Gamcel's Money Mystery Raises Red Flags.
A key money manager at Gamcel has shared news about missing funds at the Kanifing Municipal Council. Mustapha Conteh spoke up at a special meeting about odd payments tied to Joana Hall's debt.
The KMC said it would pay Gamcel D154,000 for Hall's bond. But Conteh found no trace of this money in Gamcel's books, even after the KMC wrote a check.
The case became more bizarre when records showed different amounts. Gamcel's staff chief said they received D100,000 in 2019, yet they still needed D54,000 more—not the D154,000 the KMC claimed.
These facts point to big problems with the KMC's money management. The gap between what was paid and what was owed has sparked concern about the council's spending habits.
Conteh must come back to tell more about what he found. His words have already shown cracks in how local leaders manage public funds. This case makes clear that someone needs to examine how these councils work with money.
The truth about the missing funds remains unclear. But one thing stands firm—the public needs answers about where their money goes. The next round of talks might shed light on this puzzle, which has shaken trust in local leadership.
