#Repost @opensocietyfoundations with @jasonflorio ・・・ Ngoi, a protestor, was arrested and brutally tortured by the Jammeh regime. During her incarceration, Ngoi says, she witnessed the murder of opposition activist Solo Sandeng at the hands of a Jammeh-run assassination team. _ From 1994 to 2017, Yahya Jammeh was the president of the Gambia, a role he maintained through a combination of corruption, repression, and outright brutality. After losing reelection in 2016, and after he lost a standoff with regional forces, Jammeh was forced into exile. Now that he's finally out of power, victims of Jammeh's dictatorship are stepping forward and demanding justice. To learn more about these brave people and their stories, please follow the link in our bio. _ Please see link in @floriotravels/@jasonflorio bio for more about this project and our GoFundMe campaign 'Gambia - Victims, and Resisters of a a Regime' #portraits4positivechange _ _ #opensociety #thegambia #jammeh #jammeh2justice #victimsofjammeh #victimsandresisters #dictatorship #humanrights #activists #freedomtoprotest #freedomofexpression #gambiajusticemustprevail
