        @BBCBreaking Hope the attempted Gambian coup is not a replica of the one in Ghana under Nkrumah and the then Congo under Lumumba?

        @georessah @BBCBreaking Its always easy to be erratic and remain gullible in the face of brazen manipulations. How unfortunate.

        @LA_Denizen Gambia is named after the river flooding through the country. The river'r name is the Gamabia, hence the name of the country

        @ndowsi I understand it's named for the river but I prefer the country name without the definite article, but I know it's common practice.
