The squad were flying from their capital city of Banjul to the Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast when the serious issue occurred.

Former Manchester United player Saidy Janko was among the players on board the aircraft and shared a video on Instagram of the players getting off the plane, alongside the caption: "Unacceptable. After travelling 32 hours in total from Saudi Arabia (Training Camp) to The Gambia with long layovers in Istanbul and Casablanca, we were supposed to fly from Gambia to Ivory Coast for the AFCON today. "As soon as we entered the small plane that was hired to fly us, we noticed the immense heat that left us dripping in sweat. "It was assured to us by the crew that the air conditioning would start once we are in the sky. "The inhumane heat mixed with the occurring lack of oxygen left many people with strong headaches and extreme dizziness. "Furthermore, people started falling deeply asleep minutes after entering the aircraft/takeoff."

South Africa’s luxury goods tycoon Johann Rupert and his family have taken the crown as Africa’s top billionaire after Nigeria’s Aliko Dangote lost the prime spot. According to the latest Forbes billionaire ranking, Mr Rupert and his family are currently the 201st wealthiest in the world, while Mr Dangote is the 219th. The valuation of the wealth of Mr Dangote, who held the first place on the African billionaire ranking for more than 12 years, came under pressure after a major devaluation of the naira by roughly 40 per cent last June and the free fall that followed left his wealth much weaker in dollar terms. Mr Dangote earns the bulk of his fortune in naira, which finished 2023 as the third worst-performing currency in the world of the 151 currencies tracked by Bloomberg.
