Sports Tribunal was to independently establish facts in GNOC row - Minister Jammeh

Youth and Sports Minister: Alieu Jammeh
As part of his quest to seek reconciliation and unity among sports associations affiliated to the Gambia National Olympic Committee, GNOC, Sports minister Alieu Jammeh, for the first time, publicly revealed the circumstances that led to the establishment of the Sports Tribunal, which looked into the GNOC elections of 2011.

According to the minister, the move was part of his ministry’s drive to establish the truth of the matter through independent investigation by neutral people, following persistent unhealthy wrangling and even accusations against the Ministry for allegedly siding with one side.
The tribunal spent weeks looking through volumes of GNOC and IOC documents, as well as interviewing dozens of people, before coming up with a comprehensive report and recommendations for action.
