Chief, in the UAE, Fridays are holidays while Sundays are the work days.

In jammeh's case, Gambians work 4 days and are off 3 days.

my bro I get, but Gambia no make dia SUNDAY a work day, hence lower productivity and income (underutilised), it is allowed in UAE because it is a predominantly Muslim state and they made their Sundays working days (unlike gambia), if given the chance, buhari would do same thing UAE is doing even as Nigeria is not predominantly Muslim. U going for the protest?

chief. the Gambia is 90% Muslim but i understand your point. for a poor country, it makes no sense to be on holiday 3 out 7 days every week.
