The Assistant PRO of the Gambia Immigration Department, revealed that four(4) batches of 648 Gambian migrants have so far been returned from Libya in just five(5) months, but there are still more Gambians to be repatriated. As reports unveil, many Gambians are currently stranded and suffering in Libya.
Mr. Ismaila Jammeh made these statements at his office in Banjul on Friday 2 May, 2017.
