but remains higher than the central bank wants.
The government spent more money than planned in 2024. This happened because of unbudgeted expenses, transfers tied to earmarked funds, and faster spending on donor-funded...
The Banjul High Court freed four Portuguese women Monday but ordered five Gambian airport workers to defend themselves in a drug case. Justice Ebrima Jaiteh announced his decision after reviewing defense arguments that claimed insufficient evidence existed against their clients.
Authorities charged these nine people with three drug offenses. Police arrested the Portuguese nationals - Vilma Cabral Roel, Ana Patricia Dos Santo Furtado, Simara Nadiya Martins, and Miriam Maria Mendes - as they prepared to board a flight to Barcelona last June. The case also involved five Gambian airport employees named Seedy Ceesay, Lamin Ceesay, Yaya K. Jatta, Modou Bojang, and Muhammed Jallow.
Judge Jaiteh ruled prosecutors failed to establish a basic...
The High Court ruled yesterday on a case filed by more than 80 Standard Chartered Bank employees. They asked the court to block the bank's sale to Access Bank Gambia Limited until their lawsuit ends. The court decided not to stop the sale completely but ordered SCB to put D250 million into an account managed by the Sheriff of The Gambia.
This money will pay employee compensation if SCB leaves before the main case finishes. The account must earn interest. Lawyer Ebrahim Sanneh represented the employees, with Ida Drameh speaking for the bank. The court said employees met all legal requirements for an injunction against SCB, but noted that stopping the sale might harm public interest since the process is almost complete.
Ebrima Jatta and...
